Preparing for Christmas

It's another day... we put up some Christmas decorations last night, so that was fun. We haven't gotten a tree yet, but we will soon- Luke gets VERY excited about Christmas decorations... almost as excited as he gets about the weather. Before Jonah went to bed last night, Luke read him a picture book called Goodnight Moon, and it was so adorable. He looked at the pages the entire time! He seemed to love all the colors. We'll read a different book tonight.

Today I will still be doing some laundry from the weekend, and I've been looking through Taste of Home magazines for new recipes. I know... exciting! Tonight when Luke gets home from work we'll probably take a walk with Jonah since we haven't done that for a while. There's a basketball game going on at the Grammar Prep School, so we'll walk there and watch part of the game. We've done that before, and Jonah seems to enjoy it! We hope you all have a great day... here are some more pictures from Thanksgiving. Enjoy!

All bundled up and ready to go

I'm going to post this up right now and try to post a video up separately. It just seems to take forever for the videos to load, so at least you can read this post and see pictures in the meantime. Hope all is well- you're all in our thoughts and prayers. Oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Grandma Alberti (one day belated, of course). We love you, Grandma, and hope you had a great birthday. Love to all of you!
