Where has the time gone...

I just noticed that it has been a week since I have been on here. I think I have been cooking or cleaning the entire time. Oh, except for eating and watching football and having family around. Good times.

True to form I forgot to take any pictures of our Thanksgiving. 

The only one I took was of Bobbi petting Watson. 

 So there you have it a photo of Thanksgiving. 

Mom, Dad, Ferne, Kathy, Charity and Haley Hamm, Jordan Leininger and our family all ate together. It was really fun and relaxing. Then Tom Hamm got off work and came out to join us in the eating of the leftovers. Then it was clean that mess up and start getting the food ready for "Tree Day". I tend to make up celebrations and "Tree Day" was invented when the girls were little as a fun time of decorating the tree and then I could give them a present. So we almost always make the Friday after Thanksgiving, Tree Day. Bryan, Bobbi and I all had tickets to the Husker game (Ashley and Jayme opted out) so we went to that and Ashley and Jayme stayed home and did a lot of food prep and watched the game on TV.

But before that I put the tree up and the lights on so that it is ready for the girls to hang ornaments on later. 

Then of course all the lights that I had on the top part of the tree didn't work, so off they came and new ones go on with a little help from Jayme. 

Here we are braving the weather...oh wait it was amazing weather. Very comfortable 47 degrees and we had seats in the sun so that was awesome! 20 rows up on the 50 yard line. Bobbi was directly across from us 7 rows up and on the 50 yard line and she had passes to the Cornhusker Club and special parking thanks to a friend. Watching the game is just so much more exciting when you actually know some of the kids.

This is all the seniors waiting for the rest of the team to come out. 

Tunnel walk...Let the game begin!

Then home, eat all the delicious appetizers that we can create, watch a  Christmas movie and decorate the tree. 

Ashley and Jayme decorating...

Bobbi not decorating, and we are ok with this because she is with us and since decorating isn't her thing or Bryan's we give them a pass on putting ornaments on the tree.

It is always such a fun day and made sweeter by all the girls being here laughing, talking and enjoying each other.
