Winter Hiking


Hiking with Dan and Christa was very cold and fun! There's not much to do in Boone when it's cold so we took up an outdoor activity anway. The streams were all half frozen which made parts of the trail interesting-but exciting! We also went to woodlands(saw franklin and his fam), made yummy cookies, the boys played football and we had fun talking about all her wedding plans. What a great relaxing weekend with some good friends. Can't wait to do it again!

A Superferleuous Amount of Sugar Cookies!






Adam and I had fun making the first batch of christmas cookies,
well at least I did! He just loves to eat them. This is one of
my favorite traditions and I can't wait to make them at home
this year! Hope we can! It also reminds me of being with
Lindsey and Tara because we spent lots of time together
making these in Mn! Oh the good times...and simple pleasures!
I wish I could send you all some over email! We are going to have
to figure out a way to give these away! Ha!
