Sisters

We were trying to get pictures of all the girls.

Annabelle with her necklace she made out of dental floss and hair pieces.

Eedie and her naked bum self.

Vivian at one month.

Such a happy baby.

We accidentally got these first few pictures of them all together.

Then we put them in some different clothes to try to get a good picture.

And they were done.

Just around...

Here are a few random pictures from before we left for Salt Lake. I'm way behind!

Having some of Dad's root beer.

Eedie always wants more.

We went to the library and Annabelle was at one of the computers looking so studious.

Making sure her hands are in the correct position, I guess.

Taking notes.

Thanksgiving and Gingerbread Houses

We had a nice little Thanksgiving. We cooked the best turkey we've had since we've been married. We brined it the night before and that made a huge difference. We also had some vegan potatoes (they had almond milk in them), some quick yeast rolls (we forgot about rolls until the last minute), cranberries and a relish tray.

The spread.

 

Delish turkey.

Don't worry, she's not eating Metamucil. I'm sure she put some toy or something in there.

Eating Thanksgiving dinner.

Here at the Jones House, we like making gingerbread houses each year around Christmas. We actually got this kit from NeNe and Pappy last year, but we had already made some. So we decided to save it for this year. Candy dosen't go bad, right?

Dad was having a hard time with the icing at first. NeNe and Pappy sent it in the mail so some parts were broken making it a little harder to construct than normal.

But finally it got it working alright!

These two loved decorating.

They kept eating the candy.

I guess year old candy isn't that bad.

Lake Okutama

We took a little trip up to Lake Okutama before we left to go to Salt Lake for Christmas. It's about an hour and a half drive. There's some great scenery and a perfect trip with a newborn.

This was on the way up to the lake. It's not every day we get to see greenery around here. It takes about an hour to see nature like this.

At the lake there was a very accurate sun dial.

Even with Eedie's little body, the time was right.

Pretty mountains.

We should have grabbed Vivian to be in the picture.

We  wanted proof that she was actually there. =)
