Merry Christmas

   I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! We have been visiting with family the last couple of weeks, so I haven't posted much. As soon as we get back to Italy, I will have a lot to share! :) Here's our Christmas cards we sent out to family this year. I hope you like them! They are my favorite ones we have sent so far.

Playground With Daddy

On Saturday morning, Aaron took Connor to the playground by our house while I did laundry and cleaned up the house. He had fun swinging on the new swing set and picking flowers. He took a couple really cute pictures that I have to share!

 Having fun on the swing.

Dinner And A Stroll Around Downtown

    Last night we went on a double date with our good fiends {and our littles} to a sushi restaurant. We have heard a lot of good things about it, so we wanted to try it out. We got there as soon as it opened, but were told we would have to be done by 8 since they had a group with a reservation for that time. We didn't think it would take us an hour and a half to eat, so we were okay with staying. The food was pretty good, but we ended up having to rush towards the end because it was getting close to 8. It really wasn't our fault that it took so long for them to make our food...

 My cute dates!

Getting Ready For Christmas

    Since Thanksgiving, we have been very busy! We have spent a lot of time getting ready for Christmas {yay!} and doing lots of running around. On Black Friday, we went to the PX to see if we could get any good deals, but they were out of what I wanted. Then we went to Ikea to get some of Connor's gifts. He had fun running around the store with his daddy.

Our Friendsgiving

   We had a wonderful "Friendsgiving" for our first Thanksgiving out of the states. Our friends Lucas and Tawsha invited us, along with a bunch of Aaron's coworkers, to their house for dinner. There were about 30 adults and 8 kids all in one house! They live in the mountains almost an hour away from us, and have a beautiful view driving up to their house.

The best pic we could get from inside the car.
