Peas are the grossest thing I have ever put in my mouth. Eww.
Thanks for hearing me out.

The Good, the Bad, the Hideously Ugly - The Bloom Christmas Party

I realize that Christmas has come and gone but I HAD to post these photos from the Bloom Christmas party. While we call Calvary Bible Church in Erie our home church, we visit Bloom in Denver whenever we are able to. Check out both websites if you have time. If you do not have a home church and live around these churches, we would love to see you! Service times and locations are on the websites.

Anywho - back to the party. Who doesn't love an ugly sweater party?

Adults, yes. Boring, no. The party decorations quickly turned into party hats. You can thank the mulled wine.

And then they started dancing. I wish I had a video camera!

You can't even imagine how funny it is to watch three people dance around with these huge tree's on their heads - unless you were there of course.

Other than the mulled wine [am I the only one who thinks its gross?], the food was amazing! In the photo below, David chows down on some yummy soup.

James chows down on some yummy formula while showing off his cute Christmas jammies.

Now we don our gay apparel. Fa la la la la la la la la.

Chuck wore a fetching vibrant blue and white, belly sweater.

Since Emily couldn't make it, Shawl wore one of his wife's darling sweaters. Unfortunately this photo does not show the fantastic flowers that wrap around the whole cardigan.

Here comes Brad, modeling a fantastic red sweater with a crocheted collar! Now that is something special. The plaid shirt underneath really makes it pop.

Stephanie wore a delightful oversized sweater with... Actually I don't know what it is on her sweater but it sure is festive!

Of course we cannot forget the wonderful founders of Bloom, Lisa and Michael Gungor! They wore coordinating knitted pullovers which featured some of Santa's helpers. Thanks for such a great time guys!

Also, check out their music at the links below. They are really amazing musicians.

Happy Anniversary to us!

Dearest Husband,

We did it. We survived. We've made it another year in one piece. We've moved. We moved again. We've dealt with job changes and losses. We had a baby. We've had trips and holidays. We've had laughter and we've had fights. It wasn't always easy and it wasn't always fun but well worth the time and effort to make our marriage wonderful. I love you and can't imagine doing life without you.

Happy Anniversary Hubby.

Did you know?

Did you know that our sweet baby boy is already six months old?

Did you know that he is already 27 1/2 inches long?

Did you know that he is eating solids like a champ?

Did you know that James loves to stand up and sit up?

And that he can sit up all by himself for a little while before falling over?

Did you know that he is 16 pounds and 15 ounces already?

Time flies.
