Pics/Videos of Christmas and details of our trip home to Montana are to come, but I couldn't resist posting this picture of Evelyn in her new Carhartt overalls (I know. SO CUTE, right?) that her daddy bought her for Christmas!

ADORABLE!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Decorating cookies!!

This weekend Evelyn had the experience of decorating Christmas cookies for the first time.  She had fun, but I think she enjoyed eating the frosting even more!! 

21 degrees...

So I spent the whole summer belly-aching about how hot my runs were. (And they were-- 92+ degrees with a "real feel" of near 100 degrees was very typical.)  And now, for my normal hilly 6 miler on Saturday it was only 21 degrees out and, despite wearing my normal winter running gear, I was FREEZING the whole time.   Oh Tennessee, how fickle your temperatures and how short your transition seasons are.  I'll say it. I miss the rainy, yet moderate winters of Portland. I do.

Just a brief complaint. Adorable pictures of Evelyn from this weekend are soon to come...

Christmas Tree Decorating

No doubt it is getting close to Christmas, no doubt we can't imagine life and the holidays without our little angel and no doubt that our little angel is entering the toddler stages of life!

We got our tree on Sunday and put the lights on and thought it might be fun to let Evelyn help us with the decorations. She is great at putting things away, taking things to the trash can, finding toys and so on. Only logical that this would work, right?

Maybe next year the ornaments will make it to the tree instead of make believe telephones and battles of will.

Neither wind, nor rain, nor freezing temperatures...

Can keep us from our favorite frozen yogurt spot!

Nothing like watching Sesame Street on mom's iPad on a Sunday morning in jammies.
