Our Nemesis

Our nemesis is a woodpecker. The woodpecker loves our house and loves to peck at it over and over and over. When it gets done, it lands on our deck to show off. The only ones in our house who enjoy the woodpecker is our cats.

This bird is noisy!

Christmas, 2025

I didn't take a lot of pictures on Christmas this year, but I took one of Katie with a bigger gift. She was very excited to get a new desk chair that was more comfortable than her other one.

It's a win when your work chair comes with it's own foot stool!

The North Pole Village

Jennifer and Katie made sure to put up the North Pole Village at Jennifer's house. It takes a long time, but it sure is cute!

I loved the final result!

An Advent Calendar

Katie always has fun with an advent calendar. This year she received one that had lots of lotions, bath bombs, and other similar items in it.

This was my first gift from my calendar.

It was full of pretty silver boxes!

A New Favorite

Katie recently got interested in antique stores, and she found one that she really likes.

I was looking for some good vinyls for Jennifer and me.

Decorating for the Holidays

Katie is always excited when it's time to decorate Jennifer's tree because hers goes up way before ours. Ours goes up last minute because the cats can't seem to leave it alone.

Jennifer's Disney tree makes me happy!

Thanksgiving 2025

You can't let an old tradition die. We now know that Katie can no longer fit in the stuffing-mixing pot, but we can't stop putting her in it anyway!

This isn't my favorite tradition, but I play along with it for everyone else!
