Life is good!

After a couple of stressful weeks, things have finally slowed down and we are enjoying the Christmas season! Andy recovered from his oral surgery and went back to work. I'm so thankful that it wasn't as serious as it could have been. He was in a lot of pain for a while but nothing like before. We had a pretty laid back Thanksgiving. We made an appearance at the big family Thanksgiving, but were only there a couple hours. We stopped at the video store and spent the rest of the day in bed watching movies and looking through the "Black Friday" ads. We went to Walmart at midnight and scored some awesome deals on Christmas presents. Then we went home for a while before heading to Target at 5! The crowds were insane but we had a good time and found some greats deals!

We got our Christmas tree up last weekend. It's only a 4 foot tree and it's sitting on a table out of tail-wagging reach! This was Maddie's first tree and she wasn't sure what to think of it. The next night we went out for a little while and came home to find every ornament on the bottom half of the tree pulled off and chewed into millions of tiny pieces. We were definitely not happy about that. Now whenever we both leave we have to move the tree into our bedroom and shut the door. Not ideal but the only way to ensure that our ornaments live to see another Christmas!

I hope everyone has a great Christmas! (in case I don't post again before then)
