Work, work, work

So I recently got a job at Northeastern Counseling Center. My official title is support staff, but I just call myself the front desk person. I've been working for 1 1/2 weeks now and I love it! It's a great job and company. Last week we had a full staff meeting on my 3rd day at work. They gave me a Christmas bonus, 2 gift cards, a bottle of lotion, and they'll give me a new kindle after Christmas! I didn't think I'd get anything since I just started, but I was excited anyway. It's a full-time job so don't think I'm ignoring you if you call. Andy has been working a lot too. He finally got a week off and found out they're sending him to North Dakota for three weeks on the day after Christmas! So if any of you get lonely just know that I'm lonely too and I would love visitors. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge ;) That's what we've been up to lately. Work, work, work. Sorry there are no new pictures. I'll post some later!

Happy Thanksgiving and visit home!

This was our early Thanksgiving at mom and dad's. Andy had to work before and after Thanksgiving so we could only come out the week before. It was fun!

This is the kids table ;)

I could not get Emma to smile, but Alix was more than happy to pose for the picture

I finally told her to show her teeth, thinking she would smile, but she just opened up her mouth. It was so cute :)

Happy Thanksgiving from Vernal!

These are the placemats I made for dinner. It felt more like Thanksgiving with the decorations, but it wasn't the same without family there.

The feathers are little pockets to hold all the silverware. I thought they were so cute :)


The dinner table


And for dessert, Warm Cranberry Bread with Vanilla Sauce and Candied Cranberries. Yum yum yum! Even Andy liked it and he doesn't like fruit lol

Me and Coach Alsbury with her new baby. She's so cute!
