Sledgehammer Fun

About a week ago Robert went over to his sister's new house to break down a wall so the garage could actually be used as a garage. Here he is hard at work:



I got bored with watching so I thought I would give it a try too:

Before

After
There is no "after" picture for this one, but the explosion was awesome.


This is with only the bottom row and clean up left to do.

I ended up breaking down quite a bit of the wall, and had a ton of fun doing it!

Christmas Time is Here

December has been great so far! We got all of my parents old lights for the house, so we spent the day after Thanksgiving putting those up. I wanted to post a picture but unfortunately I kept putting it off, and now some of our lights don't work cause we blew a fuse. So hopefully sometime before Christmas we will get it fixed and be able to post a picture. Meanwhile here is our tree. (Which we also got from my parents - it was lucky for us that they decided to get all new stuff this year)

I had my Christmas baking day on Friday and made fudge, peanut butter rice krispy treats, and no bake cookies. I didn't actually use my oven at all, so I don't know if I can really call it "baking" but I don't really know what else it would be so.... I was so glad that my fudge turned out perfect this year! I had some trouble with it last year. Robert sampled all of it and told me that I was going to make him get fat. I guess that means he liked it all :)


We have been having a lot of fun going to different family parties and are looking forward to a couple more this week. I love this time of year and how people try extra hard to get to know one another and be nice! Hope everyone is doing well and not getting too stressed out!

Hopefully I will be updating soon with news about the baby's gender!!
