We had a wonderful time with the Caldwell family! It was so memorable having them all here (except for Nate). Wish we lived closer to them, but enjoyed this special time together!

We feel so blessed that they were all able to come visit us!
Last night Tad, Vera, and I went to a local coffee shop to hear a live jazz band playing Christmas music! We had a great time together as a family. Here’s a picture of me and Vera before we left the house.
(Yes, our tree is still undecorated in the background. We’re working on it!)
We enjoyed a relaxing picnic as a family yesterday!
We used a picnic cooler I bought from One King’s Lane which included everything we needed (plates, silverware, napkins, wine glasses, bottle opener, and a cheese knife). One Kings Lane even threw in a candle with my order, so we took that with us too! The cooler had room for all the food we needed for lunch.
Our menu included:
-sparkling apple cider
-pears
-apples
-wheat and white bread
-tortilla chips
-garlic hummus
-sharp cheddar cheese
-monterey jack cheese
-cold lemon pepper grilled chicken
-dark chocolate for dessert
Of course Vera enjoyed the beautiful fall day as well!
