I haven't been very good at taking pictures lately. I realized on my way to the airport to drop Brigham off that we didn't even get a picture together while he was here.
Lame, I know.
Although I didn't get a lot of pictures, It was great to have Brig here for Thanksgiving! We were invited by some of our Air Force friends to join them for dinner, and it was great. I got pictures of the appetizers, but not the actual food.
I was on pie duty, and had I known another guy was going to make some pies I would have only made 2. I still have a piece of apple, pumpkin, and the entire chocolate pudding pie in my fridge. I managed to give 2 of the pumpkin away. Phew.
Before we even went over for dinner though, one of the first things Brig did when he got here was put up the crib. I thought for sure he would rest or something....
Maybe that's because that is what I would have done. :)
Anyway, he put me in charge of dictating the instructions to him and he went to work.
I don't have a "finished product" picture because we don't have any of the bedding yet. It is currently in UT waiting to be packed and brought up with my mom when she comes.
[It was cheaper by a long shot to have them ship it to UT versus AK.]Well, the other days that Brig was here (Friday and Saturday) we went to Harry Potter 7, went to the Anchorage Temple, went shopping, and just enjoyed being in each others company again.
One of our many purchases were new snow tires for our car.
So far they have worked.
Another exciting purchase was our Christmas tree! It was rather exciting to go buy a real Christmas tree. I always enjoyed that as a kid.
One of my favorite memories is when the tree guy thought I was a boy because I had short hair.
Here's a photo of me getting the ornaments ready.
And here is Brig, satisfied with his work.
And the finished product, minus a star.... we're still working on that.
I'm already counting down the day till Brig gets to come home again. For realsies this time. We're just hoping that the little guy decides to stay in until dad does get home.
Fourteen days till my due date!
