A nice Christmas dinner

We had a lovely Christmas dinner with our new fancy dishes yesterday. It was so much fun and I feel like such a homemaker having matching dishes and linens and glasses. The last photo is of the homemade desserts Stephanie made.... delicious!

I love winter!

We're decorated for the holidays! The Christmas tree has actually been up since Thanksgiving weekend and JD put the final touches on our outdoor lights Sunday. The top photo shows the front of our new rental house. Which is such a treat. We moved into a 3-bedroom house on the west-side of Helena on November 1st. It's such a cozy, wonderful house. We have a spare bedroom so any friends and family have a place to stay. Although Stephanie has already called dibs on the room when the baby comes :) The house is complete with a living room just for JD in the basement. And the other nice perk of the house is the sun porch across the front. The cats absolutely love it there, except when it's -10 bellow. Putting the final touches on the baby room is on the to-do list next.
