First Fire!

Yes I'm listening to Christmas music right now, it's chilly out and I like it so there. So my wonderful husband switched my gas burning fire place back into a wood burning fire place for me, isn't that sweet of him? I thought so, wood is cheaper and warmer and makes crackle noises and smells nicer and is just all around more cozy or so I think. So tonight is the first fire in my wood burning fire place... ahhh.. I pulled out a book, kicked back on the couch in front of the fire and relaxed and ignored the pile of pictures waiting for me to edit them. Boy did I need that nice break it felt wonderful. Emily is amazed by fire, I need to keep her far away from the fire place when it's burning.

We had a nice weekend, we had friends over Saturday night, just to hang out and chat. It's always nice to spend some time with company. They have a daughter Kaylee's age so they got to play together in the basement. Earlier in the day I went to South Haven and took my wonderful brothers engagement pictures. It's crazy to think my little brother is getting married in the spring, AH!! But I'm very excited for him. I'll to go through and pick a couple out to post tomorrow. I also got a chance to meet my new little cousin Judah and he is just a sweetie! I took some pictures of him and his mommy and daddy which I'll have to post later as well. It was nice to spend time with family and have a Saturday off for Weddings.
Sunday I worked my butt off editing, I got a good amount finished which is one reason why I felt comfortable enough to take a much needed break today. It was Jimmy's mom's birthday so we made her a cake and had her come over for a piece. She spent some time with the kids and we all had a nice large piece of marble with chocolate frosting... mmmm...
My parents are off to Texas, they went down to surprise my Uncle for his 60ith birthday. All his siblings and my Grandma went down and he was so surprised. They're having a blast in the 80+ degree weather. They are staying in a condo right on the ocean.. I'm a little jealous, at least I have my pretty fire.
