It looks a lot like Christmas

Aaron and I went to a Christmas party this weekend and had a great time! It was on the same night as the Big 12 championship (boo-hoo Tigers), so they set up large screens in every room so we could watch the game. Who can beat good food, good friends, and football?!?!

Did I mention there were CHOCOLATE desserts??


This morning, a cold front moved into mid-Missouri. At around 5AM, we heard a CRACK--BANG. I knew immediately our sick tree in the backyard fell. I checked that we had power and knew we were okay...I knew the tree needed to come down, but we were hoping to have someone do it because it was close to the house and the way it would fall might hit the power line to our house. Luckily, it fell such that it didn't do any real damage. The second picture is with Donovan so you can get a feel for how GINORMOUS the tree is. Anyone have a chainsaw we can borrow this weekend? :)
