I finally got some pictures downloaded so hello long post of pictures...haha! We went to a wedding of some good family friends the weekend after Thanksgiving. It was wonderful! Such a fun crowd - plus Susan kept Eli for us so we had a date night!! Thanks to Melin for letting me borrow her ultra classy black dress so I didn't have to buy yet another wedding dress. The first weekend of December, Cass came over and we went to Downtown Covington's Christmas Parade. Very cold and kinda boring (don't tell anyone!!) we headed to the local ice cream/coffee shop to get some warm beverages and then headed home. We at least got some cute pictures of Eli is his cute blue snow suit. (Thanks to Alexis!) Then on Sunday we headed to my parents for the Colbert Family Christmas. (my mom's side) Dad cooked an unbelievable ham and the side dishes were AMAZING! No casseroles for this party - we like veggies - butternut squash, fried okra (OMG!), roasted asparagus, steamed brussel sprouts, green beans, cranberry/butternut squash rice medly. We did throw some mac n cheese in there and some of Glo's homemade biscuits - YUM! But then the desserts rolled out - it was ridiculous! AND everything was homemade...Kelli's Chocolate Eclairs (she even made the pastry puff), Cranberry Upside Down Cake, Strawberry Cheesecake, Pumpkin Chiffon Pie (my favorite) and Pecan Pie. I honestly think I gained 10lbs while there...or at least after I ate my 2nd ham sandwich today! :)
