Christmas in June?


We decided that, regardless of season, we would tackle a puzzle left under our tree by Santa last December 25th.  Though teamwork was crucial, Lauren and I each concede that Ciala was the dominant force bringing these 500 pieces together.

Getting started...

The framework is laid...

Tons of progress...

Completion! (Dogs adorned with wreaths and Santa hats).

Another activity reminiscent of colder weather was baking pumpkin bread.  It's one of our favorites and we had all the ingredients on hand so we decided to go for it!

Lauren gets us cracking...

While Ciala tends to sleepy Aiden...

Finished and ready to eat!

Clyde has duty on base today, so he posts at 0800 and is relieved at 0759.  We miss him, but decided to make the most of it by having a Girls' Night (+ Aiden).  My co-authors will tell you all about it, soon!  Aiden is not happy about the house's gender ratio today.  Our friend Kristi and her pup are stopping by... counting the dogs that's 6 girls and only 1 little boy!

Aiden keeps himself busy...

"Daddy, please hurry home!"
