December Video and Pictures!



Brynn and Adrienne:
A&B helped make and actually ate/enjoyed our first Hello Fresh meal!

So good

Decorating gingerbread houses!

A's on left, B's on right

Ice Skating!  I watched from the bleachers ;)

Testing out a new game that A got for Christmas!



They sent me this before I got out of bed one morning!


Brynn:
Gunther wanted in on relaxation time.

Brynn made it to midnight with me on NYE!!  Adrienne and Ben did not lol

Adrienne:
Purposely put glitter on the couch because "Adrienne wanted to lint roll something."  Then she needed some help.

Going after some candy

Improvised a shirt for Grinch Day at school


Live streamed the Holiday Sing-a-long at school!


Ben and Em:
Playing one of our favorite games: Zombicide Black Plague

A friend from high school made me a custom guitar pick case for the one I caught at the Justin Timberlake concert with the Man of the Woods Tour logo on it.  I'm super impressed with how it turned out!


New Year's Eve with my favorite ladies!

Christmastime Visits/Activities:
Making Chex Mix with MomMom.


Chess with Granddad

Out to dinner at our favorite local Italian restaurant



1st stop: Downtown Pittsburgh!


2nd Stop: Phipps Conservatory for their Holiday Light Show.  This was our second time going and we all absolutely love their lights display!








I updated our mantle with new stocking holders and decorations this year!

Christmas Eve and Day:
Making reindeer food

Softening the butter for cookies

Cookies for Santa!

Had to test the cookie dough before baking cookies!


Had to put Gunther's hat on one more time

A&B's Christmas Plan originally said 5am, which we changed to 6am.

Woke up to this text from B on Christmas morning which she sent at 4:40am!  She said she woke up at 3ish, Adrienne woke up at 4ish, then they both played together until they woke us up at 5:10 in the morning.


Ben has been making scavenger hunts for Christmas morning for a few years now.  He stayed up late on Christmas Eve and made this spinner for their clues/answers this year!




We had a great day!

Gunther:
Waiting for me to come downstairs and feed him breakfast.

Enjoying Christmastime.

Getting ready to go to the vet for a checkup!

He was a bad boy at the vet!  Lots of hissing which he NEVER does at home.  He did not want his shots lol

He really wanted in the bathroom after I got out of the shower.

So nosey

Some new beds are coming and we are in the process of changing everything out.  Gunther still thinks the guest bedroom is his.

Living his best Christmas life.

His toy from Santa last year

Relaxing while I looked at magazines

Em Young Living:
All of the things we chose for this month!

I loved choosing the individual colors on our diffuser to make it look more festive :)

Was feeling a little under the weather, so added a couple drops of lemon to some tea and took an Inner Defense capsule (Thieves oil blend) for a few days.  Nipped it in the bud before Christmas!

Also... all the Thieves.

A couple drops of Lemon oil took this stubborn price tag right off.
