Reindeer Cookies?



Marga read about these delightful reindeer cookies you could make in her magazine.  She begged me to go to the store and "buy 'greedients" until Sean relented. He went to the store.  I organized the activity.  The cookies did not turn out exactly like the picture...







Sean's cookie...













Uncle Matt...














Most disturbingly, Margaret's.












Cookies! Heidi made beautiful ones.  William did a good job.  Mine were sort of okay.  They all tasted GREAT! Happy prolonged pre-Christmas!

What the heck is wrong with my layout!? I'll fix it later....drH.

Hiking!


Sean and I decided that it was time to take the whole gang out on a hike.  We made it about 15 minutes and had to stop for snack. Note how windy it is up there!

View of the Snowies - I keep giving myself away as a foreigner because I can't stop calling them the "Smokies".

Better Home Than Garden...


For those of you who have been asking what our place looks like, here are some pictures.  I ran around taking pictures immediately after cleaning, so rest assured it does not really look like this today or any other day! The garden is still a dirt pit...we're saving that project for spring (see blog post titled "Early October").

Kitchen.Living room with sweet children doing homework together. (30 seconds)
Shrine to the Bodensee.Fireplace.  Looks pretty!! Doesn't work!And there's your tour!

Trip to Sugarloaf, Medicine Bow National Park






We are thilled to live near this beautiful nature!

The Bier we drink.


Yes, friends, this is the Bier we drink now.  "Moose Drool" and "Trout Slayer".  You're right! I couldn't resist the packaging. They taste EXACTLY the same.  Luckily, they taste good! Sean misses his Hefeweizen.  Maybe we'll be able to find some around these parts if we look hard enough.
