Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving weekend this year with Joey's family in up in Dublin. We had a great weekend and are still feeling full from all of the amazing food! 

The Dunlops joined us for thanksgiving day, and the family (including max) enjoyed having Ruby around for her first thanksgiving.

Ruby is a little more comfortable with her Uncle by her side.

Ruby and Max have become a lot more comfortable with each other.

Time for a little relaxing with her new friend.

We are both looking forward to Wed. night when we hop on a plane and head up to spend thanksgiving with the Olsens in Dublin! 

Hope the next few days go fast. 

What would I do without her?

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!

Thanks Mom! Don't know what I would do without you!!!!

The best yet!

We just made the best ice cream creation yet. Its wonderful. 

Vanilla homemade ice cream with crushed dark chocolate covered Peppermint Joe Joe's. I told Joey we might have to  buy a ton of these and keep them in the freezer so whenever we crave this new favorite we will have it available. 

SO GOOD!!

We want more!

These people have been a big part of our lives for the past five months.

We (yes both of us) have shed many tears, laughed a lot, and felt like we have learned exactly what it would be like to work in the white house while we watched the 7 seasons of the West Wing. 

We will miss our political friends greatly.
