Sam and I try to have time to spend with just the guys and just the girls. Friday night was that kind of night for me and Monday was the time for him! Girls night first! Our friend Kim invited some girls to her house for an ornament swap and cookie decorating. There were some things that came up that made it where some girls couldn't make it, but we didn't let it stop the party. We had some snacks, chatted, swapped ornaments, and then headed to make some cookies. This was an experience for me because I have never made Christmas sugar cookies. Yes, you heard me right! Never made them. It was slightly messy and thanks to our lack of sugar cookie knowledge the cookies came out very puffy. It was a fun time though regardless of how messy the cookies might have turned out. We all had a great time just relaxing and having some girl time. We ate the dough, got powered sugar all over us and the floor, created some interesting frosting colors, and hung out! We've decided to make this an annual event, but swap up the houses we go to. Next year, the destination is undecided, but we will be making gingerbread houses! Here are some pictures of the night..
This week, Sam is on vacation..at home. He had built up hours, so hey why not take them right before you start a new job?! Sunday, he and John decided that they needed a guy day too. The three boys (Sam, John, and Trav) look off at 4 AM on Monday morning and drove to Indiana to go skiing. They said they had a great time. No waits on the lifts, did some crazy jumps, fell a lot, but had a fun. I think that Sam is a little spoiled after going skiing in the Wyoming. This hills seemed like a piece of cake. Sam did take my camera with him, but he did not take pictures, so I guess we will all just take him at his word! :)
Coming soon: Ugly Christmas Sweater Party
