Update

Wow, it has been awhile since I blogged. We had a nice Thanksgiving. People came, ate, I received a beautiful fruit edible bouquet which was so nice to have along with the other stuff. The Packers played that day of course.

Winter showed up yesterday dumping over a foot of snow and then it became very cold. School was out yesterday and started late today. Hopefully everything will be back to normal Friday.

Our new snowblower works so well it ate the lights on the bushes....oops! I am glad no one got hurt and the blower still works.

The latest acquisition is a flat screen tv for our bedroom...we really like it. We have been planning on getting one for a year. Pete did a great job putting it up (during the Packer game on Thanksgiving...his poor family only saw glimpses of him as he passed through looking for tools).

We also made a canopy bed for Breanna as a surprise while she was gone to Neenah to shop on black Friday with the inlaws. We made the canopy bed out of pvc pipe! We found bedding and matching curtains at Wal-mart that worked perfectly (the curtains are used on the canopy part). Luke did a great job helping his dad put it together and kept the dog occupied because he kept laying on the bedding while we were trying to work with it. I think she was really surprised and so were we because we put it together in a day without too much arguing. Whew!

Next project will be painting the master bath....after the holidays.

It sounds like Bree's bed turned out well. As a child I so wanted a canopy bed.

Sounds like you've had a great time. We had some "snow" in Houston but alas we didn't need any snow blowers or plows.
