Friend Filled Weekend

Nicholas is doing great and although I've been on antibiotics for 5 days, they don't seem to be doing much. I'm not in as much pain as I was, but still not feeling so hot. But, we had an awesome weekend filled with friends, laughter, and love.

On Saturday we finally got a Christmas Tree! It was pretty frozen so we didn't decorate it until this morning. I was just so glad we finally found the time to make it happen. Nicholas pulls off approximately three ornaments per hour,but that is to be expected. Two fancy ornaments are sitting on our windowsill and will be put on the tree in about 100 years when we don't fear that Nicholas will break them.

Some of my favorite ornaments:

Here are some of the other decorations:

Saturday night we went to our friend Matt and Deanna's house for a Christmas Party. We got hit with a pretty big storm so we went over a bit early and had such an awesome time. I was glad most people showed up because I know Deanna had been looking forward to the party for months:

Lastly, we had a bunch of friends over for football today. I didn't take too many pictures, but I did make some good food ;)

Red Velvet Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting and I put crushed candy canes on a few of them, it just looked so festive! Nicholas and our friend son's Brennan (below) were a big fan of these!
