The next day, Saturday, was the party to end all parties. We were blessed to have family and friends from all over SoCal join us for an open house to celebrate birthdays and our housewarming. It was really heartwarming to have so many friends make the trek to our new home!

If you ever wondered what heaven looks like, I’m showing you now.

Well, Thanksgiving is over and I’m almost done cooking. I’m on my second turkey, which I was supposed to do yesterday but never quite got around to. That’s OK, because my cousin did two! For yesterday’s celebration I did dressing and mashed potatoes, and also made some Gluhwein. Sipping on that [...]
