Family Dinner Finally!

So Nick and I have been married for over two months now and since we had to combine two apartments into one, our place kind of looks like a storage unit right now. Boxes of stuff everywhere cause there is no place for it to go. Nick's mom is coming to visit for Christmas so we needed to clean out the office so we can set up the air mattress. Therefore, the giant 6 foot love sack had to go elsewhere. So we finally had to do something about the dining area that was packed with most of our stuff(the majority of which is wedding gifts(thank you to all of you who provided those - we love them)) So after a hard days work we repacked everything in that area and we were able to put the lovesack in there. This also accomplished the major task of clearing off the table. By the end of today we actually had a kitchen table again, and we ate "family dinner" around it for the first time since we got married. No more TV trays every night! Although I'm sure we will still definitely use them, even after the nativity set quits using two of them as a stand. Anyway, here is our newly cleaned table. Notice all the boxes to the right and the giant lovesack held in its place by the far side of the table. We decided to crockpot it tonight, so we ate a roast with potatoes and carrots. Yum, one of my favorites.

Hey it's Mac. It looks like married life is treating you great. The tree looks awesome along with the nativity set. Shannons family had the tradition of getting at least one or many ornaments to represent that year, so when we got married she had many and we just keep additing to it and even getting some fro Kennedy. I hope all was well for Christmas. Talk with you later.

Ahh, the love sac. That thing is so comfy. Glad you're getting a little bit organized. Packing and unpacking is one of my least favorite things.
