Clarence-he's named for Christmastime, you know

An angel :)



Here he is. He literally freezes when you put the hat and scarf on him. And it's not because he's cooperating, i don't think. I think it's because he's devising ways in his head to pay me back for this.




Blurry, I know, but still cute.


Some of the decorations around the house. (the blurry shots are me trying to get the feeling of the candle light. It didn't really work. Oh well.)














On Halloween we sat by the fire in our back yard. We felt creative, so we took pictures of the fire. I think maybe you had to be there ;)


This is Jeff taking coals out of the fire pit, then putting leaves over them so we could burn down our house. I mean so we could smell the burning leaves ;P

Now this one was Jeff's creation. He got the whole fire pit with flames AND a pretty glow on the leaves.


Whoa!





So there are the fire shots. Boring? Fine. But it was fun for us!
