Life as of late

Hey sorry I've been M.I.A. for awhile! I guess I've been at a loss

of what to say lately. Well it's December and it is officially mine and Wills first big holiday together. Whoo! We went out and got a little 20 dollar tree, some gold and silver ornaments and perched right on the top of the tree is Hedwig the owl. We pushed Big Bear (I named it when i was like 5...I was an orignal child obviously lol)  under our tree with a jolly santa hat on and put an (ahem) Reindeer under the tree to (...its a moose...not in the picture though sorry!) Its a jolly sight to see :)

We love our new apt! It's a cute, cozy and vintage! It screams 70's :) It makes me think of my grandpas house before it was remodeled.



We've done a couple of fun dates lately. One of them being our "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" Night. We pulled it up on YouTube and dressed like we were in the 50's. Then made ourselves a wonderful dinner and had a glass of zee bubbly (sparkling apple cider :)



Next fun thing we did was Hang out with Christine (Sister in law) and we found a ....TWINKIE TRUCK....bum, bum, bum! Since everyone is going crazy about we thought it would be fun to take a picture under it :)

Then we went to the best...and I mean BEST ice cream place ever. It is called Maggie Moo's. Now normally I'm not a huge ice cream freak because well...I like cake better. But this place...I would sacrifice cake to have an ice cream here!I love their Marshmallow and Cotton Candy (not flavors i normally dig either but these are. to. die. for!)  I swirled Marshmallow, Cotton Candy, and Raspberries together for my ice cream cone. I know it might sound a little weird but it was positively brilliant!...Great now I want to go get some... Sigh.






After that we went to see 007 and of course took many a pictures by the Hobbit Posters. Because yes we are indeed nerds. My favorite part was listening to Christine go on and on about Bilbo and trying to find a good picture of him.





Next story up...Thanksgiving. Now I made some cupcakes that I was rather proud of. I call them the Gobbler. Its a white cake with an oreo bottom, a cookie dough center, brownie frosting and a lindor truffle for the head...It is one of my personal favorites :) Thanksgiving was at my Grandmas house this year and we feasted on mashed potatoes, turkey and rolls. But mostly mashed potatoes ;) Everyone was talking and laughing the boys went out and played on the hillside (Will is included in that since Braden idolizes him) and the girls took zany pictures while the parents caught up with each other. We had to sadly leave at 5 though so will could get to work. But it was a great day!


And the last story for this post. We decided we need another date so we went on a walk, since it wasn't to cold. I loaded my jacket full of chalk and we set off drawing and arrow pointing the way we were walking every few feet. We walked down to the stone church. Will suggest we look to see if it was open since a car was parked out front. So we went up and...it was open! As we were walking around an elderly man came to ask us what we were doing and we just explained we were curious to know what the inside looked like since it looked so pretty on the outside. So he gave us a tour. And let me tell you this. It is the most beautiful church i have ever seen. They have a baptizim  fount that is no longer in use cause it leaks but he showed us anyways. It had a mural of Christ being baptized across all four walls and the font itself was made out of every stone imaginable. I'm still awe struck by how lovely it was. We thanked him and continued walking at the end of our walk we left all the chalk as a prize to whoever followed our path. :)

Well thats about it for us Caspers till next time :)
