Day 91: The brothers

My dad and my uncle at Thanksgiving.

Day 23: My new butter crock

My mom was very sweet and picked up this Le Creuset butter crock for me.  You put the butter in the top part, and then place it in the bottom which has cold water in it (up to the fill line).  Then you leave it out and I guess the water keeps the butter fresh by creating a seal.  It's cool!  We used it for the first time during breakfast. 

Day 19: Goodbye to the parents!

I drove the parents to the airport to send them on their way back to Chicago.  I miss them already!  Hope they had a good visit here.

Day 10: The parents

My parents threw a lovely barbeque/family reunion/birthday party for the girls for us.  We had a great time.  Thanks, Ps!
