And in case you didn't hear, yesterday was Christmas with Uncle John and Aunt Linda! Jason and I hosted it here at our place. It went very well, except for the fact that I made a dessert with cool whip in it, but that's a whole other story. Anyway, here's a photo of our Christmas present from Aunt Linda, which we have hung proudly in the foyer...
And, one more thing! We only have room for one endtable in the family room, and we really didn't want to put a coffee table in there because we like the open floor space, but we felt like we needed something for people to put drinks on. So, we found this perfect solution. This square ottoman is easy to move around, it provides extra storage inside (for blankets and things), and the top flips over to be a tray when you need it. I saw them in a Crate and Barrel catalogue first, and then we found them in Target for half the price! They work great...

That's all of the updates for now. I hope everyone is having a great weekend!
