Aside from the Wedding

What? We can stop and think about something besides the wedding again? Yes, it is finally possible. This post consists of a bunch of pictures to catch up on our lives outside of the W-E-D-D-I-N-G, now that the house can breathe again and Christmas is making its entry. 

The first thing I see on the camera is the circus. This was the Massner family's getaway the Saturday after the wedding while Matt & I were on our honeymoon. It appears that they had a wonderful time without us.

We got back from our honeymoon in time to celebrate Jonathan's 16th birthday. He can drive now and Mom loves having someone to run people around for her!

I feel like all of our pictures at Mom & Dad's are on this couch...err, love seat.

According to the candles, Johnny is only eight years old. He tries to act that age, but we know better.

We got a very small snowfall earlier in November! Fortunately it melted before it could do too much harm.

We went up to Minnesota for several days to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas with the Schmidgall family.

We played instruments at the Knobloch house Thursday afternoon. 

Thursday evening at Rob & Kathryn's

Playing games!

The newlyweds...Matt seems a lot more sure of himself in front of the camera than me.

Aunt Camera Wars

Encore!!

We went to the nursing home to sing for Grandma on Friday. 

Grandma and the girls

Grandma and the boys

Bowling Friday evening after eating at Pizza Ranch

The boys were very interactive in their game selection Friday night. 

So were the girls.

We went to the Hancock gym and played a two-hour game of basketball. 

Christmas at Bruce & Penny's Saturday evening.

I hope the poor guy passed his initiation...he probably didn't make a good impression when he stole a gift from Uncle Mark. 

...and here comes Christmas! :) Hope all is well!
