Ugly Huskers & Ugly Sweaters

Must only be the first quarter because he wasn't completely discouraged yet

Still cheering

Then drowning his sorrows (really he was just holding mine)

Our sweaters, complete with his ridiculous Christmas golf tie

The gaggle of girls

Cody took over the gingerbread (graham cracker, actually) house

He got pretty serious

I tired to help

All done!

If any of our midwestern family members would care to share some of your unseasonably warm weather, we'd appreciate it. We haven't had any snow for 3+ weeks now, so we're only seeing a high of about 5 degrees, if that. Apparently we're finally getting the clear skies we so sorely missed this summer. Our sunrise is now about 9:50am and sunset is 3:30pm... we're counting down the days until the winter solstice!
