Chrsitmas/decorating update

We are back to finally update after our first Christmas in our new home. Ian's parent's came in the Friday before Christmas and brought us all kinds of goodies for decorating/storage/working surfaces. It was a great visit. We cooked up a ham/kaiser potato's(something that my grandpa on my dad's side came up with and has been handed down)/cranberry salad(this was his mom's side of the family's recipe via his grandpa)/mac and cheese/salad/rolls/etc. We also decorated our first letters for our visitor's wall. You will see what I mean in a few pictures. Any person that comes for a visit we are buying your first initial for you to paint when you come to visit for the first time. You can decorate it however you like and then when it dries you hang it up below our "Welcome to our home" sign. It's your way to leave an imprint on our home. Back to the main story. After my grandma,sister,mom and nephew stayed with us, we messed with the garage and moved in most of the furniture that Ian's parents brought down for us. On to the pictures.
