Christmas Card

Christmas preparations are in full swing over here at the Vestring house.  (Hence, the lack of communication we've had recently).  We've been busy shopping, cleaning, wrapping and getting over colds.  I tried to get shopping done early this year, but it seems like there are always those gifts that get left 'til the end!  Darn them, how does that always happen?!  I'm sure it will all get done...
won't it?!  Yes!

Here is our Christmas card this year.  Merry Christmas from the Vestrings!

O Christmas Tree!

Happy Saturday! 

We are going to get a Christmas tree today.  We are a little excited over here at our house.  It's finally feeling a little more like Christmas because the weather is no longer 70 degrees and we are pumped! 

Here's a pic of us from last year in front of our tree!

What a beautiful December!

Sorry we've been away recently.  We have been enjoying the beautiful weather we've been having here in Oklahoma this past week.  I mean really.... it's insane.  It should not be 78 degrees in December but it was, on Monday.  It doesn't quite feel like it's almost Christmas but I am soooo not complaining.  And neither is Ruby.  The past few days she's gotten to frolic in the park, leashless (it's something we've been trying out and loving... and is possibly not even allowed at our park...but I saw some other dogs doing it too... so that's got to count for something right?  right??)  She has also gotten in a few more runs around the neighborhood than usual because her parents have felt like it's almost criminal to stay inside on these beautiful days.  Needless to say she's been a happy little doggy. 

We haven't just been playing outside though.  On Saturday we opened up the windows and doors and I decorated our house for Christmas while Ruby and Jeff put up some lights.  Ok you caught me, Jeff just put up the lights and Ruby watched.  I'm sure she would have helped but she doesn't have opposable thumbs. 

It's supposed to get a little cooler at the end of the week so I think I'd better enjoy a few more hours of beautiful weather today! 

Happy Wednesday!

Here are a few recent Instas.  Doesn't she look like such a happy pup?!
