Christmas Decor

Today while Elizabeth had the day off, she turned the apartment into Christmas mode!

Making Cards

What's a visit with Thomas, Gina, and Erika without some arts and crafts? This past weekend Elizabeth got to hang out with the gang and watch them make holiday cards. Clara also got in on the action.

Gina and Erika have quite an impressive collection of card-making supplies.

"An Afternoon at the Circus"

This afternoon Monica put on an awesome Circus-themed piano recital! Everybody did a great job with their pieces!!!

This was Elizabeth's pathetic attempt to make 'Lion Sugar Cookies'

Daniel's little piano student Harley played a piece Daniel wrote for her to play entitled "tightrope." She did a really good job!

The finale was a piece for eight hands-included was Clara! Clara also played a violin piece and her own circus piece! Way to go Clara!!!

Thanks Megan!!!

Today I got a gift in the mail from Megan-a bunch of pictures she took during our wedding! Thanks Megan! I'm so glad I have these!

CAVALIERS vs JAZZ

Now official Ohioans, we decided to show some Ohio pride and go to a Cleveland Cavaliers game. Last night after work, we jumped in the car and made the 2 hour drive up to Cleveland ....they just happened to be playing the Utah Jazz!!!!

We made it just in time, had amazing seats, and had a perfect view of Lebron James! Yay!

Even Michael Symon and Bobby Flay showed up for the big night

Unfortunately Shaq didn't play...Elizabeth was very disappointed. (he's the one in the dark suit)

There was A LOT of OSU cheering throughout the entire game!

Even though the Jazz were behind pretty much the entire game, the last 5 minutes proved to be quite exciting as you can see....

Things Daniel Likes....

Frosting....
Daniel had the day off today....Elizabeth walked in on him doing this

Our BR Wishlist

Spurred by the UNBELIEVABLE new stuff for holiday at Banana Republic, we decided to each go through our closet and make a pile of clothes we never wear, that are still in good condition. We are hoping to find a place that we can sell these items-in exchange we hope to take our earnings to BR and get some new goods!

A Wedding & Some Birthday Boys

This weekend we visited Indiana for Daniel and Jessica's wedding. Fall was in full swing and the drive was beautiful.

And of course what's a wedding without the Pappas musicians! Thomas and Daniel looked great in their brown groomsmen suits

Daniel and Jessica's wedding was beautiful, yet somehow this is the only picture we took

After the wedding we went to the Varners' and gave the boys their belated birthday gifts. We think they liked them...

Tonight we celebrated another birthday-Happy 3 Nicholas!
Nicholas received several fun gifts...including 3 monster trucks

Daniel's New Baby

A few weeks ago Daniel found himself greatly disappointed to find that all of his USB ports on his computer were no longer working. After taking it to 'The Laptop Guy' (Daniel does not have his own personal laptop guy-this is just the name of the place he took it to) he was told that we would have to spend a lofty $500 to replace the motherboard...

In an effort to SAVE MONEY, Daniel decided to cover the cost of the motherboard and his need for "better stuff" by "investing" in a NEW laptop for just over DOUBLE the cost of a motherboard....
anyone looking to buy a computer without working USB ports????????
