Christmas Tree Hunting December 22, 2009
Our annual Christmas tree tradition is to go tree-hunting on the first weekend of Advent (after Thanksgiving). This includes seasonal lattes from Starbucks and a trip out to Furrow Farms in Helvetia, OR. We found a doozy this year and even got some shots of John looking like he should be a lumberjack in Eddie Bauer’s Christmas catalog. What a dork

Thanksgiving 2009 (+ Olivia’s Dedication) December 21, 2009
On Thanksgiving weekend 2009, Olivia was dedicated at our church in Lake Oswego. We have much to be thankful for in this season, including a beautiful, healthy, and growing baby girl. Thanksgiving dinner at the Lyman’s was great this year. John grabbed the reins for the second year in a row as the resident turkey-carver. Olivia had a lot of fun.
