sweet, sweet sushi......

For the Rooke's Annual Holiday Cookie Bake-Off I opted to not actually bake anything at all. Instead, I entered this plate of candy sushi into the contest. Yes, it did win in the creativity category, but certainly not the taste. Looks good though....

it happened again....

thanks Nana....

My mom bought this Boo doll for Charleigh while we were at Disneyland. It has become her first real attachment toy. She sleeps with her and is now beginning to insist that Boo come with us anytime we leave the house....

Yes, I am aware that I am ridiculously far behind, but we are going to attempt to catch up and in chronological order. We spent Thanksgiving at Josh's folks house. Most of the day was spent playing Wii. We were excited for Charleigh to try her first Thanksgiving foods. We gave her a little of each to try and what did my child eat for her first real holiday meal? Olives and peas. A lot of them too. So much that we finally had to stop giving them to her so the rest of us could have some also. Oh well, it could be worse. She was also a fan of the pumpkin pie.....such a strange child.
