Our first Thanksgiving.....

Well since Tim and I are so not the traditional sort of couple it makes sense that our holidays would represent that. We did not get to spend the day with our families (which was really sad) and we decided not to make the traditional turkey dinner. When I asked Tim what he would like to eat today he said he didn't know. So I asked him what his favorite meal was......are you ready for this? Lasagna and cheesecake.....that is his favorite meal. So that's what I made. From scratch in case your wondering. :) I didn't really like the lasagna, but Tim loved it and the cheesecake was pretty good. I guess some would think that it's odd, but not us. It really was a good day. After lunch we watched a movie and then went on a walk at the nature preserve. All in all it's been a great day. We have much to be grateful for.

Love,
Tim and Jess.

You may be asking yourself what the? Well your not alone. This little guy is all over our town. Not sure why. The best I can tell he is the town mascot. Sexy eh?

Places we go and things we see....

Saturday we were able to go to the temple. Sadly the Atlanta temple is closed, it will be opening again in January. However the South Carolina temple is open so that is where we went. I was told it was a 2 hour trip. For everybody's knowledge....it is almost a 4 hour trip with traffic. However....I am grateful to be able to go to the temple.

Life

Tim says: My job with UPS is seasonal. But I am hoping that I get to stay on, it's a possibility if I work hard and I am working hard. I like it though. My driver is a nice guy. I am good. I am working on making a horse out of origami. It's really hard. Love everybody.

Jess says: My week has not been exciting. Still no job. Blah. Maybe I am unhirable (I don't think that's a word because when I right clicked on it the word that popped up was undesirable. Interesting). On happier notes tonight John Bythway is speaking and I believe that we will be attending. I rather enjoy some of his books so I think that it will be pretty good. Tomorrow we are going to the temple. Now I am excited and not so excited. The Atlanta Temple is closed so we have to drive several hours to get to the South Carolina Temple and to be honest I am more than a little tired of traveling. I don't know how you do it Beth! Also Tim got NEW glasses. He looks wonderful. I will post a picture of him in those snazzy new things soon. I think that's all the excitement in our neck of the woods......Love you all......

Look what we found....

Tim found this in our apartment. Instead of killing it he decided to look at it since he thought it was interesting. After taking several pictures he then released it outside. I was all for him killing it. I mean look at that bug! What is it?

We love this dog. Even Tim.
He is too cute not to take a picture of. Plus this makes him look deep in thought. In reality he was staring at the dog making fun of her.
She is cheesing for the camera.
No dogs were harmed in the making of this picture.
Another attempt to be creative. But this was a really pretty place. Not sure if I captured that or not.
They were chasing something. At least that's what Tim said....

I thought Tim was just taking a picture of the dog....I guess not. Cheese!
Isn't he the cutest thing ever!
Greetings!
