I call her Big Bertha

I think that's the name of a golf club - but to see this elliptical in comaprison to our previous one..........she IS Big Bertha!!! She didn't even fit in the back of my RAV. We(okay, the three men who helped me) had to break the box down and put the parts in. Thankfully, the nice strong men loaded it all up - it was very heavy! I love it already!

And, a bonus for me ('cause Mark experienced all of the headache on this) - they're sending us over $150 worth of iFit programs because the part they sold us to repair our old elliptcal was actually not even possible to fix. They didn't tell Mark that til - hmmmm - how many phone calls and e-mails later?

The devolution of a teething biscuit

Gone are the days of relatively "clean" meals. Yes, he got a bath right after this :o)

Battle of the Ravine

Every year we go to the big tailgate party before the football game between the two universities(which are, interestingly enough, right across the street from each other). Matthew wasn't too sure what to think of the band. By the end, he was kind of beebopping along to the music, though.

We didn't go to the game - too late for Matthew. We watched some of it on tv - we won!

**you can't tell it by the pictures - but there really were a lot of people there. As true Edwards's - we go early and beat the crowds ;o)

Not so much

Matthew has finally grown in to his sunglasses. Needless to say, he wasn't the most thrilled with them. Thankfully enough, his puffs and cheerios were enough to distract him - there is hope.

Celebration cupcakes

This is how tired I am of politics right now. Now matter who wins - these are to celebrate the end of the election! Mark is bringing them in to work tomorrow.

Funny - most of the faculty seem to be Democrats and most of the students seem to be Republican.

I'm certainly not trying to make light of the situation - I pray the God will show mercy on us as a nation - I think we need it now more than ever.

Merry Christmas to us!

I just ordered it - I'm so excited!!!
