wine tour august 2012me, (e:libertad), Maureen and Justin went on a Niagara county wine tour.we only went to a few wineries because we didn't have tons of time. I also am not a huge wine fan but it was fun trying different kinds and they helped me decide what kind I like by trying different ones. I don't remember exactly what it was now that I like, I think they said dry, fruity not sweet white wines maybe? IS that a thing? Afterwards we drove around Lockport looking for somewhere, anywhere to eat. Like nothing was open , it was very strange. WE went in this one bar restauarant type place and asked if they had food and the bartender girl was like no but then the manager came out and was like we have a frier we can fry something for you. IT was very strange,like you serve food or you don't , so we left there. We ended up somewhere I believe was called Locks 5 or something like that and it was actually really good, so I guess the whole starving and not being able to find any food for like ever was worth it. OH WAIT and when we finally got to the restaurant that seemed open the door was locked but the waitress came andopened , I guess it locked by mistake or something....I would have died at that point if we couldn't have eaten there.

some Christmas prep 2012Dave tying up the tree we bought at Ace hardware on Summer. YAY! there is nothing like the anticipation of bring a tree home to decorate!
unpacking the decorations.
tree pre-decorations
We didn't have a tree topper and can't find any we really like. This was actually an ornament at Macy's that I got on super sale for like 2 bucks and it totally looks legit as a tree topper.
Decorated!
Some christmas cookies we made with eileen and her kids.
You can't tell form this picture but this Mary at the dollar store nativity set had waaay too much lipstick and rouge on!She did not look like a virgin mary in this set, that's for sure.
my Christmas cards this year.
