A Ravens Win
The pressure was on – a birthday present redeemed, frigid temperatures, first football game for half the family, and the Ravens facing their Steelers rivals. But the Ravens delivered with a strong showing and an ultimate win, clinching a spot in the playoffs!

Always an adventure, holiday decorating was a little closer to Christmas this year since we traveled over the Thanksgiving holiday. It was a beautiful day to pick out a tree and support the organization that sponsors one of Owen’s soccer teams, with a fairly smooth tree decorating at home!
