A Spoonful of Cinnamon

Have you ever tried a food challenge before? Drinking a whole gallon of milk in one sitting, eating a whole watermelon, eating a whole box of saltine crackers...or maybe eating a spoonful of cinnamon? Well, here is what happens when you try the cinnamon challenge. Watch the video below to see how Brian did. 


Brian and I were in Juneau for this particular challenge. We had a great vacation over New Year's and got to be there a little over a week. We had a ton of fun. We attending a wedding, a NYE party, hung out with tons of friends and had some good times with Brian's family. 

I didn't take a ton of pictures, because I really have many pictures of Juneau already, but here is a few of the beautiful snow and a snowshoeing walk we went on.

Finishing Fall and Beginning Winter

We decided to do a quick update. It has been over a month since we last posted. Whoops!!  Anyway, fall is an awesome time of year. I love the fall colors and have tried hard not to put too many pictures up of the colors. 

Found this tree leaf, was amazed by the size. 

Here is the traditional Halloween picture. A great tradition.

This was a great birthday party for our friend, Troy. Mini golf under black lights!!


Sarah and Darla and I, once again, decided to frost way too many cookies and make some fudge for our holiday season. Those two are excellent cookie decorators!


More pictures coming later!
