Thanksgiving 2008

Hi all! It's been awhile since I've last posted a blog...sorry about that. Things have been a tad bit busy in the Schick household. And this post will be a quick one - I'm heading off to a local mission to serve take and serve lunch. Whew - what a day!

We went to North Carolina to visit Sean's sister for Thanksgiving! We got to see their new home, visit the beach, shop at a cigar/everything else store, and had lunch at a local winery. I won't be posting any pictures because I don't want to spoil any Christmas cards that will be going out soon... :)

After LONG travels home, we finally arrived back in Bloomington around 12:30 PM last night. I promptly went to the store and bought a rump roast to make Italian Beef and 6 boxes of augratin potatoes for the mission lunch today. Our luggage didn't make to Bloomington, and it's still sitting in Atlanta as I type this. So, it's a baseball cap and no make up for me until I get it! Yikes!

And for my southern family and friends....here is what we woke up to this morning. Merry Christmas!

Little mounds of snow on top of our walkway lights

Looks to be at least 5-6 inches deep

Where have I been?

First of all - HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my brother, Kendall!

I know...it's been awhile since my last blog. But, to be honest, I haven't done much to really blog about lately! This weekend we had the big Schick family Thanksgiving. I was 'assigned' to bring sweet potatoes, and I started sweating because I've never made anything with sweet potatoes. But, I lucked out finding an awesome recipe online and they turned out great! Need that recipe for T-giving - here you go! http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Moms-Sweet-Potato-Bake/Detail.aspx

Saturday we went to the IL vs. OSU football game. Brrr....it was a cold one. Illini lost...but the bright side of the game is that the Chief made a brief appearance! You should've heard the crowd!

Today I took pictures of some friends and their baby. I'll have a few up as soon as I can get them edited.

That's about it...sorry for leading a somewhat boring life lately. :) Ha ha!

Two years ago...

...Sean and I got married! Wow - it's really true - time flies when you're havin' fun! A few pictures from our first day as husband and wife!

Mmmmm....wedding cake :)

Here are a few shots from the other two photo sessions I did over the weekend. You can view the rest at http://www.flickr.com/photos/karischick!

A weekend of photo sessions!

I had three photo sessions this weekend! Whew! And I have confirmed with myself that I have a loooooong way to go before I can even consider calling my self somewhat of a professional. :) Here are a few of my favorites from the Morris family session. The leaves were just so beautiful! I'll post my favorites from the other two sessions in a few days...

Happy (belated) Halloween!

Happy Halloween from the Harley Schicks!

Git R Done!

That's right...we saw the man live last night - Larry the Cable Guy! I wasn't sure what to expect because I've never seen a show of his, but he is hilarious! We had a great time! Kendall (my brother) hooked us up with free tickets and meet & greet passes.
