We had a good Thanksgiving. We have so much to be grateful for. I am grateful for this free country, having enough to eat, having good health, being able to stay home with my kids, a loving husband, and so much more. The Lord has blessed me and my family.
On a lighter note, I am thankful for a good pumpkin pie which we did not have on Thanksgiving. I was so excited that when I pulled the pie out of the oven it was perfectly golden. The crust was perfect, there were no splits in the top, and the knife came out clean as a whistle. I was so excited that the appearance of my pie was so lovely. Unfortunately, my recipe following abilities aren't as wonderful. I forgot the sugar.
I participated in Black Friday which I enjoy doing every year, mostly because my thirfty side comes out and I am always pleased with the amount of money I save. Later that day we set up the Christmas tree and put out our Christmas decorations. I love this time of year. It makes it so much fun to have kids to get excited with.
Paul's staples came out just fine and it's healing well. The picture of Paul was done while I was doing the dishes. I could hear him wrestling around and I knew he had found the dum dums, but I was surprised at how many he was able to get open in such a short amount of time.

The picture of Caleb is so stinking cute! He is adorable! The picture of Paul made me laugh out loud! He seems like he must be so much fun to have around! I bet he had an awesome sugar high after eating all of that! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving too! Also, will you e-mail me your address? We are hoping to get out Christmas cards this year!!! mandi.harris@gmail.com
I"m sorry your pie didn't work out. I had pie at someone's house once and they forgot the sugar...not good! Your kids are so cute and I'm glad Paul was able to get his staples out!
Bummer about the pie! I would have been so sad, I love pie! I'm pretty impressed with how many dum dums Paul unwrapped, he's fast :)
On the bright side, at least the pie was pretty to look at! :) And it sure looks like you have 2 beautiful boys to be thankful for this year! That dum dum picture is awesome. Man he IS fast!
Paul never ceases to amaze me. He looks so innocent!
I love the picture of Paul and his candy. I love the way kids minds work. I'm so glad he's doing better now. Bummer about the pie. You'll have to make it up for Christmas. :) Caleb is really cute in that sweater.
Oh how cute the pictures are, and the pumpkin pie story is very funny. We love you and miss you!
Oh, that bites! I would be so mad at myself. but at least it looked pretty ;)
