Our boys, Hayden and Cameron have been having fun with a class called Home Life. They have various projects to do such as: cooking, baking, sewing, home maintenance, wood craft, and lots more. So far they have made pizza from scratch, changed the filters on the furnace, and just last night made pumpkin pie from scratch (store bought crust though).
We had a very quiet Thanksgiving this year. Just our kids in residence, Jess, Joylynn and their kids, & Bob and Lita. Smallest group here in years. Now that dinner has been eateh everyone is either downstairs watching football on HDTV or in the den watching Madagascar. I just put the first batch of dishes through the dishwasher. Time to tackle the hand wash and get all the cooled leftovers in the fridge. Tomorrow starts the Christmas shopping and decorating. I think more than sugar plums have been dancing in heads here for some time now. Christmas music has been tuned in on our van radio since Halloween. Somehow seems more appropriate to listen to it this afternoon.
Hope you all found a quiet moment today to reflect on how blessed you all are in so many ways. Happy Holidays to you all!

Thanks for such a wonderful Thanksgiving! I'm so happy to have family like you.
What? I wasn't at your house for Thanksgiving?? Where was I then? Weird...
I'm sorry Cherise, you got lumped in with the family in residence. CHERISE WAS HERE! It was super fun to have her here for so brief a time. Next time you better stay longer!
