Let the Painting Begin

One step closer to my white kitchen although it is taking a LOT longer than I expected. But in the end I know it will be all worth it!

Thanksgiving I

We are too big for anyones' house now! This year we reserved the church and had our Thanksgiving all together.

Safety First

You never know when a helmet might come in handy. Even when your not on a bike.

Pumpkin Pie

Every year I try to save our Jack-o-lantern for future use. The only problem is that the only recipe that I make with pumpkin is pumpkin soup which no one likes but me. So my wonderful friend Sharon convinced me how easy it was to make pumpkin pie. (I'm not a big baker) they were so yummy and relatively easy. We had them for dinner!

Lilly's Halloween Costume

So I took a baby step this year and Galway made a costume. Lilly wanted to be Dorthy for Halloween and Didn't like the aprons at the store that had sequins. So I made one and it turned out pretty good of I do say so myself!

Mom and Foster Date

Foster said to me one day "mom, why don't you ever go out on a date with me?" So a date was planned and we went to the movies to see The Smurfs. Both of us had fun although Fosyer accused me of falling asleep during the movie. I said I was just blinking.

Off come the cupboard doors!

We are painting and the first step is prep work. Not my favorite job but a necessary evil.
