This Thanksgiving was a bit different.. It was the first Thanksgiving in my 30 years where I didn't get to see most of family..  Everyone has basically moved away.. it's sad and we missed them dearly! We actually skyped with them and chatted for a bit so that was fun.
Pop came over the night before and we started making Nana's Stuffing.. He taught me how to make it.. I was peeling the carrots and clogged my disposal and Pop took it all apart and told me to try it and water and grossness went everywhere! I screamed and ran away while pop just sat there covered in it! It was so funny. We got it all fixed and cleaned up though. The next morning I got up and finished cooking everything and we had a good meal. I'm getting pretty good at this cooking thing! :) who would have known! Xavy my VERY picky eater and stubborn child wouldn't even join us at the table because everything was "Gross" he said! GRRR....  so he had himself a pizza instead! The nut...  We had a very peaceful day playing games and I ended the night curled up in front of the fireplace admiring my sparkling tree! Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Halloween 2010

 My trick or treaters...
 Aiden as a skeleton guy...
Xav as Michael Jackson... Check the moonwalk out.. :)


Halloween was weird for us this year... It was the first year we were all alone! :( The boys were bummed that their uncle wasn't there to take them around and we missed seeing the baby and wished he could have been with us to trick or treat but we made due without them.... It was a rainy night but that didn't stop the boys! I followed in my car and they went running house to house.. They got tons of candy! Earlier in the day Pop came over with lunch and we carved pumpkins. It was fun..  the boys really get into now and it's fun to have little traditions with them.  Happy Halloween!! :)

Dusk...

My favorite time of day is dusk...  When the sun is setting..  I love to go for drives and listen to music.. It's like therapy for me. :) Thinking about the future and what it has in store for me... The sky was SO beautiful this night..  a pinkish/purplish color.  My fav! :)
