Turkeys & Troubles


Nothing to do with turkey.

Just really cute pictures.






Okay.  Here comes the Turkey part!

Did I mention that Katie LOVES crafts.....

Please take a look at our Katie-made
Thanksgiving decorations.

For a small fee, I would be happy to rent her out to take care of all
your decorating needs.










We were invited to our next door neighbors house again this year
for Thanksgiving dinner.

The dinner was delicious and a good time was had by all.

Here are the kids sitting at their tables.





After dinner, while the adults talked, talked, talked
the kids had some t.v. time, and then some craft time.....




.....and then it was Garage Dance Party Time!!!!





Here is the food tally.
Mikey ate: rolls and red velvet cake.
Katie ate: turkey, mashed potatoes, rolls and red velvet cake.
Huzbend and I ate:  way too much.

Soon the kids got tired and we made our exit.

I suspect that Katie wasn't really as tired as she had said,
because when we got home she begged and begged me to whip
up some candied yams.

I was happy to oblige.





The girl loves her candied yams.

But really, mostly the marshmallows.





On to the Troubles part now.

We all got sick the week of Thanksgiving.

Katie got a cough and had to go on double "steamies" to keep
her oxygen levels up.

Huzbend got the nasty cold and spent all last week driving to work.
Ye gods!!!

I admit, I was the one that started it all.  
I got sick the day before Thanksgiving..... and still have it.
My right ear is clogged up and I can't hear out of it - no infection yet.
I also have a bum left wrist requiring me to wear a brace.
Doc's have no idea what I did to it.  Xray was negative for a fracture.
So, it might be a strain or sprain.

Mikey got the cold right along with everyone else and he
was lucky enough to have it turn into early stage pneumonia.

YAY US!!!

April 2024 - Part 2

I'm not gonna lie. The rest of April was about Cinderella and pretty much just Cinderella.  We arrived back from Mexico for the start of...
