Thanksgiving Day... and More!

This Thanksgiving was simple.

That's the way I like it.

Unlike most years in the past, we celebrated this holiday at home with just us.  It was so relaxing... so laid-back actually that we FORGOT the mashed potatoes till about five minutes before eating!  Everything else was wonderful though!

Enjoy these holiday pics!

Thankfulness... Looking back at this week

OH MY WORD!

These past couple days have been a whirlwind of happenings, leaving me with hardly any time to check my email, let alone update my blogs! I'm sitting in the kitchen at the little breakfast table/nook listening to my sister name off movies she'd like to watch tonight and half-watching my dad as he drains the turkey frame for our turkey-frame soup that we'll be able to enjoy on Sunday!

So, a recap of the three week-days before Thanksgiving: (warning, this will be a log-ish post, but fun since I have pictures to go with Wednesday!)

What I've Loved About November...

Pretty mugs...

Little Leaf

I adore this picture.

I was playing around with the camera one day and fell in love.

Bright red leaf

Green, yellow, and brown grass.

It's C-c-cold Outside!

I'm a cold person.

No, not cold-hearted.

I'm not Ebenezer Scrooge.

(I love "A Christmas Carol"!)

The Day After Sunday...

So fresh

So new

So strong

So true:

Yesterday.
