Another Post....wow!

So, I'm hoping you'll all be very happy with me since I'm posting again. This will probably be my last post before Thanksgiving, since life here will be busy. No, I'm not cooking Thanksgiving dinner, we are going to my sister's house...and she's doing all the WORK!!! Well, I'm bringing my famous Pecan Pie....love pecan pie! And yes, I mean work. I've had Thanksgiving here before. The first time was when Becca was in preschool, some 7 years ago. I had it all together then. The turkey came out great, all the sides came out delicious too. I was excited about it, didn't dread all the work. Now I dread everything..... I don't know what it is....life was so much more simpler than. I also had Thanksgiving here the year before Davey came. It wasn't very good. The turkey wasn't done on time. I don't know what happened that day, but I feel it was a disaster! I think everyone had a great time, we had 14 you know. I've cooked many a turkey before, but that year wasn't very good. I think my kitchen is way to small for a large crowd and me preparing Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone loves to gather in my kitchen, which is fine, but when I have tons to get done, please get out of my way :) So I'm very happy to be going to my sister's house this year....and every year to follow to be honest with you all.

Thanks to my sister who helped me with the changes in my blog. I had a hard time doing it. Thankfully, Davey was sleeping while we spent almost 1 hour on the phone going through the changes. I really think it looks good. Do you like the sign "Live, Laugh, Love"? I love that saying. I have a sampler of it in entrance way......"Live Well, Laugh Often, Love Much"...absolutely love that saying.....now if only I can do the laughing more often.....I use to laugh so much way back when...............

It's still very cold here, only 33 today. I do like it, again, it's the cozy feeling of winter setting in. So, to all my friends in "blogworld", have a wonderful, and blessed Thanksgiving. We all have so much to be thankful for.

Your blog looks great Liz. Yes, I'm very impressed you were able to blog so much this week. Now I will have to spruce up my blog sometime in the next few weeks.

Have a great Thanksgiving at your sister's house. I'm sure you will all have a great time.

See you Tuesday!

Yes, I will be happy to Thanksgiving every year...it's my favorite holiday. You can just sit and relax next Thursday and watch the fire. Have a nice surprise for an activity after dinner! And, YES you will participate!!!

Wow, the "Behrs" have an "activity" after dinner? We never do anything fun like that..since all you and mom do is stay in the kitchen and clean it all up......excited! We're not gonna sit around in the living room and sing songs with Olivia playing the guitar like we did that one Christmas many, many years ago with the cousins.....ARE WE??? Did you guys make up a song about our family, like that one Christmas with the cousins????? Maybe I'm not too excited now!

no guitar playing or singing I promise...although I can hear daddy now...you should sing a duet or better yet a trio! Or mother can play the piano and you can sing.
