All right, all right...

I know it's been forever. Believe me, I've had every intention of blogging more, but life just kind of got in the way. I even took several random photos just to post on the blog but I just didn't get around to it.

Anyway, I guess I'll just post them now...here we go.

In the past month we've made some snowman pancakes, gone for fast food at Burger King and crowned Queen Grace, washed Ben's Truck, finished out Grace's Soccer season, had Oma & Opa down for a quick visit and much, much more.

We spent Thanksgiving in Winthrop with the In-laws. We had boys going to shoot at the gunrange, cousins playing guns with legos, Mom's relaxing wiht a good book or playing a computer game, spirited games of cards; Grandpas, Uncles and Nephews competing in a heated game of Ping Pong, and much more. I played around with my camera settings and caught this cool shot of Adam. Doesn't it look like the invisible man playing? I love this shot.

The rest of the photos taken at Thanksgiving were mainly for the Gratitude Album I put together from last year's Treasury kit. I tried to get everyone to fill out their "what are you grateful for" page. With mixed results.

For dinner this year we decided to try something different and we headed out to Sun Mountain Lodge. In theory it was a great idea, no cooking, no dishes, no leftovers to store away, and so on. But then we got to thinking and I think Thanksgiving is still best at home. It would have been fabulous to have leftover stuffing, cranberry sauce and such. Although, my dear Mother-In-Law did bake a turkey breast for sandwiches, bless her heart and slaved away baking some awesome pumpkin pies. Since it was Adam's 16th birthday on the 17th and he always asks for his favorite, we sang "Happy Birthday" and ate Pumpkin Pie. It was a lot of fun. Now it's back to reality and looming Christmas deadlines....
