Wreath Love

I love wreaths, and I even made this one at Super Saturday last weekend. It was pretty easy, despite a pretty bad glue-gun burn. No Pain, No Gain!

So Grateful!

I love being able to celebrate two thanksgivings a year. I really have lots to be grateful for, so why not. Plus, I love turkey dinner. We celebrated our American Thanksgiving last Saturday. We had friends over, ate a delicious meal, and enjoyed a great evening together.

This was my frist time ever making pies (not counting making them with my mom in YW once).

I used the pure lard Tenderflake crust and I think it was a success. The apple and cherry tasted delicious.

Yum! Turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, sweet potato, cauliflower with white sauce and cheese, carrots, corn, and homemade buns!

Our friends we met in Fort McMurray, Desiree and Dayley (he is half american too).

"Yay for thanksgiving!!"

Macy's Favorite Place

The window on our stairs is the best place to be. You can go up and down the stairs and there is tons to look at out in that big snowy (yes, we finally had snow, but its kind of nice) world!

Reading

I haven't been very good at updating my 'What I'm Reading' but I have been reading some good books lately.

I really enjoyed 'The Help'. I saw the movie first and then read the book and thoroughly enjoyed both. I'm on 'The Son of Neptune' now and so far so good. I only wish that I had re-read the Percy Jackson series and 'The Lost Hero' as I am forgetting a lot of what happened. Must be getting old. Anyway, I'm always looking for good book recommendations, so send yours my way. Thanks!
