The Small Tragedy
We had a small tragedy at our house this weekend.
Not life-threatening, just…
Well, you be the judge.
I made my holiday rolls. I wish I’d taken a picture – but they looked like this:
I also made a batch of cinnamon rolls…
They were delicious.
Now I’m hungry…
You sort of made me cry.
First – thank you to everyone who submitted a recipe! Soooo many great recipes…you made me hungry! And so many sweet entries accompanied by memories of grandma, or mom, or dad, or uncles. You got me thinking about my Mom, and all the love she put into Thanksgiving.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter…!
So, last week was a little weird for me. I got a taste of what my life would look like if I was a single gal, no one to force me to walk on the beach, or break for supper, or walk the dogs or even go out for a drive.
It sort of freaked me out.
What’s on the menu?
You getting hungry yet? I keep opening up my email to yet another delicious looking casserole to make for Thanksgiving.
Alas, Thanksgiving is going to look a little different this year for us. We’re not traveling, and no one is traveling to us. With our house still being repaired, we’re in Florida for T-day,
We’re at it again…
First – Thank you to all the veterans out there. If you’re a veteran, or the family member of a vet, thank you to you, also. (I’m the wife and a mom to 2 brave vets!) Our freedoms aren’t free, and I’m grateful to the heroes who stand on the line for us and protect our country.
A treat for you! (no trick necessary…)
So, admittedly, I don’t do much for Halloween. Our family, as missionaries in Russia never really partook in this event, and since we moved stateside when they were older, it wasn’t something we incorporated into our lives.
Especially since the 31st is also my son’s birthday.
31 years ago today.
So,
Oh, how I forgot…
It’s been a big week for the Florida Warrens..
This happened.
We are so excited to welcome our 5th grandchild, and 3rd granddaughter! She’s precious.
But that meant that we were on Maymay and Pops duty all week with this guy.
And oh, I forgot how exhausting 3 year olds are!
A day off and some honesty…
Hope you had a beautiful weekend! Hubs and our grandson had a epic playdate at a classic car show this weekend.
I decided this might be my new ride.
We then went to Lowes. Because that’s what you do on a Guy Playdate. Apparently, it’s time for Christmas!
And,
Look who I found on TV!
Hope you’re staying cozy as we dive deeper into fall! I am missing pumpkins up north…only to discover a farm down here that has pumpkins for sale! Hubs and I hung out with my son and his beautiful family on Sunday. (It was 85 degrees. I am missing the crunch of leaves!)
