One Down One To Go

Rory had his last final today! Somehow with 2 kids, no sleep, work, church, homework, projects and whatever else he passed all his classes with A's and B's. I'm so proud of him. We are SO happy he is done with his last fall semester at UNLV. One semester down, one to go.

Sundays

It's always fun dressing up the tiny ones for church. Thanks Grandma LOL for the cute dress and boots.





















After a mad dash to try and get the four of us to church by 9am, we are usually pretty exhausted when we get home. On this particular Sunday we just crashed in between visits and apppointments rather than honor our usual afternoon of "family nap time." Aren't Sundays great?

Happy Thanksgiving!


There's nothing like homemade pies. Rory made an apple pie and a peach pear pie and I made the rolls for Thanksgiving at my brother's place. We weren't too sad that everyone was full from dinner. More for us!

I found a 20 lb. turkey for five bucks the other day and we were able to have a Thanksgiving feast for dinner Friday night and again last night complete with homemade stuffing baked IN the turkey, rolls, candied sweet potatoes, homemade cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and gravy. We made everything from scratch. We still have SO much turkey left. I guess we'll be having turkey enchiladas, turkey soup, etc. YUM!!!! I love to eat! It's a cruel enjoyment as I'm STILL trying to lose baby weight. Oh who am I kidding. I'm not really trying. The story of my life as said best by the Gap Girls on SNL, "Diet starts Monday!"
