How was your Thanksgiving? Mine was enjoyable. :) The usual delicious foods... pies... cold, fall air.
Here's a few pictures showing my Thanksgiving.
Everything packed in the vehicle. :)
I went out and took some pictures of all the fall-ness. It isn't this pretty at MY house. ;) I took some of "my" little country boy, too- see them here.
Sometime after lunch I went with my mom, aunts, and grandma on a walk. We went down a road full of Amish places. It's a good idea to take a long walk on Thanksgiving. ;)
After the walk we had pie! :) I should've tried more different kinds- I only ate pumpkin pie and cheesecake (yea, someone kinda hacked the cheesecake :P) BUT I got to eat apple pie for breakfast Friday. ;)
That's pretty much it. Besides hanging out, of course. :)
The next day I went with my mom, aunts, and grandma shopping. We didn't get up early- just went around lunch. I had an enjoyable time, and even found a coffee drink I really like! ;D It was a peppermint mocha frappuccino. I had to figure out how that was all spelled- you can tell I'm not a coffee drinker. I like the flavor, but I don't like regular coffee, and I usually get sick of other coffee drinks after awhile. But this one was great! :) I know, it probably doesn't have much coffee in it, but it was the right amount for me. ;) Then when we went out to the vehicle, I was sipping a cold drink in the freezing air! ;P
Yesterday we decorated for Christmas! =D We usually take forever to finally do it (and we don't have very many decorations), but this time we got on it fast. :) There's a Christmas party with my homeschool group youth coming up, and I'm excited about that. :)
Until we meet again... which should be soon, I'm sure. ;P
HOW DID YOUR THANKSGIVING GO? DO YOU HAVE ANY CHRISTMAS PARTIES COMING UP?
Great post, Natasha! AND OH MY WORD THAT LAST PHOTO OF YOUR BROTHER. Sooo much cuteness, and the composition of that picture was very good, as well! =)
ReplyDeleteOur Thanksgiving was awesome! We had our grandparents, our uncle, our aunt, and our cousin come over. We ate a lot of food, played games, sang a wholllle bunch of hymns (we LOVE to sing together! =)), and all in all had a great time! Looks like you had a pretty awesome Thanksgiving, too. =)

Double thanks! :)
DeleteThat's great that you had an awesome Thanksgiving! It's always fun to get together with family on the holidays. :)
Yep, we had a good time too. :)
Sounds like fun! I had a good weekend, too. We went to my Grandpa's house Thanksgiving Day, like always. Not the whole family came (like, we were missing some aunts and uncles - MY whole family went ;P) but it was still fun. The food was so good! Turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, and corn. That's all I ate, but we had other things - that I don't like. Like stuffing and cranberry sauce.
ReplyDeleteWe sang some songs, and later ate dessert. We had like six different pumpkin pies! I ate the one my grandpa made because it was his first time making it. It was PERFECT! =D
Then my cousin came and stayed with us from Friday to Sunday. We had a house full on Saturday night, and I got to cuddle with Kaaren! <3
I have no idea when we are going to have our Christmas party and do the exchange. This time of year is so busy for us. We do a Warnke Christmas, a Stenersen Christmas, our own Christmas, AND us girls do our own. All crammed in one month. ;P
We decorated for Christmas on Friday, but we don't have a tree yet. We like to wait awhile so it isn't dead by Christmas.
Those pictures of your "country boy" are so cute!! <3
Yep! :) It sounds like you had a great Thanksgiving too! :) Yes, the food is always soo good! And I LOVE pumpkin pie. :D That's cool that your grandpa made one. :)
DeleteWow, it sounds like you're going to have an awesomely busy December! :D
I don't know if we're going to have a tree or not. We don't always. Last year we got one from the woods. ;D
Thank you! :)
Oooh, Natasha, you actually got a live tree!! We never have, but it seems like such a cool idea!

That sounds like such a fun Thanksgiving! :D
ReplyDeleteI still need to put up our decorations (my parents don't really enjoy Christmas as much as I do *winks*). I can't wait for Christmas! It's my favourite time of the year! :D
And it's FINALLY gotten cold at our house! It's been raining for the past week or so and it's been SO wonderful! :)
I'm glad you had a great Thanksgiving, and I hope you enjoy your Christmas party! :)

It was nice! :)
DeleteYea, sometimes it takes us forever to finally decorate! Not this year. ;) Yes, it's definitely a great time of year! :D
It's cold here too! Fall came at last. ;) It was rainy and really windy today.
Thank you! :)
I tried pumpkin pie and cheesecake for the first time this Thanksgiving! :D It was delicious.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos!
For the first time?! Well you aren't missing out any longer. ;) I love both! :D
DeleteThank you! <3
