Making some Christmas Cheer

We had a great time painting sugar cookies with Ben's mom and grandmother and my younger sibs!

Over the river and through the woods...

Here are some photos from our trip to Wilkesboro, NC. We had a great time visiting, and are looking forward to traveling back at Christmas time for a family reunion.

Thanksgiving Favorites Include:

*Seeing Granny looking so well and energetic.
*Playing cards with everyone.
*Listening to music played by Dad, Papa, and close friends Lynn, Donny, and Jimmy
*Thanksgiving dinner, of course. Complete with a turkey roasting pot full of homemade macaroni and cheese (Granny doesn't cook in small amounts)
*Running with Rufus through field and pasture
*Fillets and twice-baked potatoes, both cooked to perfection on Saturday night.
*Traveling with Ben's sister Sarah, and listening to Ender in Exile
* Visiting, relaxing, laughing, and talking around the fire.
