Okay, now we’re full. The turkey was much larger than needed, but great for leftovers. Even the little boys ate pie…chocolate was a hit. They weren’t too sure about orange salad yet, maybe next year. Tre was very excited to get here and find there was a “real turkey” in the oven. He didn’t think […]
Weekend Plans
Hi there…just checking in. Jon worked at the farm till 10:30 tonight so he got home the same time Greg and Megan got here from Des Moines. She has to drive back to work in the morning and then come back and Tabbi and crew will be over on Sunday for Thanksgiving. So tomorrow I […]
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!! I hope you all had a very nice day…ours was a little different than usual. We slept late and had breakfast then Jon went to grind dyes while I baked buns for Sunday and brownies for tonight. We were at my mom’s from about 4 to 7 then back home. Tomorrow Jon will […]
Getting Ready?
Are you getting ready for Thanksgiving? I went to the grocery store tonight and I think I have everything, but we aren’t having our official Thanksgiving till Sunday. Tomorrow we will go to my mom’s mid-afternoon to see the LeMars clan and whoever is able to come of the local crew for a little while. […]
Megan’s Here!
It’s Megan’s turn for a little spoiling. She came here last night after work and is coming again tonight after work. She leaves by 6:00 in the morning to get back to work again, but I get a little time to feed and spoil her…tonight we’re having roast with potatoes, onions, and carrots in the […]
It’s Emmy’s Birthday!!!
I borrowed a couple of pictures from Kelli’s blog to celebrate Emmy’s 5th birthday. This is her very special Sponge Bob pineapple house birthday cake. Her mom is far more creative than I was…candy decorations and “Happy ___th Birthday _____” on top. Good job, Kelli. And HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EMMY!!!! Yesterday I caught up on most […]
Just Do It!
I got up at 6:30 this morning, but I’m having a hard time actually getting started on a long list of things I need to do. I did start laundry, next is to go get a lot of groceries…that’s what’s slowing me down…I don’t really want to go then unload them in the snow, oh […]
No News Can Be Good News
Another ordinary day today, and tomorrow is FRIDAY!!! What are your plans for the weekend? Sunday is Emmy’s 5th birthday, and we’ll be calling her and celebrating from here. Glad we got to see her early November and celebrate then. No big news I guess…all of you have a great Friday and weekend to follow!! […]
Renewing the Mind
Jon actually didn’t have to work after work today. He took his bike to the shop in Avoca for some work and I went to pick him up. Laundry, supper, all the usual stuff. We got full of corn today at work so things will slow down a little for a while. Sounds good to […]
The Complete Works of E.M. Bounds on Prayer
Jon came home with a really bad headache tonight…gave him all the TLC I could and now he’s lying down in the dark quiet spare room (hope he doesn’t end up in Narnia!). Hopefully, he will feel like new when he wakes up…whether tonight or tomorrow morning. Did a little reading tonight again in E.M. […]
