Thanksgiving Day

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;

his love endures forever.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving Baking

Today we have taken a break from school to bake pies, make sweet potatoes, and stuffing. When we were making the pumpkin pies mom added exactly double the amount of half and half that we needed in the filling. So we doubled the whole recipe and are going to make a pumpkin pie with pecan streusel using the extra filling. This will be our third pumpkin pie! I can't wait for tomorrow.

Creative Pumpkins

Last night my dad wrote on two other pumpkins. He does a very good job.

A Thanksgiving Quote

"There's always something for which to be thankful." - Charles Dickens.

I'm thankful for my family.

Fun with Cousins

Last Saturday night we had our weekly family dominoes game at our house. My cousins Julia, Emily, Olivia , and Amilia came. When I was in the kitchen Julia came into the kichen with a tub. It was so funny. She set it down and sat in it. ( Juilia first picture.) Then my mom got a bigger tub to see if she would want to sit in that tub. Juilia didn't want to but Amilia decided to sit in it.

Birdie Buffet

Yesterday my grandma and grandpa took Ellen and I to Lauritzen Gardens and took a class about how to make different kinds of bird feeders. These are some of the ones we made. I really enjoyed making them.

Jorje

On Ellen's Birthday I had set up a scavenger hunt. At the end was a dog I had crocheted. Ellen named it Jorje. It took a while to make.
