MM!!!! Can You Smell The Turkey And Dressing?

we are out for thanksgiving and i am so excited. today when i got off work david and i and the girls went and looked for a wall oven. we found one at lowe's and we are ordering it tomorrow. we had to come home and remeasure to make sure we were ordering the correct size. we got a great deal on it.

our home was built in the sixties, so our oven doesn't have those vents at the top or bottom like a lot of them do now. so our oven size will actually be a little smaller. but that's ok. they will deliver it in ten days. i am excited to have one again. we have been living with out an oven for four months. but my sister was sweet enough to lend us their counter oven thingie. and for us it was quite big enough. maybe it is a toaster oven? however it is bigger than a toaster oven. can you tell i am not a Master Cook?

this may sound wierd, but one of the things i do at the beginning of every vacation is clean my house. i just enjoy the holiday better, if my house is clean. so me and the girls and david started cleaning at 4:00 and we finished at about 6:30. the girls are really becoming a big help in helping keep the house clean. and just cleaning the house. then we had supper. thank the Lord for hamburger helper. my girls love it.

tomorrow, we will go get all of the groceries for thanksgiving. i always make the pecan pies, one with chocolate chips, one with out. i also make pistachio green salad. it is so good. sometimes hannah and i will make an apple pie. it is a recipe that hannah got from la, and ang. when they were holding that princess class on sunday nights up at the church. by the way thanks.

then tomorrow night, we will go to my sister lisa's house and bake. we have been doing that for many years. the girls really enjoy it. so do i. i love my big sis. thanksgiving is going to be at her house this year.

friday her and i and my sister in law will go shopping. it is going to be a great weekend. it's going to be cold. YAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ttfn.......

your post was wonderful!
I cannot tell you how many times I wonder about what's going on with you... Thanks for bringing me up to date on it all!
I have never heard of chocolate chips in pumpkin pie. I am responsible for bringing the pies, maybe I can steal your recipe? I think I'll take a pumpkin, an apple, and one new recipe...
I hope you enjoy your time with your family - I am looking forward to hearing about the memories!
