Floor and Decor
Quality mother-in-law/son-in-law time. Utilizing Mom's expertise in the home decor field.

Adah woke up from bed to see what we had been up to. She's still sleepy but fits right in with our carvings.

Pear bourbon tart for dinner with our neighbors. Thank you, Baked, for this recipe I love.

Bidding farewell to a friend and relishing the fall charm that is The Fan.


November 1
Front yard
The lone uncarved pumpkin keeps a lookout on the soggy street. It looks like he already got into one fight.


November 2
Laundry room
Just noting our old dryer before we stick a new one in it's place. Things like this remind us how far we've come and the small progresses we've made.

Under the stairs
Very serious electrical discussions going on here.


November 4

Fish dishes make working at the computer all day more fun.

Celebrating Bob's birthday. Friends, family, and sweets.

Here's a bad kitty photo. (Not a misbehaving kitty, just a poor quality photo kitty.)


November 19

This is what dinner looks like when I work at a Fall Dessert class. 


November 20

I kind of like the spacey decor at this place.


November 21

Getting ready for the big day. I was not at all disappointed that I didn't have to make any pies for family Thanksgiving.


November 22
Goochland Drive-In
Pre-movie cartoons! A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. I want to go to the drive-in every night of my life! Okay maybe not that much, but a couple times a year is fantastic.

Office
Christmas crafting has begun.


November 24
Office
I found someone's secret stash of empty sunflower seeds...


November 25

Lame. But this is what Christmastime feels like (even though Thanksgiving hasn't even happened yet). Festive pj's and a fire in the stove.


November 26
Office
Craft corner. Going to town because I love paper!


November 27
Pasture
So the night before Thanksgiving was always the night you go out when you're home and you run into everyone you ever went to high school with. I haven't been home for Thanksgiving in a couple years. We hung out with these bozos the night before the holiday and I felt like it was a piece of new family growing. It was cool and it made me less sad to not be in Arkansas.

Carving the Turkey Day...pig!


November 29

Completed!


November 30

Another onesie to close it out.
