Remember when several months ago I had big ideas and goals regarding my blog? I guess I was making a joke cause nothings happened! Good times:)

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving, Michael's favorite holiday or as I call it the-day-before-the-Christmas-season-begins! lol. I like thanksgiving too!  And what better way to kick it off than a photo session with Elyse and Ruby.  I always love what she does, it is probably foolish of me to think if I get a cool camera I can be good too;)

Thanksgiving Fridge bursting with delights

Eating monkey bread and prepping for the dinner, thanks Melissa and Elyse! Look at the full cheeks on Browen. Sad this is fuzzy

Appetizer table, yes we eat before we eat. lol

Carving the Deep Fried Turkey. I am NOW a believer and we will never do it another way.

Kids end of the table.

Grown-ups end of the table. Check out Jake and his turkey. lol

What a great day with the Chamberlain, Airhart, Marrero, and Wilcox families.  What a blast:)

Peanut Festival

Alabama's Main crop is Peanuts. So every fall they hold the Peanut Festival with free peanuts in giant barrels.  Ofcourse they're boiled, which I'm not fond of...I prefer roasted and salted. Boiled they have a flavor like fresh peas from the garden (Which I like for Peas, but not Peanuts:) We went with the Chamberlains

Elephant Ears / Giant Scones

Grilled Drumsticks

Outside of the bulk-candy store. It was neat they had lots of things I remembered from being a kid.

Halloween

Halloween Time

We went to Alpin Farms to pick out pumpkins and pick fresh corn

These next couple of pictures crack me up. Roan looks like he's saying why are you taking these pictures, Mom?

Making Caramel Apples at our home with Chamberlains and Airharts. Thanks Elyse for your tasty caramel!

Halloween Night. Michael had to fly so it was me and the kids.  Our neighborhood was overrun, so after a short time on our street we drove over to another neighborhood with the Airharts and Christoffersons.

Paige the Bee, Liv the Dark Fairy, and Ninja Roan

Avie stayed home and handed out candy with friends:)
