Happy Turkey Day Ya'llWe had a great holiday, but we forgot to take pictures (except for the one above). We had a white Thanksgiving, the first real snow of the year! Thursday, we spent the day with our friends the Halls. Laura's Mom and brothers came up as well so we had a full house. Thanks to Laura we had tons of delicious food to eat! Friday we decided to do our own Thanksgiving feast so we baked a turkey and did all the yummy side dishes. I made an apple caramel pie and Jeremy made a chocolate meringue pie and we have decided that pie has been sadly and sorely missing from our every day lives and that we need to remedy that. So we have a new goal to make more pies and lots of them, the first two on the list to attempt are coconut cream and strawberry rhubarb. But the best part, of course, was that Jeremy had five entire days off of school and spent only a couple of hours on Saturday studying-hooray!!!!
Hope all of you had a wonderful holiday!!!

So what are you going to name your baby? I'll give you one hundred dollars (seriously) if you name him after a Fraggle. Here are your options: Gobo, Wembley, Boober, Moki, and Red. Uncle Max is not an option.
Gobo Shakespear. I think it's spectacular.

I have enjoyed the pies too. Our cub scouts were having a pie funraiser so Zac bought two, a pecan and a pumpkin. I am in love with the pumpkin. I also made a upside down carmel apple pie. Let me just say...YUMMMY! I will have to post the recipe. Loves to you all!
