This and That

This post does show that I really do try to keep it real.

Elisabeth received a new coat for Sundays.

I have already posted that my husband had an emergency trip to be with family during his Dad’s surgery and hospitalization, and that before he left he brought home a cake to celebrate my birthday a day early so he could be there.

Here are the pictures. puffy eyes and end of the day hair and all. I tried to persuade my husband to not take pictures but he insisted, I am glad he did.  Here I am trying to keep Benjamin out of the cake and talk to Elisabeth.

Benjamin blew out the candles, I just pretended with him. He likes to blow out candles. At a friends house today he wanted to blow out her scented candle…no birthday cake under there son.

Yes, I asked for a waffle maker,my Blessings like waffles.

Now onto Thanksgiving…pie. Since it was just the Blessings and myself we chose a couple of pies to make…they chose chocolate and cherry. Elisabeth and I worked on the chocolate and Judith and I made a cherry pie.
