What did you ask for from Santa?

This morning while typing out our annual Christmas letter (yes, I know it's the 13th) Bobby and Abby were writing their letters to Santa.  Bobby signed his name and put his in the envelope all by himself.  I was  asking him what he asked for Christmas and he said, "I would like a garbage truck with garbage cans and Daddy as the garbage man." I then turned my focus to Abby and asked the same question to which she replied, "DADDY!" Precious, I know.

Better late than never - how cliche!

This is one of the projects the kids and I made for Thanksgiving, a turkey hat.  I also made a bushel of wheat bread loaf.  This is before I baked it.  It was very pretty on the table at my in - laws.  I also made a cornucopia for actual Thanksgiving.  It's in the lower right hand of the picture above.  I had so much fun preparing and setting everything.
