All I want for Christmas...

Is my Auntie...

Thanks Aunt Michelle!

Prayer Room

This past weekend, I got to see for the first time the plaque created in memory of Mom. The church named the prayer and conference room for her because of her unwavering commitment to prayer.After reading "Same Kind of Different as Me" (there was a picture of loved ones in a chapel that was named for a great woman of God who worked with the homeless) I wanted to make sure we got our picture with it.
This Thanksgiving I'm extremely thankful for a legacy of prayer and faith left by a Proverbs 31 woman! That legacy will be passed on to her daughters and grandkids!

Tea Party

I was treated to a tea party thanks to Kara!

Kara's Pumpkin

Remember this one from last year? That one was bought. Kara grew this giant pumpkin and then painted it.
Cute, huh?
And this is a cute outtake picture.

Happy Thanksgiving 2011

Here's Kara annual Thankful tree. See a previous year's here.

Some notable "leaves" are vechtibls (vegetables), sevinteen (the #17), speseels (Speziales), prpl (purple) and Gob (God).
Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy, Handsome Baby

Ignoring the messy living room in the background and blurry, phone camera picture, this is my new favorite picture!

WFMW-How to Save Bacon

It's been awhile since I've participated in WFMW...but I think I've got a good one!

Instead of letting bacon go bad (since our small family doesn't eat in that often), when I get the bacon (either turkey or regular) from the store, I immediately roll each slice individually. Then place them in a freezer bag. Each morning that Kara or I want bacon, I nuke as many pieces as we want (to thaw) and then cook however!
Yum!
