Truly special Prancer. I love cooking also especially festive menus. My family lives overseas. I would love it if one year we can all be together.We have had all the family over at ours for the past 20yrs so i am used to cooking for the whole family..I love cooking and i also love having the family around the table on the big day..
Good morning, Solice!
Merry Monday!
Happy November!!
How many days until your trip?

The way this year is flying bye 7 weeks is not too far away 'Gulp'
Me too. It was tough the first few years and part of me is always homesick especially at christmas but I have learned not to let it get me down. I never ever thought I could enjoy christmas without them but I have adapted and have my own family here now. It's life. we may not be together physically on christmas but we are in each others hearts and thoughts always.
Right around the corner!The way this year is flying bye 7 weeks is not too far away 'Gulp'
Right around the corner!
17 days!
Cant wait to be in the US again.
It feels like coming home (strange I know!)
How are you? I miss you
And I cant believe we're in NOVEMBER!??
November came to fast...
Yes, very true. There's so little free time during the week. Almost non-existent.
FUN! Sounds like a productive weekend!
Sounds like you had a great weekend! Didn't you just open the pool? Lol ~ seems like it!Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!
It's wet and warm and yucky around here today...BUT IT'S NOVEMBER!!
Saturday was a big day for me. My brother and I sold the engine out of my Camaro to a guy who was willing to pay big $$ for it, so I spent several hours unbolting it from the car, getting it ready to go.
Then we did the Trick-or-Treat in Bellville. It was my first year with both of my kids feeling they were finally too old to T-or-T. Sad! But Jacob helped me hand out candy, and talked about stuff for a couple hours, so I enjoyed that.
That night, we went to a local restaurant owned by an old friend of mine. We've both played in different bands for years, but his current band is his children. It sounds hokey, but NOT! They rolled out! They were playing songs from Journey, Heart, Kansas...all those old wonderful early-80's bands. I LOVED IT!! Then Jacob's guitar teacher's band got up and played. Another great show!
The only negative through the weekend was my twice-failed efforts to close and cover the pool. Grrrr.
I hope y'all have a great day!
Oh no! I'll be hoping you can hold off for at least this year. What a bummer!My eldest who is 8yrs just asked me if Santa was real and wondered if it was dad and I who put the presents under the tree.
Obviously I said yes that Santa is real. Hopefully I have at least another year before we have 'the talk' and I explain that Santa is real just not in the way he thinks.
I'm not ready for this ...
NEVER!Tell us to shut up Holiday
Thank you!Thank you, it has! Although it's extra nuts at work!
It sounds like you have a lot of fun Christmas celebrations with your lake friends ahead!
Have fun next weekend at your future niece's shower & bachelorette party!
Perfect!Yes, it will be a lot of fun w/ family, great food, football and shenanigans I'm sure!
Go for it!Good Afternoon/Evening...Hope everyone is having a good day so far...Been humming christmas songs all day today...Who's feeling soo christmassy like me right now...I am struggling to hold it together here...I just wanna decorate GRRRRRRRR!!!...lol
Enjoy the shows & cider & "snow"! Stay safe if you have to travel in fog tomorrow!Evening all,
These dark nights are making me long for twinkling fairy lights and the comfort of christmas decorations. Christmas movies and music aren't the same with out them!!
Thick fog has moved in and has cast a white glow against the night. So thick in fact that if I squint my eyes I can pretend it's snow
It's been a good Monday. I planned on getting some work done later but I think after the kids go down I am going to have a mulled cider and watch some shows. Hope you have a cosy end of day.

When you put it like that, it really does seem like just yesterday we were celebrating the 1st day of the "ber" months. WOW!!
Good night prancer. Enjoy the movie!Its goodnight from me...Gonna get the girls ready for bed then chill out and watch a movie
It would be convenient if we had a slow motion button like on those vcr remote controls.I know...so much to do, so little time!
When all I really want is things to slow down so we can all take it in & enjoy it!
You're making me hungry again...
