Valentine's Day....

Started off the day with the traditional heart-shaped waffles...



Baked and decorated sugar cookies... topped with pink frosting... a MUST!!



Ally made the cards and we delivered them to those so dear....


Too tired to go out for dinner and a movie...
so spinach dip and pizza from Smoky Mountain....


Ally and her candygram (and no that's not a spot on my wall... sheesh, stupid phone) which read...

Ally Bear...
        YOU are Extra Extra Extra amazing!!!                
We Snicker like Airheads whenever you're around...
It'll be hard for us when you Skittle on outta here =(
I don't know what I'll do w/o my Sugar Babie...I'll definitely be in one
of those Whatchamacallit states where I'm barely able to connect the Dots.
You have been such a Lifesaver - such a Starburst - in our home.
Not even 100 Grand could ever replace you...
Having you for a daughter is a Skor for eternity! <3
If you're ever in a Crunch, please know we'd do ANYTHING for you...
<3 U Sweetart



And Sarah.... the cutie... made TJ these pillows.
She photocopied love notes they'd written to each other
onto fabric and sewed them onto these pillows... <3 Sari


My sweet girl also made 'Basil Chicken Curry' for 
her in-laws to enjoy for their Valentine's Day dinner...

Playing an old game.....

..... Ally and I. It happened as we were driving down Ustick Rd. the other day and saw a car with a Hawaii license plate.... then 20 seconds later Connecticut and Pennsylvania.  Now, if you've never been on Ustick Rd, you might not understand the significance of that. Ally got Alaska yesterday. Guess I better get out more.

Thanksforgiving

'Thanksforgiving' is the title to my Thanksgiving Pinterest board.... And now looking at it, I just saw it in a whole new way.... thanks + forgiving... instead of, or in addition to thanks + for + giving Interesting.... wouldn't it be awesome if we all could just forgive others of their shortcomings and be grateful for them as they are and accept them at face value instead.... the way we hope they look at us? Today I think of so many things.... What comes to mind: St. George - spent many Thanksgivings there while growing up and always spent time horseback riding over that weekend 4-day school vacation Dang!  In the middle of making this list I just remembered I forgot to make the Corn Soup... ugh... The 'Turkey Bowl' LeSueur Pumpkin Crunch Torte... I made a half this year which is baking (hopefully... something's up with my oven) as I type.... and man oh man, it sure smells good!
