Hope everyone is having a good Thanksgiving Eve! Is the turkey out of the freezer yet? ;)

This afternoon, I made pumkin pie and cranberry muffins. I also prepared the sweet potato casserole to go in the oven tomorrow. John traditionally preps the turkey. I don't like pulling the gizzards out anyhow! Everything else can wait until tomorrow.

It's just going to be the three of us (Kevin, John, and I) for dinner, like last year. We are cooking a large dinner, so we might still be eating Thanksgiving turkey at Christmas! I've invited everyone over for Thanksgiving dessert. I have icecream, apple pie, pumkin pie, and Kim is bringing a lemon meringue pie. Seems like I'm forgetting something. Hopefully, Wilson Farms is open tomorrow if I remember whatever it is.

I've been trying to be creative and playing with Paint Shop Pro. I use clip art and add to it to make it into a personal creation. I'm just starting, so they're not anything to ooh or aah over. I made the Thanksgiving greeting above, and this one

for my new online shopping directory. In this directory, I've only included places that I have made online purchases at with no problems. If you have time, check them out. If you already plan on making online purchases, I would advise staying away from overstock.com and sears.com. (Unless you have an unlimited amount of patience.)

Saturday, we visited Art and his family. He was busy in the barn taking care of a deer he had shot. (ya'know what I mean...eww!)

Here's a couple of pictures of my sister-in-law, Karla; nieces, Jenna and Shaina; and MacKenzie:









Here's a picture of my nephew, John: (Nice smile!)



Here's a close up of the little angel:

Happy Thanksgiving to all, and to all, a goodnight!
