Merry Christmas to everyone!

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas! This is a time to make memories that will last a lifetime. Hold your loved ones tight and believe in the spirit of Christmas!

Christmas Presents - almost there!

I think I have most of the presents except for a few money gifts. That feels great! I wrote the cards out yesterday and today. They go in the mail tomorrow. We are not putting up a Christmas tree because the puppy would destroy it. She is curious about everything. Most of the time she has to taste new things in order to figure them out. I do have a wreath on the door.

First snowfall of the season

We had the 1st snowfall of the season today. It was so pretty. The snow stuck to the ground and the trees but not the road. So it was easy to get around. My St. Bernard puppy just loved being in the snow. It was her 1st snowfall ever.

Great Thanksgiving!

We had a great Thanksgiving! Food was good and the company was even better. There were 20 people (adults & children) at my house on Thanksgiving. We had turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, cranberry relish, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, corn, biscuits and a ton of desserts. We even sang Happy Birthday to Denny. His birthday is December 6th. we were a little early.

Started Christmas shopping already

I have started Christmas shopping already. I just want to get it done. I also want to make something for everyone but not sure what I will be making yet. So far my shopping has been on-line. It is so easy as long as you have seen what you are buying :-). You can go on many sites and put in the age and they will give you suggestions. Pretty neat!

Well we were suppose to go camping in October

We were suppose to go camping in October (weekend of the 16th) but it just rained too hard. I was disappointed. Usually October is a beautiful time to camp. The leaves are just beautiful, the night are cool, and the days are warm - but not this year.

I went to Pippenfest last Sunday

I went to Pippenfest in Fairfield, PA last Sunday. They had crafts for sale. They also lots of food. They were selling apples, apple dumplings, apple pies, and apple fritters. Even though the weather was a little iffy, it was nice.

We had the Pig Roast last weekend

We had the 2nd annual pig roast last weekend. The weather was great, the people were fun, and the food was delicious! We had a great big bonfire. We also had a 12 foot screen that we watched movies outside. I think everyone had a great time!

Labor Day Weekend

We went to the Western Maryland Streetrod Show in Cumberland, MD. It is a great show! They feed you on Saturday & Sunday. We camp there with friends. They have a band on Friday, Saturday, & Sunday nights. They have jousting with the cars and my husband entered but did not win. They have poker runs on Friday and Saturday. They have a Women's World which includes homemade crafts, jewelry, home decor. It is just a great weekend and a great show! They also have games for the children. All the money is donated to the Crippled Children's Fund. We had a great time!

Watching the NASCAR Race at Richmond

JR seems to be doing better the last couple of races. That is good. Maybe JR and his crew chief are jelling.
