Two Thanksgivings

We kicked off Thanksgiving on Tuesday with Dave and Gayle. Dave deep fried the turkey, and it was probably the best turkey I've ever had. Everything else was good too, particularly the pecan pie and tea of good tidings to kick off the holiday season.


The following day we met up with my family for our turkey trot. The race was virtual this year, not as exciting but we still had fun.

We planned a group photo on Thanksgiving day and took advantage of the opportunity for a photo shoot.

 We finished off the celebration with another delicious dinner and more pie.

Dessert Week


My dessert week bake was cheesecake, yum!


 I also tried another (almost) no knead bread recipe with much better success.

Yardwork Fun

 


Even with the cold weather, Mary loves spending time outside whether she's collecting rainwater in her loaf pan or helping me rake leaves.

Nine Months


Our little boy keeps growing and changing; he is nine months old now.


He's talking more and more and makes all kinds of interesting sounds including lots of little roars like a baby dinosaur.

No more belly crawling for David. He crawls on his hands and knees all the time now and is fast. This might sound like a difficulty, but it's actually been really nice as he learned to crawl. He loves the freedom it gives him and is generally happier hanging out on his own or checking out what other people are doing.


He also likes to rock, either forward and backward on his hands and knees or up and down when he's standing.


He loves looking out the back door, especially when Mary is on the other side.




David wants to be part of whatever is happening around him.



He is so much fun and makes us laugh often.
