November 2011

Don't quite remember what happened in November of this year! Jeremy was in Guatemala for the first part of it and the kids and I just kept busy with the normal every day activities. When Jeremy returned we enjoyed family time together and many fun stories about Guatemala. Then came Thanksgiving with family time and good food! And of course black friday shopping - Christmas purchases were made and lines were waited in  - we scored on a new washer and dryer for half price and we even got them in bright red - so much fun to do laundry now! It was a fun month that went way too fast!

Books read

The Hobbit - In anticipation of the movie coming out in December 2012. If I was going to choose to be a fanatic about any movie series it would without a doubt be "The Lord of the Rings".

New Recipes tried - Peppermint popcorn (a new fav)

So easy - 2 bags microwave popcorn, 4 cubes of melted almond bark and about 6 or 7 crushed candycanes. sprinkle crushed candycanes over popcorn, then pour melted almond bark over popcorn and stir. Set out on tinfoil to harden (doesn't take long) and enjoy!!! Sooooo Yummmmy!

Apparently didn't take many pictures during November - bummer!

Guatemala

Wish I could have accompanied Jeremy on this mission trip. It sounded like they touched many lives, had many fun experiences and enjoyed meeting new people.

Happy Thanksgiving
