Playing catch up for the last month!

Can't believe it has been over a month since I last posted. Part of my problem is I sit at a computer 75% of my work day so sitting at a computer in the evening is not exactly high on my list. Give me a book or some yarn or a pillow and that makes a great evening.

I had hoped to get up to Portland to see Corey, Danica and Tabor (had a work meeting) but the passes were icky and we were pretty icy around here. Had to settle for calling into the meeting and looking at pictures of Tabor on my desk (and new ones on Danica's blog!) I plan to head their way for Christmas. Poor grandpasan has to work.

These are from the end of October when Tabor and I got to spend the day - just the two of us. Check out Danica's blog if you want to see anything current! Or to verify just how cute this little guy really is!

Fast forward to Thanksgiving!!
During the past month winter came upon us with a vengence. Of course Dave and Sandra and I headed over to Idaho to see Kevin and Shauna when it was the coldest. Hit Burley in the single digits and left Burley in howling wind, blowing snow across the road. But Dave is an intrepid driver and the whole trip was great! Had a wonderful time!

For those of you have been to Sandra's blog some of these Thanksgiving at Kevin and Shauna's will be repetitious and BORING.

We all took a turn or two at the lefse - a real learning curve here!

Shauna had this great plan - making snazzy watches for Sandra's birthday!

It was a bit overwhelming at first - mixing, matching, stringing, un-stringing.... until wah-lah, finished watches!

Pasta lessons from a 'lil ol' lady from Bend whose been to Italy once! Very authentic!?

Ready for the boiling water

Scout just before she does her nodding, head bobbing, dozing off move. Sorry Bella, didn't get any pictures of you but so glad you and Scout decided to get along. And I really did enjoy having you as a lap blanket dog on the long ride home.


For those of you who have made it this far.... I have a vague recollection of another reason why I don't post very often.... I have uploaded several pictures several times as I accidently delete while trying to fix fonts, alignment - where oh where is the re-do/un-do button? If you know of one let me in on the secret, please! Until next year?!
