I'm a homeschooling mom of 2 great kids. I've been married to my wonderful husband since 1997. I love to crochet, knit, and digi scrap. So, you never know what I might post about!

So, I found out Sunday night that I'll be hosting Thanksgiving dinner! Nothing like short notice, huh? LOL This will be my first time hosting any holiday get together. It's not really a big deal, though. It's just going to be the people in my household, plus my parents and my brother-in-law. Oh, and my nephew who just turned 1 year old a week ago. So, the big thing is where everyone will sit. We can fit 5 people at our dining table, and there will be 5 adults. Hayley can fend for herself and eat in the living room, but I don't know what we're going to do about the babies. We don't have a high chair,'cause Nathan sits in my lap to eat most of the time. If we give him a bowl of turkey, we could have him eat in the living room, too, but I don't know about Logan. Ah, well, I guess we'll figure it out.
Well, we still don't have a puppy, but the possibility is still there. The lady has apparently been too busy to shoot off an email because her husband has been out of town. Not too busy to sell 2 of the puppies to other people, but too busy to get back to me within a week or two of me emailing her. Anyway, Buddy finally called them on Monday and left a message (too busy to answer the phone, too) and the husband called him back yesterday and they have 1 female puppy left (we want a female), so we're going to go out and have a look on Friday morning. I have a feeling we'll be bringing her home regardless, but I just hope she's what we're looking for.
Elaine has started Progressive Challenge 4 (I wonder how many of them I'll keep count of) over at GDS. The theme this time is, of course, Thanksgiving, or what you're thankful for. She's already posted the guidelines for Step 2, which is to use 3 photos. I've never taken pictures at Thanksgiving, but I guess my first time hosting would be a good time to take some! But I'll have to wait 'till Friday to finish this step of the challenge! Maybe Thursday night I can find some time to upload the pics and work on it. That reminds me that I need to take pics of the afghans that I need to sell and get them on ebay! Anyway, here's my first step of the PC.
The papers are from Jessica Alger's Indian Summer kit.
Well, that's all I've got for you today, so I'll leave you with this passage:
At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure. Luke 10:21
