happy thanksgiving

happy thanksgiving to all of my american friends and family.

i'm feeling a little bummed about not being able to be with family this holiday. we are going to try to have a dinner up here maybe i will invite some friends over and it will be nice. but i'm not buying a turkey now they are way too spendy. it was like 50 bucks just for one and it wasn't even that big of a turkey. they just aren't on sale this time of year up here i should have bought one in october and kept it in the freezer. oh well i quess that i will know for next year. the kids have the day after off of school but i think that we will just have an evening dinner i don't think that i have ever had a thanksgiving day dinner past 2:00pm it makes it seem more like a fancy dinner but you can't have one of those with kids running around. i have got a ton of christmas projects done and i'm hoping to have the rest finished by the first of december so that we can decorate the house. i already started to put up some things. the camera is dead right now but as soon as i can get it charged up today i'll try to remember to take pictures of my favorite christmas decoration that i made this year. more later

just checking in

we finally got snow this weekend but it isn't staying around for long and we didn't get a whole bunch of it. it is really funny because this year we are actually looking forward to the snow. we got the yard all cleaned on saturday just in time for the snow. we made through halloween with some nice weather and now we are ready for the snow so it can start to feel wintery and more like christmas. although i've never really grown up with snow for christmas. it much be all of the movies and tv shows that show that snow and christmas go together. i noticed yesterday in the store that they are already playing christmas music while you shop. now i love christmas music but it does seem a little bit early. then again maybe not we do have less than 60 days for christmas. need to get all of my christmas stuff done better start working faster and stop playing on the computer so much. so if i am even worse at blogging than i already am don't worry i haven't disappeared just busy with the christmas stuff. i try though to update as often as i can remember.

halloween costumes

here are halloween pictures
Hy was a character from an anime show that he watches. i think that his name miruko or something like that.



















kay was of course the corpse bride. i think that her costume turned out pretty good everyone really liked it and she didn't have to tell anyone what she was so that has to tell you that we did a good job on it right.


















here is the only picture i got of jeh because he decided that he was going to take off that night and wasn't around to get a picture of him later. it is a bit blurry because he wouldn't hold still long enough for me to take this picture.
this is a picture of my friends family they obviously went with the wizard of oz theme this year last year they did shrek. thought that they were really fun.
