Thanksgiving Eve Eve

Well,
Since it has been so long since I posted here, I will post.
I have not have blog posts rumbling around in my head like
I have in the past, but I will write, a ver if something comes to me.

We are going to the beach cottage tomorrow for our
Thanksgiving celebration.
I am going with the children and my Mama and Daddy will be there.
Andy will come after he sleeps off his work on Thursday.

My sister will come on Friday.
We are not cooking a gigantic Thanksgiving meal.
We are going to eat at the Thai Room restaurant that
is in a strip mall right near our cottage.
The restaurant will not be open on Thanksgiving day, so
no big meal that day.
My mama did make Elena a pumpkin pie with whipped cream
on top, because Elena loves that pie and she talks about it
all year long.

Thai food should be yummy!
The lady there loves my Mama and she is
excited to meet our family.

My Dad and I are going to see Lincoln.  I think that will be fun.
I have gotten so I really like to go to the theater to
see movies.
You are trapped in the seat...
No craving doing other stuff, and
you paid.

I will also go to TJMaxx.  That is one of my favorite places....
maybe on the whole planet??
Quality stuff in a scavenger hunt...hidden,
and a bargain too!
Fill a cart, and ponder...
Last time I was there I found
Lavendar soda!  I {almost} bought it, but then
I put it back and then sent my Mama back in to get it, and
it was all gone!
Buy the good stuff you find, lest it leave you!

I am also going to Van Huesen and buying myself a
white blouse b/c I {want} one, and that is an outlet, and
it will be a bargain.

So there,
A Thanksgiving post for ya!--ay que boring!!
Good lord!
I hope that all of my blog readers (all six of you)
have a Happy Thanksgiving!!

Just because I figured this out...{maybe}

Yay! Yay! Yay!
I sure hope this works.  Since my cousin took this video it has been worrying me.  I guess I am sort of a dinosaur with some technological advances, and I have this idea that my stuff is {stuck} in certain places...it does not matter which place, but the stuff might be {stuck} there.  For example, some things I cannot upload to Walgreen's--this bugs me if I want to put it on a calendar.  Or, somethings are stuck in facebook...
or in a folder in an unknown spot on my computer...
Dinosaur...
But then, sometimes when there is an extra hour--I have a chance to figure the stuff out...
and at least I can still do that!
I mean we were talking about typing class today-Elena is learning to type in second grade, and
we were explaining that we took typing in highschool..and we used word processors!! ha!  type
writers!!-they do have a frame of reference for this b/c my Mama still uses an old timey type writer.
If they go near it she goes nuts..ha ha!!
Did you know that they no longer teach cursive writing in many schools?  That's right..and if one does not learn to write it, will one be able to read it??? {very interesting}...one day some linguistics nerd
will spend time trying to decipher all of this script we have been jotting down for millienia...
nah..I bet a robot will do it faster.

So check out my technological breakthrough, bloggy buddies...I unstoled my foto from f-book and put it wherever I wanted it. ;)

Spa night

This is something we only do about three times a year...
I am sure you can see why...
The foot bath blows bubbles when you put the foot sprinkles in it.
So fun{ny}!
All the kids love scooping up the bubbles and having a turn to soak their feet. Eva is scared of the foot tub, as it is a bit noisy.
Fun! Fun! Fun!

Spot on!

Spot is our family's chihuahua.  He is what we call, "an evil dictator/stuffed animal come to life".  Sometimes, after he has ...
