The day before the feast- part 1- the morning

This is out morning. I took pictures every 30 minutes from teh time we got up. And of course, the pictures are in reverse order 1:30 pm- filling up the car with gas. Bug likes to press the selector for the gas grade.

1 pm- lunch at Red Squirrel resturant. Momma needed a prescription filled so while we waited for the prescription, we ate grilled cheese sandwiches.

12:45- pies done 2 pumpkin and one apple pie. The house smells wonderful

12:30- football in the front yard. it is getting colder- definitely we will need warm stuff for this evening.

My little kicker

Apple pie waiting for the top crust to be added. We like monded apples- none of that flat apple pie stuff for this family.

Bug, cutting up the apples. He asked for a glove to keep heimself from cutting his fingers with his not so sharp plastic knife. he is a riot some days.

pumpkin pies in the oven to cook

My little helper.

Cleaning the living room floors. Yes, we stayed in our jammies until after 12 noon today.

10 am- the pie baking starts. This is the stuff ofr the pies. I decided that making pie crust from scratch was not a good thing this year, so we have pre-made pie crusts.

Bug putting his clothes away. Yes, I took one of those toy bin things and turned it into Bug's clothes area. he was having problems opening the drawers on the chest of drawer (dresser) so thsi works much better.

While Momma works on folding laundry. This is 2 loads folded at 9:30 am

9 am- Bug makes a road with the blanket on the couch and plays cars

Momma on her conference call at 8 am. Still in my jammies and thankfully you can't see my hair.

8 am and Bug is ready for breakfast. he wanted a candy bar (not happening) and got a cheese stick instead. he ate 3 cheese sticks (i offered him other things) and 2 glasses of blueberry juice

7:30 am- wake up. Momma has a conference call at 8 am, so Bug camps on the couch and watches Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

we'll be leaving the house again soon- to pick up Mam and Pap for an early dinner and then off to the zoo with Mam to hook up with T, Y, and M&M to see the lights. I think I will be ready for bed tonight - very early.

Love and hugs,

Deb
