November 30

I didn't have my camera out today. Instead, I chose the bucket and scrub brush. Not very exciting. LOL Today, I'm sharing a two-page layout that I did a little while back. It's one of my favorites. :) We toured the old jail in Jim Thorpe, PA.

November 29

Another "sneak peek"of our. I'm getting close! Just a few more finishing touches and then we're ready for the Christmas tree!

November 28

Just a sneek peek at some of the progress I made tonight. *sigh* It's (the platform) a lot harder than I thought it would be. I hope I can have the "big reveal" before Christmas. LOL *wink*

November 27

Our beautiful turkey centerpiece, given to us by my sister, Chrissy. I'm not sure if she made it herself or if she bought it? Isn't it just lovely? :) LOL (Ya gotta love her....no, really, I have to because she's my sister. *wink*)

November 26

Corey and Collin made turkeys at school today. Here is Corey's turkey:

And this WAS Collin's. He "gobbled" his right up!

November 25

A pic from yesterday. The cable man was here and pointed out this "little" hornet's nest to me. YIKES!!

November 24

This is what I'll be wearing to bed tonight. (And my pj's too! *wink*)

November 23

I'm sure I've shared my shower curtain before. I'm sharing it again because I'm so excited for my friend Sandi. In just under 2 weeks she will be travelling to Ethiopia ("eye level" from where I sit ;) ) to get her son. I am hoping (and praying) that it will be possible for me to meet Sandi, when they are on their way back home to AZ. (She will be about 4 hours from here!)

November 22

Collin doing the cub scout handshake at the November Pack meeting.
Today the boys earned their Bobcat Badge, their Tiger Totem, 2 Family beads, 2 Den beads, and 1 Go See It bead, and a Popcorn patch. They also were recognized for their participation in the Veteran's Day Parade and for Scouting for Food.

November 21

Since this is our first year with a platform (or "putz" if you are a Highland *wink*) we decided to get an early start. We've still got a long way to go (lights, wiring, finishing touches) and we are anxious to finish and enjoy. We are crossing our fingers that the cats will leave it alone.

This pic is for you, Ted. lol See why I posted a view of the back of the blue jay?

November 20

Did I ever tell you how much I enjoy birds? lol

November 19

We had a great time tonight with Casey Parker from Penn's Peak Radio (dot) com. We may have a few future DJ's here! They sang along to "Yellow Submarine" and it was soooo cute!

front: Corey, Collin, Jack

back: Michael, Casey Parker, Aiden, and John

November 18

I had to take a pic of the oil gauge today. In the 11 years that we are here, I don't recall ever seeing it this full! Praise God!

November 17

Brad refused to look at the camera and I asked Blake to smile. lol Brad and Blake have had a lot to talk about lately. They're always tying up the phone line!

November 16

It isn't often that I get to see the floor in the boys' room. I took this pic so that I can remember what it looks like. Memmy helped the boys get it cleaned up in there. Thanks Mem!

November 15

*Flashback* I randomly selected these pics for today. I just grabbed a cd and stuck it in. These pics were taken by me on March 9, 2006. You could say that Corey and Collin made a bit of a mess with baby powder! That's Corey smiling for the camera. I guess he thought it was funny?

November 14

I tried. LOL

Can you find the deer (a buck!) in this pic?

Here's my terrible attempt at outlinging it. Do you see it now?

I'll get him next time!

(Ted, you and Theodore have to stay away during deer season!)

November 13

Not the greatest pic and I'm sure Dennis won't like it.

Dennis is in the back seat of the constable's car and I am following.

(Sorry ladies.... he's taken.) *major eye roll*

November 12

*Not my pic*

Tonight Kenny Chesney won the CMA Entertainer of the Year Award!!

(For the 4th time!) Wooo Hooo!!

November 11

No pics today, but I have a layout to share in honor of Veteran's Day.

(I miss you Pappy Highland!)

November 10

This one's for Memmy!

Just 3 of her favorite boys. :)

November 9

Collin and Corey, my little Tiger Cubs, were in their 1st parade today (Veteran's Day Parade in Lansford, PA).

They really enjoyed parading and they even let me take their pics afterwards.

(We have to get them their neckerchief slides yet so their uniforms are complete. The slide is to hold the orange neckerchief and looks so much nicer than me trying to tie them. lol)

November 8

My two favorite Aunts came to visit today!
Aunt Betty and Aunt Linda (my mom's sisters). :)

November 7

Sorry, no pic today.

November 6

*Flashback*

Three years ago on this day, Dora and Skittles became a part of our family.

(It is Dora in the picture. She was so tiny!)

November 5

He did it!!

Trevor now has a driver's license! Congrats Trevor!

I knew you could do it!! (((HUGS)))

November 4

Trevor will practice parallel parking tomorrow morning/afternoon and then we'll go back up to Hazleton to try the test again. I'm hoping he gets his license tomorrow! (fingers crossed!)

November 3

Although taken by me, on Monday, November 3rd, this pic wasn't taken tonight.

I took this pic in 2005.

My camera didn't leave the bag today.

November 2

A Tisket, A Tasket

A Too big cat for such a small basket! LOL

Dora, of course. She'll make herself fit.

November 1

I'm not sure why it's hair is ruffled like that? This is our little vole friend that lives underneath our front steps. Dennis would like him dead, but I think he is really cute!!!

BTW, can you believe it's November already??? Where did the time go??? Yikes!
