A week gone by, and Day 3 creativily...

I can't believe Thanksgiving is already a week past! The worst part about December, perhaps... That it's magic goes too quickly...


Well, the Christmas holiday is in full swing around Chez' Wagner- and I refuse to complain about how much I'm not accomplishing, (ehem) or how backed up my laundry is. (note I said I won't complain. Chw, he is another story all together...)

In typical Misty does everything really, really late in '08 fashion, here are a few random snapshots of our Turkey day elements... (note the lack of people in the photos. Sorry... It really was that sort of day.)
A tree limb, with our guests "thankful for" items, each penned on them... There were some super creative people around our table this year. (Tightly squished around our table, I might add) I simply wrote "That my mom's health allows her to still be here" on mine. I truly am grateful for that...


Our table. If you squint really hard, you can see Bekah and Kent at the other end. That's all I've got for people pics. I'm sorry... the regret is deep.

Pumpkin roll... Mmmm... This Thanksgiving we started referring to it as "vitamins"... YUM!


My latest of cheesecake creations: Pumpkin and ginger with a gingerbread/hazelnut crust. MEGA YUM!

And then, here's the bulk of our tiny house's Christmas decor... But first, a lovely smiling photo of a certain little girl who is EAGER to decorate:
and lastly, because i really loved the branch and wanted to keep it longer...


And now, the moment you've all been waiting for:

Day 3 Advent: Lunch and games at the Great Harvest bread company...
Day 3 Creativily: Embroidery... I have no photos though, but she'll be doing it later today so I'll steal some! I was just so busy with MY list. :)
