Happy Holidays

So, another holiday has come and gone.

This Thanksgiving we hosted it at our new place. We invited our neighbors from downstairs (these are the same neighbors who helped us out before we had a car.) I decided I wanted to make all of the Thanksgiving food by myself and let me tell you, I will NEVER do it all by myself again. I was so exhausted by the end of the night that I could barely keep my eyes open. I did a Ham (no turkey for us as Daniel doesn't like it,) mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing (made from scratch), green bean casserole, rolls (made from scratch), deviled eggs and a cheese/sausage platter. I also made 2 pumpkin pecan pies (OMG, are these good. Thank you Cindy Holyoak for the recipe.) It was fun and like my sister always says, I love being the little homemaker; but I was a hard job. 

Now it's on to Christmas. We are hoping to be able to start shopping for Christmas presents here soon as it takes so long for the gifts to make it back to the states. 

Our baby is still growing and doing well. We go back and see the Dr for my next appointment on Dec 4. We have found out the sex but since a few family members still don't know, we are going to wait and say what it is.
