Thanksgiving is coming!!!!

I'm so excited for Thanksgiving next week. It's my favorite non-religious holiday. Mostly because I love all the food of Thanksgiving, especially fried turkey! I can't wait until Aaron and I can host Thanksgiving in our future house. But, I will still be cooking this Thanksgiving. I am going to try a twist on two of my favorite desserts, it's Pecan Pumpkin Pie.






I hope it stays cold for Thanksgiving, it's finally starting to feel like the fall and Christmas coming. Aaron is planning on putting up the tree and start decorating tomorrow. We will see how that goes!
Countdown to Thanksgiving - 5 more days!!!!




Fall is my favorite season, enjoy some pictures from our Fall Wedding on Oct. 3rd, 09. Aaron and I handmade all of the mason jars of jam, jellies and other items.

Birthdays and Dogs Love

So today is one of my last birthdays before birthdays no longer exist. I have had a really great day so far. I went with co-workers, clients and my step mom to a luncheon where John Grogan the writer of "Marley & Me" spook about his books and Marley his hyper and now famous Lab. He was a wonderful speaker and a really neat guy. His speech really made me think about dogs and how much we fall in love with them. It is amazing how much dogs can become a part of our life and become so special to us. Dog spelled backwards is God. I think dogs really show us Gods love, they have unconditional love for us and are always there for us when we need them. Which brings me to my little chunky monkey. Abby has been in my life for so long, I can't imagine life without her.
