My daughter made a turkey at school.

We got the games moved downstairs today.  I had to wait until he was done to see how to label this picture.  It became: How my foyer floor got gouges in it.  But, there's more room in the garage now.

This is some of our paints for painting miniatures.

My husband has been running electric in the basement for the arcade machines.  They need to be moved out of the garage so we can get a car or two in there this winter.

We took some family photos for Thanksgiving today.  Luckily the weather was nice so we could take them outside.

I got some photo lights for pretty cheap.  They aren't as bright as I'd like, but will work very well for some non-animate pictures I take.  They'll reduce shadows a bit for portraits too, but think I'll still have to use my large flash light as well.

It's the time of year for lots of packages to start arriving.

My daughter brought home a self portrait from school.

He stayed up until 3 A.M. putting the crane together.  It's pretty big, and has a motor.

We secretly ordered what he wanted for his birthday.  He was surprised to get it today, as we told him he had to save his birthday money to get it since it was expensive.

This is a votive holder I ordered from one of the kids' school sales one year.

My son helped with the school's emblem by creating the plan in the computer.

The kids finished stacking the wood today.

We worked on firewood today.  We got the slab wood sawed, and all but the last load stacked near the house.  It gets dark early now, making it hard to finish outdoor projects.

My husband shuffled stuff around today.  The Galaxie is now in the corner under the steps, and the camper is in the barn too.

We got some snow today.  It didn't stick or last long though.

You can tell it's getting colder by how curled up the cat is when she sleeps.

November 11, 2015

I dug this little maple up from the woods. 

November 10, 2015

I finished my little quilt.  Now to figure out how and where to hang it.

We saw these planes flying by a few times.  I think their formation looked better the third (last) time I saw them. 

November 8, 2015

The pretty part of fall is pretty much over.

November 7, 2015

We went on a little road trip today.  The sunset was pretty on the way back.

Missing: Thanksgiving
Christmas stuff starts showing up in stores earlier every year, and there seems to be less Thanksgiving items.  Here it is, early November, and on one side of the aisle is clearance Halloween, and on the other side is Christmas.  More stores are staying open on the holiday, making Thanksgiving just a speed bump on the way to Christmas.

My daughter got comfy while reading her homework.

There was a lot of dew this morning.  The sun made the drops on spider webs and the dandelions glow.

My son is a senior, so I've been taking some photos of him for his senior picture.
