Happy Thanksgiving Weekend! 

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. This year we are having three meals. Yesterday on Thanksgiving, we had Ds kids, and the grand baby over for a traditional Thanksgiving meal. 

I only took video of my table setting, so this is a screenshot of some of it. I used a lot of my Dollar Tree Thanksgiving decor from past years, which turned out so pretty. The meal turned out really well, and it was such a good day hanging out with the kids and grand baby. 

I am decorating our house in a gingerbread bakery theme for Christmas this year.  I decided to make little one her very own gingerbread playhouse.  She loves it! I wallpapered the inside with gingerbread wrapping paper, and I used a roll of brown kraft paper on the outside. I made the lollipops, and everything else is from Dollar Tree. The only thing that wasn't from Dollar Tree is the gingerbread face paper plate which I got from Walmart.  

Tonight we had our second traditional meal.  I made our leftover Thanksgiving Turkey Pizza. We love this pizza so much. I have to admit I look forward to it just as much as Thanksgiving dinner. It is really easy to make, and disappears very quickly at our house.  

On Saturday we will be watching the Ohio State- Michigan game.  While I consider myself a dual citizen of both states since I lived in both for many years, I am 100% Buckeye when it comes to colleges.  I am a 2nd generation Ohio State alumni.  I am hoping for a good outcome this year.. Go Bucks! 

 

Sunday we will be celebrating Thanksgiving with some more relatives, which will be our third special meal of the weekend. We may be turkeyed out by the time the weekend is over, but it is worth it.  

Now that you know what I have been up to this week, I want to see what you have been up to.  Link up and HAVE FUN!

Happy almost Thanksgiving Week! 

I don't know where November went, but it's hard to believe that Thanksgiving is less than a week away.  I have to admit I'm guilty of Thankmas.  I am already in Christmas mode, and have been planning many Christmas projects. A few of those projects I hope to do this weekend. We will have decent weather tomorrow, so we are going to set up the outdoor decorations. I am also going to make a gingerbread playhouse for my grand baby out of a large box. My theme is gingerbread and sweet treats again this year, so her playhouse will fit right in. We saw a premade cardboard house for $50 recently and decided it will be more fun and less expensive to make it at home. 

One of our favorite traditions at Thanksgiving is Leftover Thanksgiving Pizza.I make it every year and disappears quickly. I am getting hungry just thinking about it. :)  

If you are looking for a fun snack this Thanksgiving, I am resharing another family favorite Turkey Sandwich Snacks. They are cute, colorful, and healthy too. 

If you are looking for some fun Thanksgiving crafts, you may like my post Thanksgiving Turkey Crafts. It's a round up of easy turkey crafts that I have made in the past like these napkin rings made from a paper towel roll.  

It is time to get this party started. I would love to see what you have been up to this week.  Link up and HAVE FUN!

Happy Friday! 

Were you able to see the Northern lights this week?  We were about to see some in southern Ohio. They were visible a bit by the naked eye, but looked even better on the phone. 

I did not mention this at last week's party, but I did something very exciting last weekend.  Can you tell who we saw in concert?  If you guessed the Jonas Brothers, you would be right! I have liked their music for years, and was very excited to see them in concert in Columbus.  At the concert we found out that they were also releasing a Christmas movie this weekend on the Disney Channel today. (11/14) I already watched it, and will definitely watch it again. If you love silly, fun, Christmas movies with good music you will want to see it. 

I am adding this picture just for fun. I get my dog's a Bark bag every month. When it arrives I have my dogs pose with the bag before we open it. Occasionally I get a big smile from my golden, but usually she has such a serious expression.  Once I open the bag for her treats and toys she has trouble containing her excitement. Do you have dogs that are silly like mine? 

Well it is getting to be that time, so let's get his party started.  Link up and HAVE FUN!!

Happy Halloween!! 

We just got home from the Halloween dance with our friends. D and I are were also born right around Halloween, so we also celebrated our birthdays at the dance. 

Did you guess what my costume was going to be from my clue last week. Yes, I was Glinda from the movie Wicked. I love that movie, and I am really looking forward to Wicked for Good coming out in a few weeks.   Earlier this week we went to  pumpkin glow, and saw these really good Glinda and Elphaba pumpkins. 

I'm a little said that Halloween season is over, but also excited that it is unofficially Christmas season.  I am going to be making some new DIYs in a sweets/gingerbread theme.  I am also going to be using a new Christmas tree that I bought last year which I will probably start decorating in a couple of weeks.  

Well it is really late, so I am going to get this party started.  I would love to see what you have been up to this week.  Link up and HAVE FUN!
