Can a day be both lazy and busy, you ask? Of course it can. It is lazy when you spend the day at home (our favorite) enjoying the sunshine and the smells of baking and the all the Thanksgiving preparations (crafts, reading, cooking). It is at the same time busy when you are doing laundry, checking the crockpot, doing school, reading and crafting and baking. It has been a lovely day! Just the right amount of lazy and just the right amount of busy.
Today the kids spent a little time adding handprints to their Thankfulness Tree in the front hall. They spent a little more time creating feathered turkey pictures.
Later, after lunch and playing in the sunny backyard, Jacob spent a good while creating the knight/crusader battle picture you see. Nicole colored alongside him - some of her best original creations to date.
As for me, I tended the roast in the crockpot, made pumpkin bread, did laundry, cleaned a bathroom (oh, boy), and made a buttermilk pie. We are going to a Thanksgiving Vigil Mass at Church and then we are going to attend the 3rd annual Pie Sharing get together afterwards in the Hall. I am looking forward to that. Hopefully there will be a nice turnout. What's better? Pie and people after Mass.
Enjoy the rest of your day!
