Thanksgiving





































A New Park

We went to a park that just had a new playground put in- the girls enjoyed it.

This was something new- a big web to climb on.  They were both very brave!  

Out For a Walk

This is the miniature horse that lives just down the road.  He is very friendly and always comes to the fence to say hello!


Isaac took the girls out for a walk while I went for a little Christmas shopping!  Thanks honey!!

Dough of all kinds!!


We had a fun time trying out a new recipe for tortillas...I didn't catch it with the camera, but Esther's face lights up with a huge smile every time we bake together, and the recipe is really good!  (thanks, Grammie for the fun magazine!) Also, I just love how girlie she looks holding her hands in that way!!
Esther is improving at her "rolling out" abilities!  (and no, I don't have a rolling pin yet!)
Gracie loves to watch, and sneak bites of dough!  I have to watch her closely- at one point I found her trying to shove an entire ball of dough in her mouth!  We won't be using these with guests!
Time for playdough...Gracie would also eat this if I let her.  

Obama = White

Sooooo.... 





Obama is WHITE




All those people celebrating last tuesday that we have our first black president are wrong. Obama has a white mother and a black father. His mother raised him, and he has seen his father once in his life. So why do people choose to call him black when genetically he is only %50 black and %50 white? So I call him White because he is more than %50 white through his raising. 

One more thing... I don't care that Obama is white... and I don't care that the media has it wrong and is calling him Black. I am just sick of it being about race, and not about a qualified president elect.

Obama it is

This is me happy. 







I gotta say that all of the talk of race on the news is REALLY annoying. Yea Barak is black, yea it is a big deal considering the history of the USA. But you would think that it was the pigment in his skin that made him ready to run the country...I am judging just by the news coverage...
