Matt is all dressed and ready to go duck hunting! He and my cousins have gone several times and love it! There are a few places that they go that are under 10 minutes away. I love that he has found people up here that love to hunt just as much as he does. We now love to shoot clay pigeons from my parents driveway in Mt. Pleasant. Matt and I have yet to figure out how to get the dumb things to fly from the thrower. My brothers laugh at our attempts. :)
"Witches Night Out" At Gardner Village (a shopping center) they had a way fun weekend where everyone dressed as witches and they had drawings and a witches cackle contest...it was so much fun. This pic is of one of the sets that they set up with a little fence around. The figures moved and everything. FUN!! We also went trick-or-treating with my nephews. They were so cute. I made us costumes as mustard and ketchup.
Matt loves orange rolls on Thanksgiving and we couldn't go to his parents so I made them. That recipe takes a LONG time to complete, but they are WAY yummy! His family loves them right from the oven, and mine needs frosting. So funny how different families are.
THE PIE!! Between my dad and his brother (Ed) they love pie. The night before Thanksgiving we eat pie and play games. This happened to be the first to be cut and they can't hardly wait. Look at those faces! They are ready!
My mom makes the best pies, and tons of them. This year she probably made fewer than ever at 13. Some others brought more and we had a total of around 18 ish. YUMMMM! In the background is my moms beautiful new kitchen in Mt Pleasant! It is amazingly done. Beautiful cabinets, 2 ovens, dark granite, tile flooring...wonderful!
And...Patches! She is the cutest kitty. If there is a box or even a slightly open bag she is not only exploring around it, but in it. I tried to pick the bag up with her in it and she didn't like it so well.
Besides school and work that is about ll that has gone on.

We do the same thing the night before Thanksgiving! We call it Pie Night. Such a great idea, huh! Your pies all look delicious!
Sounds like fun! Where are the pics with you in your costumes!!
They are purposly left out. I made them...mustard and ketchup gone wrong :)
Grandma Tippetts always made a ton of pies. Your mom takes after her. We do the pie thing too, we just can't wait until after the turkey. You are right the house especially the kitchen is BEAUTIFUL!
