Thanksgiving Week!

Wow, what a whirlwind week. We had a great time in Marion for Thanksgiving after going into the mountains to get our tree on Wednesday. Leaves plenty of time to enjoy Thanksgiving Day without being so rushed. We came home on Friday to finish decorating, worked at the church's tree lot on Saturday, and VOILA...bought a new puppy in a spur of the moment, heart-tugging, buy-me-please situation on Saturday afternoon. Dasher was in no danger, mind you....he just really wanted to come live with us. Following are some shots of the entire week. There's a bunch.Thanksgiving Day........Thomas picked these for me behind Mom's barn.

Ready for the feast.

Modeling just a little...And some more....

Friday brought tree decorating and unpacking. On Saturday, we worked the tree lot as a family, bought a puppy, and I visited Cotton at his gallery.


We had very little traffic at the Tree Lot (at church), so Thomas decided to make sure he could 'operate' the tree thingy..what's it called? And yep, he could do it!Cotton and his new book he wrote (and my name is in the back)!!! HEHE! Ya'll want his autograph...or do you want mine?!Meet Dasher, the newest member of our family. He's such a sweet boy...8 weeks old and fat as a pig. We purchased him on a whim yesterday and he's already made his way deep into our hearts. Macy loves him and is very maternal towards him. Now she has a playmate!!It just wears him out to be happy all day long!!!

Your blog is such a delight to read - just plain heartwarming. You're still an animal lover and this deal with buying a new puppy on a whim reminds me of the many times when you were little and I had to pull you away from "any" puppy you met.

I still plan to beat you for putting another picture of me on the blog! But, I love you.
