Wow! What a day! I didn't know what to expect....
The Pioneer Woman - Ree Drummond - was at Mall of America (MOA) in MN on Saturday November 21, 2009 as part of her book tour promoting her new cookbook, The Pioneer Woman Cooks. Love her blog and love to try new recipies. When her book was available for preorder, I jumped on the bandwagon and ordered two - one for me and one as a Christmas gift for my good friend. Once I found out one of the stops for her book tour was Mall of America in Minnesota, I had that day marked on my calendar over a month in advance.

Thanksgiving....
With Thanksgiving coming up in, oh wait, it's NEXT WEEK! Where does the time go? Hubby is trying to get things ironed out for determining who will be at our house. Hard to do since my side of the family doesn't do well with giving much notice. Hopefully I will know by or during this weekend. Should be pretty drama free though, the way I like it.

Not ME Monday!
Welcome to Not ME Monday. This fun filled way of admitting our imperfections and living to tell about them was born from MckMama of My Charming Kids. Check out the standards we try to live up to!
Alas another week has come and gone. I most certainly did NOT allow my little girl to stay up all day long on Saturday with no nap to speak of. I absolutely did NOT try for two hours to get her to lay down only to have the afternoon waste away. We did however have a good cuddle time, but alas no nap. Surprisingly she wasn't that cranky in the evening. I still am not ready for her to be done with naps entirely.

New things...!
On Veteran's Day, My friend M came down to visit for the afternoon. We were planning on going to Applebee's for their veterans meal special, but alas there was a line out the door when we got there. That's what you get when you have a VA Hospital in town. Hubby thinks they were probably bussing veterans over there during the day. E decided to fall asleep before we got there. So after deciding to go elsewhere, she suggested a small adventure. Thought what the heck. Asked her what she had in mind.

Trick or Treat!
Pebbles - Cave Girl
Well we survived Halloween. J hung out with her friend A all day. They did come with us to the mall, but had to leave right away because A had to be home. Weird. J ended up spending the night at A's house (without parents mind you, big trust factor there).
I had a haircut that afternoon. E was dressed up in her costume, because we planned for her to trick or treat around the mall. Never did that before, but turned out really well for us. It was indoors, it wasn't raining, it wasn't cold. Fairly comfortable.
