Hello Aunt Betty

After dropping off Eric at the airport so he could spend some of Thanksgiving in Denver, we drove south to visit Aunt Betty. How nice it is to be on the beach. Lola played and played in the sand with a shovel someone forgot. We also went into the little aquarium at the end of the Manhattan beach pier.

Happy Thanksgiving

What a treat to have share Thanksgiving with Friends and Family. Eric & Virgil had fun working in the kitchen. We made a menu for our Austrian neighbors who joined us. Lola liked having her date with their son. She fed him some bread. Oh how tasty Thanksgiving dinner is... YUM.

Spending some time in the kitchen

Homemade rolls from freshly ground wheat.. (take a deep breath of yeast bread.. oh nice:)Freshly made Foccasia bread, makes mouth water. Spinach artichoke dip with peperjack cheese on top- soo tasty, cranberry sauce- terrific on graham crackers and savory with turkey, pumpkin roll with cream cheese filling- yes please! Burbon pecan pie,,,oh so tasty!Of course the always satisfying sausage cheese balls- must for Prewitt family gatherings. And tomorrow, the turkey, dressing, sweet potatoes, green bean caserole.

Racing with Eric

Lola took Eric over to half priced games at Dave and Busters for some racing. She showed him how to play whack a mole and surfing. Fun times

Terrific Thursday- Pilgrims and Pies

Today we had the class at our place. We talked about pilgrims and the native Americans. We also had a great time making homemade apple pies from scratch, the crust too! We also made a cranberry relish that you don’t cook. Oh very tasty!

Park Playdate

It’s so fun that the girls play together with their own games. We had a good time at the park. There were a few lingering flowers that smelled wonderful. Lily already had her tree up and when we came home Lola started wondering when we are going to put up ours:)

Terrific Thursday-Native Americans and Turkeys

We wanted the children to know about how different parts of the country had different tribes and they all didn’t live in Tipi’s. We also talked about some of the food the pilgrims and the native Americans might have eaten, like turtles, nuts, and fish! We made headbands for a festive little party and ate a fruitful turkey for a snack.
