Beautiful day at the lake...

It felt like a normal day...Gary doing his normal mowing...

...that is mowing the leaves...this time of year.

Looks like another race in the books for Stacy and Addie...and dad joined in.

Meanwhile Connor had his own activity going on...

hard to believe one can ice skate in Florida
but
I can tell you it's COLD in that ring!
😲😲😱 

Roof finally finished...

it's been like living in a fishbowl
with all the workers
working
around

 Sometimes I catch a beautiful sunrise in town...

Spied this cool plant in Dom's next door neighbor's yard. The leaves are awesome...

New roof going on this week...

Yesterday was Connor's concert...yep,,,we missed that one as well,

Almost done with this audio book...

i have a movie star
crush on him
😁
it's the voice

I'm enjoying my nighty walks...

 It's beginning to look like Christmas in the town neighborhood...

Addie had her piano recital Monday...wish we could have been there...

we enjoyed the video Stacy sent
Addie did a great job!

My transmission arrived early so Devin is installing it. It should be ready for me tomorrow.

On that note...Devin is changing careers and his last day will be December 31.

so we are hiring
😎

I finally got smart and bought a silicone handle for my pots...

still burning myself
another Amazon purchase
😁

Just finished this audio book...it's a nice change from mystery or family drama novels,,,

it's a 
science fiction
apocalyptic
and post-apocalyptic
book
😱

this is definitely me
i count this as a
weightlifting workout
😂

You can always find some color at the lake...

Visited home Saturday...

afternoon photos aren't as pretty as
morning
or 
evening

The leaves are turning colors...

This mushroom looks like a white rose...

Connor set up these Christmas lights in my room at Dom's...beginning to feel like Christmas...

Publix had some nice and unusual flowers for 
Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving turned out to be a working two days for our older and younger kids...

As of last year when Addie did such a great job preparing the turkey...it was decided to make it a tradition...

she really does a great job rubbing the butter on the turkey
Stacy seasons it
🎊

...she also sets the table.

Meanwhile Connor did some yard work for Dom...

He harvested mom's lemons...

They are huge...hard to believe how big they are.

John also helped  He replaced all the hinges on the kitchen cabinets...

Stacy of course helped with the cooking and clean up.

She also taught Connor how to carve the turkey...

So...this will be his job from now on...I told him to look up some YouTube videos so next year we will have more slices...

I forgot to take a photo of the turkey...it turned out nice...this is Gary's plate.

Our working family😁

I made the pies...

gluten free pumpkin and pecan pies

John also has a continuing job of replacing rotten boards on our deck... he replaces a few boards every time he visits...

Another great Thanksgiving in the books.

On to the next holiday!
