November 13 through the 21

We are both so busy since we got home, I wonder how I had time to work such long days at the shop and do all the things we are taking all day to do now. Sharon loves to go to the shop and see the girls and the customers while Kent goes to Portland or the beach to do things or see his grandsons play ball. We schedule our doctor and dentist appointments for when we are home, as we get older, there seems to be more of them each year. LOL For years, Tress and I have baked frosted sugar cookies for her work, with me being gone in February we decided to make them in November while I was home. We made all sizes of heart cookies and made them pink the same as if it were Valentines day. It was fun and they flatter us by telling us we are the greatest cookie bakers ever. We also made cranberry oatmeal and chocolate ship cookies for Kent and my family. Bodie grew up in the kitchen baking with Nonnie in his high chair, so he is a big help and enjoys it so much, but now we have little sister Blaize who is 2 and she is a handful but wants to help also.
On the nineteenth we went shopping for the food for Thanksgiving breakfast and dinner.Kent had to go to the beach the next day to get a patio door installed and Sharon stayed home and practiced her skill at making Carmel Cinnamon rolls. That evening several of the kids showed up and we inhaled them. On the 21st, I made 4 more large pans of rolls for Thanksgiving breakfast the next morning. The girls always come over to help set the table for breakfast and we have coffee and sweets when we are done. We ate more than one pan of rolls. so I wound up making one more batch that night to be sure I had enough for breakfast and to send some home with everyone.(pictures)
