More holiday-inspired pictures

As winter fast approaches, it is hard to get yourself motivated to have a "vivacious" shutter :)  This is just a quick post with a few pictures, but I will post something more substantial soon...I have fun things planned!

Anyway, this Thanksgiving we had the blessing of having some friends of ours stay at our house for a few days over the break week.  With lots of yummy food, chilly weather, and pumpkin pie, we had lots to be thankful for.  Here are some recent pictures of Thanksgiving and the snow that we have had...enjoy!

this picture sums up the feeling of winter, with the snow-capped barn and the cabin-style house 

snow + horses=cold chores

turkey!

during the week, we put together a 500 piece puzzle featuring the summer in Chicago

this is one of my favorite pictures.  CINNAMON ROLLS!  Making sweet rolls for both Christmas and Thanksgiving is a long-held tradition in our family

they were so good I had to include another picture :)

How was your Thanksgiving?  Is it snowing where you are?

Have you been taking good pictures lately or is your camera on Christmas break, too?  :)

May the Lord's blessing overflow your heart with happiness this advent season!
