My Thanksgiving

Lindsey · 10-13-2009, 12:05 PM

Here are some pictures from the weekend

On Saturday, my mom and I spent about an hour shoveling the driveway and chipping the ice off.... it's pretty steep and my car barely made it up! Of course, the next morning it was covered again

On Sunday we took a drive out to the cabin.

My mom has gotten all of the cabinet doors painted and put back up. It looks much darker in person than in the picture.

That wall covered in wallpaper? Well, now it's covered in paneling! It will be painted light blue with the other walls.

There was a ton of snow at the lake, even more than in town. In some spots it was about half a foot deep!

My dad bought a new wood stove. He needs to still attach the chimney.

I took some pictures from the drive home. Look at how many trees are still green!

My dad has put up most of the railing on our new deck and it looks way better than I expected it to

You can be an honorary mom as far as I'm concerned

Janet · 10-13-2009, 01:33 PM

Love the pics Lindsey and the flowers you got for your mom are so pretty. I just can't believe all that snow, it sure is pretty, but I hope we don't get any!

Lindsey · 10-13-2009, 01:41 PM

The snow is supposed to melt this weekend. The forecast says it will be about 15 C (59 F) on Saturday. That's good news because my motorcycle is covered in snow right now, and I need to get it across the city into Scott's friend's garage for the winter

Then it can snow all it wants!

Hi Lindsay, thanks so much for sharing your Thanksgiving pictures with us. But you didn't tell us what you had to EAT - the most important event at Thanksgiving

J/K - spending time with family is definitely most important!!!

Thanks so much for those pictures! I never see that much snow in Texas in 10 years!!! My 13 year old granddaughter has never seen that much snow - she's only seen the dustings we have in Texas!

I love the pix of the cabin and especially the pics of Layla!!! She is so adorable!

paula1961 · 10-13-2009, 03:20 PM

Great pics Lindsey! It is beautiful there!!! Layla is a DOLL!!!!!!!! Are the cabinets that you painted in the cabin metal? Yeah like Gayle asked... what did ya have for dinner?

Lindsey · 10-13-2009, 03:29 PM

Gayle, just wait until it's actually winter here, I'll show you what snow is REALLY like

The cabinets in the cabin are wood. My dad's friend actually made them

The house belonged to his grandparents. They were just stained a really light orangish color, and we wanted to go for a darker look.

And here's what we ate

... Turkey, stuffing, cooked turnips, mashed potatoes, homemade gravy, and sliced cucumbers. I didn't even have room in my tummy for pumpkin pie. About 10 minutes after we had finished eating my mom said "Oh! We forgot to eat cabbage rolls!" they were all pre-made and in the fridge lol. But I brought them home to eat here lol. There were only three of us there so it was more than enough food!

paula1961 · 10-13-2009, 03:46 PM

Sounds delicious Lindsey! I've never had cooked turnips for Thanksgiving but I do love them!! Your Thanksgiving dinner sounds amazing!! I always stuff myself. Glad you had a great Holiday

DianaB · 10-13-2009, 04:43 PM

Nice pictures, Lindsey!! Layla's quite photogenic!!!! The snow........brrrrr........I'm not ready for weather that cold!!! It sounds like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family!! Thanks so much for sharing it with us!!

Marilyn · 10-13-2009, 07:07 PM

Sounds like a really good holiday!!! Thanks for sharing the pics. I can't imagine having snow like that already. It was in the 80's this morning when I was driving to work.
