Moving forward . . .


How would you like this staring at you every morning? Sean is ramping up to start work on building a chicken coop this Winter. Yes, that's right, the kids are going to learn to scoop chicken poop. If anyone has any design ideas, please feel free to submit them. Shannon just finished up both of her term papers. Yaaaaaayyyy! Thanksgiving was very mellow and very fun. We had turkey burgers and sweet potato french fries and a bunch of classic dishes. I'm still full. Max and Kaya are starting to get cabin fever already, and we haven't even reached Christmas yet. Speaking of Christmas, this one is going to be very scaled back, with a major emphasis on giving love and spending time with the family. Maybe this can be a template for all coming holidays!

Shannon needs Help


Do you prefer Turkey or Turkey?



Hi Everyone! We just wanted to let you all know that we are very thankful to have you in our lives. Does anyone have anything wild planned for the holidays? The Lynnsquad is probably going to lay low. We're making Sweet Potato fries to add to Grandma and Grandpa's Thanksgiving/Eli Birthday celebration. Shannon is thinking of making horseradish cranberry sauce. Any suggestions for fun food?
