Big Pot in the Little Pot

It almost Turkey Day. Nessa, Chris and the kiddos will be here sometime tomorrow evening. We are so excited we can hardly stand it. I'm trying to get all of my laundry and house cleaning done today and tomorrow. I want to be able to enjoy the visit. Emily and I are gonna start baking and cooking tomorrow. I have to work 1\2 a day. That's Okay. We are gonna make orange fluff, 2 pecan pies, 2 pumpkin pies for Thanksgiving dinner. Then we are gonna make sausage rolls for breakfast. They are the best.
Ingredients:
1 pkg of mild sausage
1 pkg of hot sausage
2 cans crescent rolls

Mix 1 pkg of hot and 1pkg. of mild room temp. sausage together
Roll out crescent rolls
Spread thin layer of sausage onto crescent roll
Roll into tube
Wrap in cellophane and then tin foil
Freeze

To cook :
Follow directions on crescent wrapper.
(the reason you use a thin layer of sausage is so it will still cook the sausage and not burn the crescent)
Serve w\eggs and you have a nice hot easy breakfast.
You can also use them as appetizers.

I could eat them on a daily basis. Hopefully Chris won't read the ingredients on the sausage package. (I'll make sure it's long gone)

Cate is sleeping thru the night again,finally..... but now Emily was up late last night . She is having growing pains. Her joints hurt in her arms, hands and legs. She was in tears. The only thing we can do is alternate Tylenol and IBU and use hot pads. I laid w\her in her bed until 1 a.m. She was crying in her sleep. You feel so helpless. She did this last year and grew 4 in. in 5 months. I wish she would grow a little at a time not all at once.

No Deer today

Emily and Daddy went deer hunting this morning. It was so cold Neal;s glove froze to the scope when he was carrying it. Emily was a popcicle. She said her feet were frozen. They both looked so cute when they left. In their camo and bright orange boggins. Sad to say there will be no deer jerky made from this trip. They will go back again in a couple of weekends.

No deer but we did loose a tooth. Emily lost her 3rd tooth. The 2nd in two weeks. So she is singing "All I want for Christmans is my 2 front teeth." It sounds so cute with the lisp.

My little ham.We were on our way to meet Ninnie. Ninnie and Emily had a date. They ate lunch and then went to see HighSchool Musical 3. They both really liked it. I;m sure we will have to add it to our DVD collection.

Broken Spell

As soon as the flash went off the spell was broken. . But her piggies rescued her as always. Cate loves her little piggies.

Daddy Time

Isn't it beautiful when you see a moment that you know will be a memory for years to come. Emily had gone to bed and Neal, Cate and I were up watching T.V. I was into the movie when I look over and see Neal talking about Santa to Cate. She was so intent on his face and what he was saying. It makes you wonder if they actually do understand.

Momma's Little Helper

Emily has become my right hand man (girl). I don't kow what I'd do w\out her. She is still a typical almost 8 year old but she helps me alot. The other night I was so busy doing laundry, finishing dinner, and checking homework that I fussed at Cate for fussin. Emily picked Cate up, put her in the highchair and started to feed her. I didn't realize what Emily had done because I was in the laundry room. I came out because Cate stopped fussin'. That's is when I saw this. Emily was so proud of herself for helping me.To tell you the truth, I was too. As you can see by the picture I hadn't finished dishes. Not too sure who ended up having more food on them, Emily or Cate.
