Tuesday before Christmas and down on the Lane.....
Today is busy busy here on the Lane.
Nan and Mom have gone to do some last minute shopping while I slave here at home still on the baking spree. Ok, so maybe I didn't "slave" all morning. I have got some accomplished.
More truffles, this afternoon I plan to whip up some homemade caramel corn, yummy!!
I went this morning for a little pampering, getting my hair and eyebrows done.
I met up and had lunch with my bestie.
Barry is delivering mail, Keith is working.
Dave is in cleaning mode and decided on this cool day he would clean out the shed.
Josh is waiting on the arrival of Aunt Barb. Hopefully today she could make it out.
They were lucky and LOTS of snow.
Hope you all are well on your way to Christmas as well.
Are you ready yet??

Happy Thanksgiving!!
The movement and rambling through the house has already started on Petticoat Lane.
We are up mixing, cooking, baking and preparing for the Thanksgiving Feast.
We are Thankful for another year around the table with family and friends.
We wish all our family could be here with us and they are, at least in our hearts.
Phone calls across the country will start soon to loved ones to see how they are progressing today,
to tell them how much we love them, are blessed by them and wish we were all together.
We love you all and hope you have a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving!!
Love & Prayers from Petticoat Lane

Fall Break just in time for surgery!
Wow! This week has gone by fast, Mom's surgery was Tuesday and it was a great success. The good Lord saw to it that she didn't have any pain and she was looked after by Sister in law Barb. It was Barb to the rescue, and to enjoy family time and food. Mom, Barb and I cooked Friday, WOW another meal in the kitchen of Aunt Maxine. Turkey and the works. Hunter also had a birthday party and enjoyed it greatly. Barb has gone home and Dave has returned from Okla. on business and Keith is back from Davidson, NC. Barry and I enjoyed Court Days in Flemingsburg today, short and sweet. Next weekend it will be court days in Mt. Sterling. Well it's back to the grindstone tomorrow. Thank You Jesus!

My Birthday At Nannies
The 10Th was my 52Nd birthday and Mom said to make no plans because she was cooking for me (and by the looks of the table when she was complete an army also). So all of you that have sat at my mom's table before you know you missed quite a meal. Fried chicken, corn on the cob,gravy,green beans, salad, tomatoes, deviled eggs, 
are you hungry yet. So you see the list goes on. Dave had to work late and so did Keith, sorry about your luck boys, there is always the microwave. I had a wonderful birthday! I enjoyed spending time with my family. They are what makes my world go around. Barry even bought me flowers (2 beautiful mums).
