Picture my Week

     Can you believe I didn't get any pictures of our Thanksgiving Day?! I don't know why other than I was too busy enjoying our day.

    Here are a few of my favorites from our week.
   
    One of our neighbors dumped off their fall decoration pumpkins to the cows. They absolutely loved them.


 
When trying to dig out our Christmas tree from the back of the storage room I saw all of our German books were covered in green mold. Nothing else was. Strange! I brought them down and cleaned them and laid them out to make sure they dry properly before returning to the storage room. Steven was fascinated with the weird squiggly letters.

 
We got our Christmas trees set up. So far I haven't been able to decide which one I like the best. The lights on the one in the girl's room don't work, but I love all the homemade ornaments.

  1. I've put my pumps out for the critters too and trees aren't up yet, but probably will be by the end of the weekend! (We still have one more TG to do!) Happy week!

  2. The weird squiggly letters means, if I'm correct, that the books Steven is looking at have the old German script. We had a catechism at home with that script and I remember trying to decipher it when I was around his age.

  3. I would never have thought to give cows pumpkins. Used to when we were freezing corn, we saved all the green shucks and gave them to the cows. They sure enjoyed it. and I know they love apples. Just never thought about pumpkins.

    1. The cows get to enjoy a lot of our produce scraps, but I would never have thought that they'd enjoy pumpkins.

  4. The books must be leather bound. I have had that happen to shoes in the hall closet. Only leather ones liked the moldy decorations.
    Our humid summers are probably the instigatiors.
    Love the cows' enjoying a Thanksgiving meal too.

  5. the tree in the girl's room is lovely. I'd like something like that for my living room one day. As of now, we don't have a tree for the girls but we do have a wreath and garland. We will be making paper garlands to string around the house too.
