Thanksgiving dinner:
John's birthday pumpkin pie:
John picked suspiciously at his pie and whipped cream and did not eat any. Are any of us surprised?
John loved the book and three balls he received!
Katherine's Current Reading: I just finished The Children's Blizzard by David Laskin (2004), which I enjoyed on so many levels: the genealogical research, the history, the meteorology explained, and stories of the American prairie, from which my mother's family hales. Reading about the immigrant experience and the blizzard of January 12, 1888, will give you a nice vaccination against self-pitying at least for a day or two!
Now I have begun The Diary of a Country Priest by Georges Bernanos (1937).
I just love the look John is giving his Grandpa Neil while everyone sings to him.
ReplyDeleteThat picture of you and John in his ERGO with your aunt is lovely. Did you know that it's a full size image when you click on it? How did you manage to do that? Usually Blogger re-sizes my images and they stay that size even when someone reading my blog double clicks on them. You look great by the way! I can't thank you enough for recommending the ERGO. I'm loving it. I just blogged about how much I love it :-)
ReplyDeleteRebecca: Yes, there is a trick. If you load a photo to Blogger and leave it where it is, then it should remain the full size when double-clicked. However, if you load a photo and then drag and drop it somewhere because you wanted it moved, it loses its ability to become full size. This requires some planning ahead when you post, especially if you post more than five photos (the max you can upload at one time). If you want to post 10 photos, first load photos #6-10, then load photos #1-5, which will appear at the beginning of the blog. So, load photos first in the order you want, then type among them. Does that make sense?
