isn't it pie-day?

 

12 of the pies, Davian went home with two.  The lighter colored pumpkin is sugar free, for me.  The blueberry is Sonja's creation.  I make a messy pie, but I think they'll be tasty...as you can see, we already dug into one of the apple pies.  I promised Davian he could have some pie before going home, as he helped us today.  He brought an apple and a pumpkin home, and he loves apple pie so much...
As usual, I didn't take photos...but Carmen and Amanda, the girls' friends, came over too.
The apple pies...

Mmmm, pumpkin pies!

So I took a trip to the Apple Lady's today, then to Walmart, all by myself.  I got black olives for tomorrow, and one more can of whipped cream, some air fryer food (pizza pockets, mozzarella sticks, and mini corndogs) and a few Christmas presents.  

It was a busy day, but oh dear it flew by!  Sonja was such a blessing, she prepared the food in the air fryer, and served it with cucumber slice, and celery.   Okay, it wasn't a balanced dinner, but we were drowning in pies ha.

So my last blog post was disjointed, and incorrect.  The early days of being a mama WERE precious to me, I just didn't know yet how fast the time would fly by.  

Ah well, I'm yawning and the kids are watching a show I am not interested in (K-Drama anyone?  Yes, Korean dramas....ugh.)

It's nice to be invited to Ben and Ashley's house for dinner, they are so very hospitable, and their house feels so comfortable, like home.  I am super thankful for family...

  1. Yay for Davian's pies! He is a boy after my own heart. Growing up, it wasn't Thanksgiving without at least 6 pies on the sideboard. I was just looking at a picture from those days and I counted 9 pies. Although you've got us beat with 12! Wow!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. I'm sorry Sam & Co couldn't make it. Hopefully for Christmas...

  3. That's a lot of pie, almost a pie a person. Do you give them to take home or are they all gone by the evening?

  5. Joy, thank you, I hope you had a nice warm cozy day too!
    Marilyn, thank you!!!!
    Kristi, it IS a lot of pie!!! Too much pie! It was a blast though, to have so much. Emily is working in the ICU tomorrow, so she is bringing one nice apple pie for the nurses there. We put a dent in it...I had one small piece of the sugar free pumpkin, and just tastes of: blueberry and apple, and chocolate espresso...( Besides my 12 pies, Ashley made a cherry pie, and a chocolate pie, Mariel made a chocolate espresso pie and a chocolate peanut butter pie, and Abigail and Camille made a lemon meringue. So there weren't 12 pies, there were 17, ha.) I left some there for Ben and Ashley, and sent some home with our Norwegian friends...we have several left, but they will get eaten, shared with friends.
    Thank you Terri, I hope you had a good day too!
