Thanksgiving Week - And Apple Pie!

I worked Monday and Tuesday, but was thankful to be off on Wednesday. Just catching up on the week. Ford caught a cold, but so far we have not had it (yet)! Saturday was AA's tournament and I baked an apple pie for Ford - from Maine apples, a gift from my Mom for his birthday. AA also rode her bike after school last week, but we need a larger/adult helmet. She's growing up!

Yummy!! We ate apple pie for breakfast too - until it was gone!
Apple peeler (gift many years ago from Charlotte):
Ford's 1987 Harley turned 30 years old!
Christopher's birthday was celebrated on Sunday in Maine:
The Stone family!
Sunday, AA went to PGA Team practice, then in early evening I had the fire-pit roaring, great for toasting marshmallows - 57 degrees outside!
Monday - No School!! AA played 18 holes with Penny at Hidden Hills. A very hard course, it is on her list of goals to play several times before the U.S. Kids Worlds 2018.
Monday evening was the Eagle Harbor PGA Junior Team Banquet. I arrived just in time for the dinner. AA's all boys team is very good, but hard for her to break into the friendship cliques - boys are just not thinking of being inclusive with the only girl, sadness sometimes sets in as she loves playing with the boys, but at this age, just doesn't always happen.
Ford practiced making his yeast rolls ("Parker House") for Thanksgiving.
Wednesday, after cleaning house, Ford making his banana pudding and yeast rolls; Nana Joy arrived. We had a lazy afternoon (we are all tired!!), then went to the River House for a pizza dinner and music. We had fun trying to find Thanksgiving Day songs.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and we are thankful that Nicole and Jordan are hosting again! We will miss seeing the Cruce's - Leaa and Jesse and family are in Connecticut while Marsha and Carl are hosting Katie and Barrett and family at their place.
