The words for November are...


Seasonal View
A beautiful fall October evening. This was taken during one of my walks.

Oops
Man, I hate it when this happens! Drinking and flying is obviously not a good combo either.

Seashore
These were taken at Koki Beach at the Hamoa Village in Hawaii. We were travelling on the road to Hana and stopped here for the boys to go swimming. 
That little island is Alau Island, it's off the Maui coast and we could see it from Koki Beach.

Card
I stitched this card, but decided to keep it to display because I thought it was too cute to give away!

Stripe/d
One of them have stripes! These are our Gmen, just before Halloween after moving into our house over 21 years ago.
Such a cutie little bee and dinosaur!

My Own Choice
Having fun with my Momma. OMGoodness, so much laughter last weekend! I thought my Dad was going to pee his pants he was laughing so hard!

Another fun month, now I need to see what the others have posted. See you in January!

Friday's Stitching Ground 🛋

Well Thanksgiving threw me for a loop, I forgot yesterday was Friday, although I did stitch! No Jack Ryan last night, just stitching with the kitties while watching Warehouse 13, a series I found on Amazon Prime. Sort of like a version of X-Files.

I'm almost finished with Santa Visits Maryland. I just need to add the white to his hat and make his eyes blue instead of green as suggested. Of course I had my usual helpers.

This is what it looks like when I'm trying to blog, they like to help with that too!

So Thanksgiving, how was yours? We had a quiet one here with Gman1 spending it with his gf C's family - although they did spend the night Wednesday and came back late Thursday night.
Gman2 is still in Austria, here he is celebrating there. He comes home next month and we can't wait!

My chosen sister, Cori, joined us and brought cookies to decorate!

We had plenty of food, making for delicious leftovers! DH wanted a cheesecake and chose chocolate chip cookie dough. It turned out really well and "unfortunately" we have plenty more.

Do you stick to the usual for Thanksgiving, or add some new dishes or desserts to try?

The People Chose 🍂🍁

This is not my stitching, but I do have this pattern from the Fall Getaway I went to in October, I just need to stitch it.

Mill Hill, now I wonder if I should have added some colourful leaves.

I stitched this one for an exchange.

Another exchange.
