A gnome house divided

Annual cross state rivalry game - The Apple Cup. University of Washington Huskies (twins went there) and Washington State University Cougars (everyone else went here). Huskies won 45-17. Tar sez well dogs won over cats - that's a good thing right?

A Thanksgiving Story for the ages

 The Seattle Times is having a contest about Thanksgiving Disasters.
I suggested to Nephew-In-Law he send in our particular disaster.
It got published tonight.
The article is here. 
(Starts out '“Twas the night before Black Friday,)
Nephew-In-Law's book is here.  (Had The Engineer in tears from laughing.)

Getting colder

32 here this morning. Friend in Colorado sent this picture of the elk herd she

passed on the way back from the store.

Super Moon!

 

We had clouds all night. But my friends in Colorado took this picture. :-)

Abby does not think this is adorable... :-)

The gnomes say

never let politics interfere with turkey (and beer - especially beer).

The sun will rise tomorrow

Last night President Obama said 'the sun will come out tomorrow' to help ease our shock.
My SIL sent this from the farm. It did. Rise :-)

It. Is. Here.

Abby says what is so surprising about this?

Abby's trees show off.

You know you go to Starbucks too often -

 

 when they have your order memorized.

This is the new Unity Cup. They are not saying if it is the holiday cup or a cup to get us thru the

next week (or two or three!)

It is full of line drawings of all sorts of different people.

:-)
