weekending.

our weekend consisted of:

the first snowfall

a.'s parents coming to visit

saturday morning waffles in our well-traveled waffle iron

the beginnings of a basement remodel
and the framing of walls
not to mention, a scared puppy

a homemade advent calendar
a varsity making water polo rock star (goooo michaela!)
the makings of a thanksgiving table
the planning of a thanksgiving meal.

a vegetable barley soup/stew that unfortunately didn't win the hearts and minds of anyone but me

a loaf of pumpkin pull apart bread that saved the day
transplanted herbs ready to fend off winter
airborne-taking, kleenex-using, cold-fighting afternoons
dog walking
dinner with new friends and a to die-for pumpkin maple cheesecake (waiting on recipe)
