The Girls Arrive! Thanksgiving Holiday 2024

 Wednesday, November 27

Boy,  this was a busy day!!  Autumn, Hannah, and Kylee are driving here today for Thanksgiving vacation.  I was up early cleaning.  

Sweeping all floors and then mopping.  

Vacuuming all carpets and rugs.  

Emptying all the garbage.  

I cleaned the downstairs bathroom and my bathroom.  

I did the dishes and cleaned the counters.  

I dusted and cleaned the sliders.  

I finished up the girls' bathroom with a new shower liner, put the rugs back, and left clean towels.  

I vacuumed their bedroom, blew up the air mattress, and made sure all the beds were made.  

Summer and I gave both cats a bath and trimmed their nails.  I also trimmed up all the long hair on Nugget's belly and underside.  

I cleaned the laundry room.  

I fed my starter and made a loaf of sourdough.  

Right before they arrived, I got in a shower!

Eric mowed the whole lawn and set up his smoker for the turkey.  He also assembled my new island chairs!

The girls arrived around 3pm.  Hannah brought me a fall pillow and a bouquet of beautiful flowers!  How very sweet and I loved them.  

After they arrived, I practically turned around and started to prepare dinner.  Yes, it never ends.  Ha!  I made shepherd's pie for dinner along with brownies and ice cream for dessert.

After dinner, Summer and Hannah made two pumpkin pies and a peanut butter pie.  Summer was in heaven having a friend to bake with her.  I thought it was so kind of Hannah to do that with her.

Sierra was helping Autumn with a speech she was writing.  Then she made the pickle rolls for the next day.

I am so thankful for my girlies being here!
