Thanksgiving and More

Happy belated Thanksgiving. Wednesday I started cooking and I was really excited to try out some new recipes. Everything was great except for the rolls. Lets just say something didn't work because they looked like rolled up tortillas, I think the yeast was bad. Drew tried to comfort me by saying, "What did you expect, it was your first time making it." See, the first time I make anything it usually doesn't turn out. We had a good laugh and the rolls were the butt of most of the jokes during dinner. Anyway, we spent Thanksgiving with some friends in our ward. The food was great but the company was better. All in all it was a great day.

Last week Mac came down with a cold and it's only gotten worst. Now Drew and I have it so right now we are all home miserable. Got to love the cold season. Four months until the first of Spring!

All day I have been wiping Mac's nose so he decided to wipe mine. It was pretty cute but kind of annoying, now I know how he must feel.


Drew took our car Friday to get the transmission checked. Turned out we needed a new transmission. Ouch!! Not good timing with Christmas coming up. After talking to the head of the Honda dealership they told us that Honda was willing to pay for 75% of the repairs and they might pay all of it. We didn't think they would because our car is a 2002 (6 years old) and we bought it 3 years ago as is. Well, we got a call today saying that Honda is going to pay 100% of the new transmission!! I think we can mark this down as a tithing blessing.
