Happy Thanksgiving Blog Friends and Family!

I wanted to wish everyone a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving! This is my favorite holiday of all. I love turkey, stuffing, pumpkin pie and all the other goodies. I love being with family. I wish I could visit with friends but the time goes so fast. I am thankful for sooo many things, family, health, friends, our home, our jobs, our lives. Thankfully I am recovering from my gall bladder surgery pretty smoothly. The kids are being helpful and are doing well in school. Bella has been a great addition to our family. I AM THANKFUL!! Have a great Thanksgiving!!

Serenity Prayer Beads

My mom and I have are making handmade crafts of all sort. I am doing jewelry and prayer beads and she is making scarves. Sadly, I didn't get a picture of the scarves. I am adding chocolates, wreaths and prints. Some of our items are for sale at a local store in Brownsburg. I am sooo excited. You can check out our items at happilyhandmadegifts.blogspot.com. I am just getting the site up and running so give me a couple of days to get the full effect. I am also setting up a facebook page. Wish us luck! We have great teacher's gifts, family gifts and something for yourself. Check us out!!

Indiana State Musuem



 We went to the State Museum for their Day of the Dead activities. Sadly, I didn't take any group pictures. The kids got to decorate sugar skulls, paper flowers and shadow boxes. Our neighbors joined us too. Ben loves to hang out with Reed. They are like brothers to each other.
