The smell of pumpkin pies baking in the oven...uummmmm! Such delight! I love to smell them baking. It lets me know that the holiday season has officially arrived! Got off of work at 2:30, picked up Allyssa from Gordon at Reedy River Baptist Church at 2:45, picked up Dakota at day care at 3:00, had to go to the bathroom really bad b/c of all the water I have drank today, left day care, headed home and arrived at 3:20. girls played a little, vincent went to easley to pay a bill, put dakota down for a nap, (which lasted a long total of 30 minutes), gave allyssa a popsicle, allyssa and i went outside and set the swing right side up, got a load of wood to build a fire in the fireplace, bringing it in and dakota wakes up, in a bad mood, wanting someone to hold her. tried to start the fire, but it would not light, my kindling was partially wet, so no fire. vincent arrives home, we just peddled around the house until Natasha came and picked them up at 7:00 on their way to Gaffney for Thanksgiving. went to walmart to pick up the dancing princesses that allyssa wants for christmas, picked up some scrapbooking stickers for mom that she asked me to check on, picked up my cover girl makeup and maybelline great lash (very black) mascara, vincent a new toothbrush, (he does not like the one I got him the other day), picked up a memory makers scrapbook magazine, stopped by zaxby's to eat dinner, came home and prepared the pumpkin pies, put them in the oven, looked at my memory makers magazine while they baked, which happened to be 70 or 80 minutes, ( i lost count on the number of times I had to reset the timer for 10 more minutes), took them out, they have to cool for 2 hours before I can put them in the refrigerator, getting ready to cover them and finally GO TO BED!!!!! What A Day!
