well…my next stop was going to be 2peas but guessing from your post that will get me nowhere:)
Fun list!
nothing insightful to add, but gosh darn it you’re funny! 
So I finally find your blog, and all you talk about is cheez??? Tough luck. I guess I have to check back some other day, when you’re all deep and wise and have cool insights to share. Though I’m totally with you on TIVO. It is the best invention EVER. So, are you up for IKEA next week?? They’ve got cheap Christmas decorations, shrimp sandwiches, and $1.99 kid’s meals. 
Can’t turn that down, can you? How about Monday or Friday??
Cheese. Cheese? hahaha thanks for the entertainment!
I am in love with my dishwasher, don’t tell Drew.
I am currently crushing hard on my Method soap/lotion combo from Target. I’ll have to take a picture of it, but you simply MUST get you some. It’s VanillaPeppermint scented. My nose is ready for Christmas and my hands have never been softer during baking season! 
Well, from looking at the garden over at 2 peas it is hard to tell that you are thinking about cheese! Beautiful work Shannon, very inspiring, I am off to scrap now! (My fav was the one of Franklin escaping from his crib- what a cutie!)
Cheez? What can top cheez?
seriously………hilarious!!!!! you crack me up so hard. so funny.
thats what i love about you. at times deeply insightful. othertimes “cheezy”. its good to be well rounded.
p.s. your layouts in the garden are beauty-ful.
I finally thought of one – self-trimming baby nails. oh wait – that’s not one?? Come on, why can’t someone invent that…. plus hair where the highlights never fade or grow out…but I guess that would be a wig, now wouldn’t it.. Sigh… anyhoo, on with your day…
i am thankful for baby wipes too
use them every where and can not imagine changing a diaper without them

Why did it take so long? Was it not defrosted all the way? I am salivating over your leftovers.
Ever hear of turkey bags? Did you use one? I think you can cook a turkey in those in two hours.
hahaha—–sounds similar to my story. We always buy turleys when they’rs on sale for T-giving and then freeze and cook them in January or February since we’re always to my Grandma’s. I like the leftovers. Last year my oven broke……like half way through cooking the turkey! it was taking forever….finally figured out the problem. I had my parents and siblings all over….what a mess. Ended up borrowing a roaster. BUT, got a new oven out of it. lol
reward…what did you make for desert?
Hee hee hee!!
Maybe it was just destiny for you to have a quiet dinner together. =) Props to you for making a turkey…I’ve never even tried that!
thats the hardest part about going somewhere for thanksgiving…there’s no leftovers at home!
Sorry your turkey took a little longer than expected But you got a quiet adults only dinner out of the deal right?
REWARD! Without a doubt…
that is SO something that would happen here. minus the kid part. maybe you and the hubster were just meant to have a quiet meal all to yourselves? or maybe you had a stubborn turkey!? 
Thank god someone else besides me didn’t have enuf leftovers so made another turkey! ha!
Everyone here told me I was nuts, but days and days of turkey “sammiches” AND homemade turkey soup (I do mine with lentils) is what I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE ’bout T-giving, and I still had SO MUCH dressing and yams and cranberries!! ha!
yes
turkeys are stupid
i heard they could drown by lookin gup at the rain
so, there you go
i have never ever cooked a turkey – so hats off to you
(not that i wear hats…but i would like to be the kind of person that does)

Great list. I am also thankful for 3pm naptime It gives me a chance to relax, unwind and reflect on what I am thankful for. Have a great Thanksgiving, Shannnon.
Hey… i was gonna say naps.
my camera and other people with cameras who see things beautifully and simply.
i love your list! we have several of those items in common!
I am thankful for all the things that warm my heart and make me smile. Thank you for a list that did both of these things! Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving Shannon.
I’m thankful for my friends

Andrea

that is so exciting.
That’s such a great feeling. Nice one Matt…
Hip hip hooray for Matt!! and for his brilliant mother, too!
Yeah for Matt… and for you Shannon. If he didn’t have a good stable home life he would be doing so good. Pat yourself on the back for being such a good mom, and remember that it is the most important job ever!
yeah for him!!!
that discription so fits my second child – they seem to get looked over so way to go Matt
Don’t you love what a certain word from your kid’s teacher can make you feel like?
Way to go Matt!! Yeah, I think it’s in the genes. Do in-laws genes count?

“Happy to the point that I had to concentrate on not looking like a fool. I tried to make my smile normal and not freakish..” Love that line – totally understand what you mean. That’s a lot better than trying not to have your lop quiver when you really want to burst into tears!

YIKES! What a nightmare. That is my biggest computer fear. I think I’ll do a back up today
ps: see my email address below
i am soooooo sorry but you seem to be handeling it well. this happened to me once upon a time and i lost 300+ pictures and it took me a good three years to not cry every time i thought about the lost moments. i say lost moments cause i can’t even remember what the pics are of. mushy mom brain. i have to have pics. to remember anything.
so, did you lose any pictures? Dave seemed to make it sound like it was just contact info? How’d he fix it, and WHERE did he download it from? I’m afraid now.
oh that stinks!!! i’ve been there & it’s not fun. thank goodness your photos were saved though.
oh, that is scary!! I guess it’s one form of housecleaning, huh? So glad you didn’t lose your photos!
writing this down
dont down load ciruses
good one
and i am going to go back up my pics on my computer now:0

Yikes! I sure wish the silly virus creating beasts would go away, permanently.
We were hit a few months back and unfortunately it also got our banking involved. Nightmare does not even begin to describe it.
Glad to read that most of your photos were saved. Yay for small miracles.
