We got more snow!!
Woke up with snow on the ground, it was gone by the end of day. Here are few pics from this morning of the dogs playing in the snow.
struggling...
with my weight loss. I fell off the program for a few weeks when I went and weighed on Monday I had gained 3.2 pounds:(. I was so upset at myself that I could stay on track over the holiday. So after the meeting I went to Safeway and got a few things to help me stay on track. Thanks to Mary she told me about the 1 point jolly time popcorn, one small bag is only 1 point. I have been having one of them in the afternoon at work. I have been drinking all my water and then some, been spending a lot of time in the bathroom:). I have gotten to a place where I think I can eat like I did before I joined WW, but I know that I can't. So starting on Tuesday I am back on track to loose 10 pounds by the end of 2007. And I want to be at 75 pounds lost by Valentines Day!! I am currently at 57.2 pounds lost so I need to loose 17.8 pounds in the next 2 1/2 months which is totally do able. I just have to stay on track and stay away from the sweets. I am so proud of myselft that I have been able to loose 57.2 pounds in less then a year. In the next couple of weeks the new books come out for WW, hoping that will help me to stay on track.

Happy Thanksgiving!!
First, some interesting "Turkey Facts":
45 million Turkeys are eaten each Thanksgiving.
22 million Turkeys are eaten each Christmas.
19 million Turkeys are eaten each Easter.
A 16-week-old Turkey is called a "fryer".
A 5- to 7-month-old Turkey is called a "young roaster" and a 1-year-old Turkey is a "yearling". Any Turkey 15 months or older is called "mature".
Turkey breeding has caused Turkeys' breasts to grow so large that the Turkeys fall over.
A 15lb. Turkey consists of 70% white meat and 30% dark meat.
Wild Turkeys can fly for short distances up to 55 miles per hour.
Commercially raised Turkeys cannot fly (primarily because they are too top-heavy).
Turkeys can drown if they look up when it is raining.
Wild Turkeys can run 20 miles per hour.
Turkeys can see movement almost a hundred yards away.
Wild Turkeys spend the night in trees, flying to their roosts around sunset.
They especially like Oak trees.
A Wild Turkey has excellent hearing & vision, and their field of vision is about 270 degrees.
Wild Turkeys were almost wiped out in the early 1900s.
Today, there are Wild Turkeys in every state except Alaska.
Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving with your family and friends. I am spend the day with family and eating some great food. This year I am thankful for Corey, Thor, Buster, a home, my family and my dear friends.

Dinner Table...
we bought a new dinning room table a couple of weeks ago and we finally got it delivered yesterday!! It is so cool it is counter height and we got 6 stools/chairs to go with it. I am in love with this table and chairs I love how tall it is. The table and chairs are by Ligo. We also bought a new couch and love seat but they have not come it yet.

The Scrapgals Meet
I had a great time, we met at Nothing but Noodles and had lunch to meet Trish. I also got to meet Nicole for the first time. We had a great time talking about out life's, about scrapbooking. We had to ask a stranger from the resturant to take our pictures of all of us. Then I handed my camera to Amy to snap a few of me.
