Chris and Barbie try to say goodbye to the guys....no luck

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Maybe we can get their attention through the window? 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: If it wasn't so cold, I'd strip and try and to get their attention! 

Chris: They really are hopeless!

After class the girls head toward Vickie's Vintage.

Trish: Hi, ladies...anything I can help you with in the Flower shop or greenhouse?

Chris: Not today, I REALLY need some boots...wow, did you clear all the snow yourself.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Trish: It's not too bad, the concrete heats up and we haven't had that much snow this week. Good Luck shopping, Vickie's is always great. Don't forget Valentines' Day for your guys.

Barbie: Well, if you have some flowers shaped like footballs, I'll be back.

(chortling) 

Trish: My dad and brother are the same, can't pry them away from the tv this time of year.

Chris: Sis, are you going to look for anything...?

Barbie: Um, maybe some shoes for Chelsea, but it is hard if she's not here to try them on.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: I do have a coupon I could use????Hmm, lots of great things on this rack.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: This turquoise jacket is gorgeous.

Chris: Look at these Pink boots, I don't know which I like better?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I'll have to get some help!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: Well, two of these are your size...do you want to try them both?

Chris: Oh Yes, Please!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

These are perfect for shoveling the driveway. But, not really great for show or going out?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: These would be perfect at the mall, or the dance floor and in your size.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Thanks for your help, I'll wear the galosh boots, can you wrap those up though, please.

Vickie: Of course, anything else we can show you?

Chris: No, I'm in enough trouble now.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Zoe from upstairs: Barbie, Chris, let's do lunch this week!

Girls: Sounds Good, stunning outfits up there!!!

Meanwhile back at Chris and Rob's home.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

So, Skipper it's your turn...you have to beat six flashes.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Skipper: Here goes!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Melissa: Keep Going!

Suddenly Grumpy cat reaches up and hits the keyboard 9 times in a row. 

The girls give up and go upstairs. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Grumpy Cat: (Sore loosers). 

Foofie: (I don't care, they left behind tasty sandwiches.)

Thanksgiving Goodness in the HFIM House!

Rory: Kevin, are the veggies almost done, everyone is sitting down.  Kevin:Just about, you can take this bowl in, I'll be right there. Ryan: We are gathered here today, to give thanks and share our blessings. Thank you for the roof over our heads and the plumbing that is working now. Thank you for the food we are about to share and for our 'family and friends' we are sharing it with. Now, let's eat. Aidan: Is this the kid's table?  Joe: I don't think so. Please pass the potatoes. Vickie: I never would have thought we could get 26 for a sit down meal here. I kinda like it here in the livingroom with the fire going! Sindy: Kevin, this was a great idea to grill the veggies, that corn looks scrumptious. Kevin: That's nothing compared to this turkey and dressing. Dang, Sindy you are the best cook.  Sindy:All in a days work, I'm saving room for pie, though. Barbie: Chelsea and I and everyone here at the HFIM house want to wish you all Happy Thanksgiving and thanks for viewing our celebration. Patrick: Pie, where's the pie!

Thanksgiving Prep in the HFIM house

The HFIM house is a-bustle. With lousy weather forecasted for the holiday weekend, these Chicago millennials are either working or sticking close to what is now home in the HFIM house. 

Anyway...they are ALL family ----sort of. 

Only a few days away and the girl's are getting a heads up on the prep for Thanksgiving.

Barbie is using the new mixer for cornbread muffins, while Sindy gives her encouragement.

Plenty of butter and fresh corn for the muffins.

Chelsea is cutting apples for pies.

Rory asks, "What else do you need from the fridge besides cream and eggs?"

This is the last turkey dish, rolled turkey breast with stuffing inside. I just need the chilled veggies.

Doctor Ken:I'm getting ready to 'operate' on the grill. I'm in charge of roasting vegetables. What's that, Monnie. 

Monnie: Just the vegetables and stock for gravy. It's chilled now to make stuffing.

Sindy: Thanks Monnie, I needed that, is Ken working on the veggies?

Monnie: He is firing up the grill right now.

Sindy:There the last turkey in the oven. We will be in great shape for Thursday, since everyone has to work the day before. You can never make too much ahead.

Raquel and Belle are folding napkins for the table. If everyone is here on Thursday we will be over 20? We will have to eat in shifts.

Elsa: The centerpiece is lovely, Mulan. You did a great job using everything we already had from the yard. In Sweden we use wheat, cranberries and apples for seasonal decorations, and candles, lots of candles.

Mulan: We do too, in Northern China...the table needs to be straightened. We will have to wait for the party on Thursday. Meanwhile we will have to all eat in the kitchen. 

(NOISE from the living room---another fumble or bad call?)

Nemo:NOT FAIR! Bad call ref, bad call! 

Aidan: HORRIBLE CALL, it was in! 

What a game....I smell food...

That's it for today---anyone up for Pizza?

(to be continued for Thanksgiving)
