An Enchanted Evening...

What an absolutely enchanitng evening. Judy and Amy surprised Sandy and Josh with a
an engagement party. The couple actually thought they were partcipating in a
ceremony to renew Ronnie and Amy's wedding vows, but just before what would have been a ceremony they all took there places and the tabels were turned. Everything was
so beautiful and Sandy was absloutley gorgeous. The jazz band that places at the
42Street Bar played, they are awesome. Eric and Randy weren't able to go with us, but I took plenty of pictures for them all to see.

Enjoying the Colors God gave us...

As I mentioned in my earlier post we just got home from our family vacation to Maggie Valley, we had such a good time. Didn't really do a lot, got some much need rest and enjoyed the local sites. The leaves were absolutely wonderful, the colors were just majestic. Oh, and the fall decorations were unbelievable! Now that we're home it's time to carve our pumpkins and enjoy Paradise Pumpkin Pie
I love anything with Cream Cheese, Eric and I dream of opening our own Cheesecake
Bakery and Tea Room.
Paradise Pumpkin Pie (This is my youngest sons Mikes' favorite)
1 9" unbaked pastry crust
1 8-oz. pkg Philly cream cheese softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 egg
Combine cream cheese and sugar, add vanilla. Mix a med speed, blend in egg. Spread on
bottom of crust.
1 1/4 cup canned pumpkin
1 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs beaten
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground goner
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
Combine above ingredients, mix well,; gently spoon or pour over cream cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 65 minutes. Cool and top with cinnamon whipped topping

Randy and the boys are doing all they can to keep me from bringing out the Christmas decorations; the only reason they are succeeding is because my oldest son is moving into his own apartment next weekend, so that is actually occupying my mind. Actually more then they know, he's not going to be that far away, but still it want be the same without him; he's my
buddy. He's a huge Redskin fan and loves Christmas even more then I do. I not sure who will really miss him the most he and his brother are really close and he and his dad love spending time together. Eric brings so much laughter into our home and when my husband works nights
he and I can always find something to do. Okay it's time to go, the tears are starting to flow and
I don't want to cry,becasue I am so very proud of the strong wonderful man my son has become.
