Visitors

We sure love having family come and stay with us. The boys got to spend some great one-on-one time with their Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Gray. They had a lot of fun going on walks and rides with Grandpa. Grandma read lots of stories. Then we had our visits to the zoo, rose garden, and miniature golf.

Jaron "pop his head open" as he puts it at the Rose Garden. He got a deep puncture wound to his forehead when he fell going up the rock stairs with his hands in his pocket. It could have been a lot worse though.

Having them come and stay made a great couple of days.

Fall & Thanksgiving

I say it every year and I will say it again. I LOVE FALL! It just love when the air turns cool, the crunch of the leaves, and the fact the holiday's are approaching. I was driving one day down the tree en-covered roads we have here. The leaves were falling and the wind was blowing, they leaves were flying all through the air. It just made me so happy. Even more awesome, in Texas fall weather lasts a long time. In Dec. it is still fall weather. I do like snow and miss it a little, but I have the leaves to make me happy.

For Thanksgiving this year we had special visitors. Grandma and Grandpa Gray came. I made my first Thanksgiving dinner, turkey and all. It went really well. I made the ribbon Jell-O I grew up on and all the things that are a must for me. I made a pumpkin pie from scratch that was sooo good. It is a lot of work for one meal, but I had fun doing it.
