THANKSGIVING 2009

We had the whole family here for Thanksgiving!!! Megan and Travis arrived the Saturday night before Thanksgiving. The rest of the gang from out of town arrived Wednesday night. On Friday we took the kids to the zoo. On Saturday we hit the mall. There was a lot of game playing during the weekend. Lots of food, family, and fun!!!

ANNOUNCEMENT

just in case there are any of you who don't know yet... I'M GOING TO BE A GRANDMOTHER AGAIN!!!!!! Mandy is having #3! I think I have given her plenty of time to tell everybody that she wants to tell herself, so now I'm making my announcement!

CHOCOLATE WITHDRAWAL

I think I'm having chocolate withdrawal! I woke up this morning thinking about it and I still am! We had SO much candy left over from Halloween that we've been eating it ever since and still had a lot until last night. Emily and Bossy came over and we gave it all to them. I'm SO glad to have it out of the house so I'm not tempted by it because if it's here I'm gonna eat it and I certainly don't need to be! I wouldn't throw it away because I spent SO much money on it! I'm always afraid I won't have enough candy on Halloween so I always over buy, but I don't think I've ever bought as much as this year! We only had 8 trick or treaters. All that sald, it's a good thing we don't live really close to a store or I might just run out and get a candy bar right now!!!

THANKSGIVING IS COMING

I'm excited because all of my kids, their spouses, and my grandkids will be here for Thanksgiving! We are going to have SO much fun! I can't wait!

UTAH TRIP

The Utah trip was fun! We got to see Megan and Travis and a lot of Steve's family. Megan, Emily, and I got in some quality time shopping, our favorite together activity! We went to the Park City Outlet, as well as a mall, and the Quilted Bear. For those of you who don't know what the Quilted Bear is, it is a store where they sell mostly handmade items. I always go there when I go to Salt Lake City. Actually this time I went twice! I love to go there!

INTERNATIONAL QUILT FESTIVAL

Went to the quilt show on Saturday with Angie Hulse. She came down from San Antonio for it and stayed with us since her mom and dad don't live her anymore. We had a good time!

FALL DECORATING

I did a little bit of fall decorating today. I'm hoping this will make the fall weather come to stay!
