Happy Thanksgiving

Well Thanksgiving is coming to an end for another year. I hope everyone had a good one. We had a very good one. We only had 11 this year last year we had 20 so Donald was not near as stressed. The weather was great the kids went outside and played. I took a few pictures of our day. Of course like we do each year my Mom and I get together and look at the ads and figure out where we are going to go first because of course everyone that knows me knows that the day after Thanksgiving shopping is one of my favorite days of the year .
Well really there is not any particular thing that either of us wants so we are getting a later start than we normally do. Meemaw is going to pick me up at 6:00 a.m. instead of 4:30 or 5:00. Of course even though there is really not anything we want we have to go shopping the day after Thanksgiving.

Now we are finishing off the day watching the Texas A&M game. Go Aggies. Then of course we will be watching the Oklahoma game Saturday night Go Sooners. So now it is time to get in the Holiday Spirit and start putting Christmas stuff up. I just love this time of the year. I hope everyone enjoys the pictures.

I can't believe it is almost Thanksgiving

I just thought I would write a short update on what is going on here. Today was Nathan's last day of school for this week he is out for Thanksgiving break. Tomorrow is Daniel's 12th birthday which is so hard to believe that he will be 12. We are planning on having a birthday cake for him on Thursday. We are going to have a house full again for Thanksgiving this year. Not as many as last year but maybe around 13 people. Uncle Shawn and Aunt Khristy and kids will not be here this year neither will Uncle Robert and Aunt Becca and kids. Uncle Don from Oklahoma is here and hopefully Uncle Terry and Aunt Trish from Oklahoma will be here. Nathan had his picture taken at school with a Christmas background so all the Aunts and Uncles that read my blog you will be getting another picture of Nathan. They turned out real well Nathan did very good for the photographer. Donald took leave the whole week which has been nice having him home all week. Well I guess that is all for now I will take pictures on Thanksgiving and write a short update about our day then.

Happy Election Day

I did my duty and voted today. Donald and I tried to early vote about three times and it was unreal. It was over an hour wait so we decided to vote on election day. I went to vote around 9:30 and was in and out in 15 minutes it was great. Donald will have to vote after he gets off work so hopefully he won't have to wait. So now tonight instead of watching all the returns we are going to probably watch a movie. I got a phone call from the nurse at Nathan's school and she said that he was going around a table and tripped and fell face first on the table and busted his lip and cut his top gum. She said he was bleeding and did not want anyone to try to stop the bleeding or put ice on it. So I went up there and saw him playing on the play ground and motioned his teacher and she came over and said he was fine so I left him and really don't know how bad his injuries are. So I guess I will see when I pick him up this afternoon. I will let everyone know how he is. So if you have not voted get out and vote and have a great day.

Update on Nathan's injuries. Not as bad as I was thinking they might be. He did hit the table face first and busted his lower lip and the gum between his front teeth split. I did not get a real good look at the gum injury but the lip was a little swollen but he acted like it did not bother him. So he is Okay.
