2010-Nov.25 Thanksgiving Celebrations with Family


To GrandMother's house we go. . . . . . that is Grandmother to Johnny, Great-Grandmother to John Thomas, and that is Great-Great GrandMother to Joseph. Yes, we are talking about Nannaw. Still going strong. Wow! still making Thanksgiving Dinner for her family. Along with her friend Mr. Wilson - Norvell, dinner was great too. We spent quality time with our family that came in from Austin. Connie and her family drove down for a visit. Connie, I should say my friend for life, because she was the "First Responder" all those years ago when Kendra had her "accident" at camp and almost drowned! I don't like to think about it, but I should give Thanks everyday that everything turned out okay and My Kendra was spared and given back to us.

Anyway, here are some pics from our day at Nannaw's house with cousins from Austin.

What a great table setting Nannaw. Looks wonderful.

Hey, Mike, weren't you just in the other room? Did you run over here to be in another pic?? :)

It was a great day to spend it with family-meeting cousins and seeing a cousin again, but it was a sad day too, not to spend it with "all" my children and grands too. Maybe next time-hopefully next time!

2010-Nov.23 Getting Ready for Turkey Day

I took off work today-the day before Thanksgiving, so I will be home five (5) straight days. WOW!

Trying to get ready for the upcoming Holidays.
We (Johnny, Me, Joseph and John Thomas) will be celebrating this year at Johnny's Grandmother's house-Nannaw. Alta, My Mother-In-Law will be with us and also, some cousins from out-of-town will also be there.

So I thought I start on decorating. I thought I would make a wreath for my bedroom door. I am
not quite through with it.

I even tried making the bow for it. And I was so excited that I was able to make that bow myself.

MERRY CHRISTMAS
