Chris' Visit

Here's a couple of pics from when Chris and Tim stopped by Thanksgiving eve!

Thanksgiving

Well, it's over. The hustle and bustle of food preparation and it's gone in one gulp! We went to my sister-in-law Cheryl's this year, but I brought the turkey. It's a little difficult trying to time the cooking of a turkey with a 45 minute ride in between. I started the turkey at 9am and it still wasn't done at 3!!! We were starving! Luckily, Cheryl is always one to try new recipies. She had pumpkin soup, veggie dip and a delicious cider. So we kept picking until the darn bird was done. And to top it off, the bird didn't have one of those "pop tops" to let you know when it's done. We had to use the meat thermometer and it seemed like forever. Derek kept hovering over the pan like a buzzard. Ha ha! Anyway, all was good. We got home about 7 ish and everyone put on their jammies (probably cause they couldn't button their pants)! Roger and Austin have the day off and Courtney and I went to work. I got up early to do a little "black Friday" shopping. I was sitting at my desk by 7am. Austin is playing in a basketball tournament this weekend so we'll be busy. I know.......yes, I said basketball.

Here's a few videos, he's in the orange shirt #1.

Halloween and Bowling

Let's try to catch up.

Football is over, thank God! I am able to get back to my gym routine and I actually have Austin jogging with me down at the battleship. We even convinced Roger to join us one night, but we kicked his butt!! This past weekend Austin and Courtney joined me at Boot Camp. They both kicked my butt!!! Not really......

Okay, so Sue Sue and I went to the "Boo at the Zoo" at Buttonwood park. It was a Big Friends Little Friends outing. We met up with another BFLF couple and the girl Kalie is Sue Sue's age. They hit it off well. We plan to meet up with them at the Christmas Party. Here's some pics from that fun filled evening!!



































I went to a Halloween party for work. Can you believe this costume?? Meet Poe.










I also started something new with my kids. Every month we have to get together for a meal. Just once I month! This past month we did brunch and had tons of food! It was great to see everyone together, life is too short! Hopefully, the kids will cook next time, ha ha! Maybe some pictures next time.

Sue Sue and Austin and I went bowling last night. After a while we had to put the bumpers up!!!

Here's some shots!
