I WON, I WON ....

My work had a Rhinestones and Ropers holiday party... (only in TX, right?!) It felt kind of wierd to put on jeans to go to a Christmas party.... but it was fun because I WON!!! I won 2 round trip tickets to Seattle and 2 nights hotel... yipee!! I never win anything!! The funny thing was, Calvin had just got back from Seattle that day for work.... now, he has to go back! We'll go in the summer when it's a bit warmer.

Fort Worth Parade of Lights

The day after Thanksgiving was a busy day for us ... of course I had to get up at the crack of dawn to go shopping... I didn't think there were that great of deals, but still had to get out there! I think my best find was a 10.00 stainless crockpot at Lowe's of all places! That evening we went to downtown Ft. WOrth for a parade ... even though we had reserved seats, we had to get there early to get the front row. We drank Starbucks hot chocolate and carmel apple cider (that stuff rocks!! since I don't like coffee). Thank goodness they only have it this time of year, and not year round, as I could get hooked on it! The parade was fun, and got pretty chilly and windy after the sun went down, so it really got us in the Christmas spirit!

WAAAAY Behind ...

OH my! I have not update in sooo long, I don't even know where to start! I don't think I ever posted any pics from Halloween.... so here you go:

Flower Mound Pumpkin Patch

Boy, we sure missed this place last year! We made a quick trip out on Thursday .. we had the Morse girls w/ us (Alix and Addison). The kids wanted to stay longer, but they were closing. They had a great time and as always a great place for pictures!

Is she really ready for this?!?

My baby is off to church camp ... for 2 nights... and it's 3 hours away!! When we got the info in the mail, we just threw it away.. we were like, she's to young for that and it's too far away.. she's NOT going! A few weeks later we hear of all her friends that are going .. and kept asking us if Rylee was going... then we found out that some good friends were chaperones...SO, we caved to peer pressure ... ha!! She was SO excited.. counting down the days . She is there right now, so I hope she's having fun and learning alot about Jesus!! :) Colby misses you Rylee! WE all do! Can't wait to see you tomorrow! :)

THANK YOU Pierce & Sophia!

Thank you SO much for getting us tickets to the STARS game. We had a BLAST! The Stars lost but it was still alot of fun. THere were 3 fights in the first 5 minutes! I really don't understand that, but it makes it exciting... (colby didn't really like it either)... It was a high scoring game, for Hockey ( 4 to 5).. so there was a lot of loud music and dancing... we had a great time .. thanks again! OH! and we saw Joe Cabutto there... too funny ... he was walking down the stairs, so Calvin texted him and said he had great seats .. he stood up and looked around and saw us ... it was pretty funny. Calvin knows someone EVERYWHERE we go... he even ran into someone in Albuquerque that he knew ... (can't take him anywhere)
