I am going to the Edward Jones Christmas dinner this evening. I am excited to see some of my favorite clients.
Yesterday we mowed (vacuumed) the yard and all the bags are now ready for pick up. We are supposed to be near 70 today but VERY windy. I am sure the yard will be full again.
The backyard cleans up nice. The poor plants are so confused with warm during the day and then mid 30's during the night. I think Saturday will be COLD north winds.
My orange climbing Rose bush that is over 20 years old is loving this weather. I hope you are enjoying your weather. I am sending you Blessings & Hugs!
Monday is here and we are still remembering the memories we made over the weekend.
We had such a blessed weekend. It started when our neighbors came over for a visit in the backyard. Jessica was pushing Bennett who is 8 and his sister who is 2 in our swing. Their laughter was music to our ears.
Then our adopted family arrived. We had the best time together celebrating 3 birthdays! We went to eat Mexican Food and "visited up a storm". Of course, the Texas Longhorns winning was the cherry on top.
Meet our grandson, Will, who is 6'5" at age 17. Yes he is taller than his dad who loves to mess with him. Yes, I am short!
Yes, Will is taller than his 6' mom! She takes such good care of us and obviously her son too.
Our dog Carly, loves everyone. Will doesn't even fit on the couch. But a fun time is always had when we are all together. Will has learned to tell long stories just like his Grandpa (as I shake my head).
Yes, we are very sad as they drive off because they are about 2 hours away and we don't like to drive after dark any more. We are so thankful every time they come to visit us. Yes, we are...
May you have a glorious weekend. At the moment I am enjoying one of my favorite coffee blends called Creme Brulee and a Creme Brulee creamer to go with it to make it even more special to the taste.
So exciting for in our area we just might see some snowflakes coming down on Monday. Now wouldn't that be delightful to ones eyes. Smiles Gloria
May you have a very pleasant wintery day today. We did get a bit of dusting of snow for over night and there is frost on the roof tops. My how I enjoy winter and all the snow flakes that fall from the sky. Stay warm and I will do the same in our area. Now where did I put that snow shovel. hahah Smiles Gloria

What is cooking this Caturday? What do you mean, you are tired of cooking?
The dogs may have gotten some of your cooking for Thanksgiving, but the cats didn't get a scrap, not a drop.
So you look here at me, and you better get us something to eat that is just as good as your Thanksgiving dinner was for you.
And our meal better include some of that pumpkin that settles an upset stomach too. I saw you sneaking some pumpkin pie last night and adding whipped cream on it.
The real reminder is you better make the cats happy, especially on Caturday! After all, we do have a day named after us. Now you have a good day and SMILE!
Welcome to Friday! I hope your day yesterday was Amazing!
Did you remember to take pictures? We did pretty good, especially as they are leaving.
The girls love to get into Gram's nail polish. I might have a few bottles.
How many colors would you like to choose from? Let me paint them on you, so I can decide which one I want to use on my nails!
Of course, nails were in between making Peanut Butter Chocolate Swirl Cookies. By the way, they turned out delicious! My girls have learned to be very good cooks.
It was an Amazing day that was enjoyed by everyone. Even the 5 dogs (3 ours + 2 of theirs) enjoyed the day. Many memories were made with lots of laughs and a few pictures were taken.
Don't rush today. Deep Breath! Everythings will be perfect, after all, it is Thanksgiving!
Take lots of pictures and enjoy the sounds of laughter all day! Make joyful memories!
Share your blessings with others so they will have wonderful memories too. Tell stories from the past that make everyone laugh.
Don't forget to say I love you often and Thanks for being my Friend too. That makes a good Thanksgiving a Great Day! Now go back for a second helping and help clean up the mess.
Be Thankful every day! Tomorrow is a big day for a lot of people!
Thanksgiving!
Is everything ready? Is the food ready to cook? Are the vegetables cut up? Is the house clean?
Come on in as long as you are bringing something to eat and especially dessert.
Now you know that stuff doesn't matter. It is all about family and friends being together. Hey, as long as you are here, will you rake some leaves for me?
May this day bring blessings to you and all of your family and friends. Fategrandma/Pam
