daddy putting the lights on our house (that was interesting!)
we had a blessed thanksgiving in abilene with our families and friends! here are a few pics from that week, starting with stories by bobo...
our trick-or-treat bunch included woody, superman, a chef, elvis, a skunk, an autumn fairy, a garden gnome, belle, and a ninja. they must have been the cutest trick or treaters in town! after the festivities and the greatest candied apples ever (thanks, kasi), my nieces and nephews, sis-n-laws, and mom headed to our house for a slumber party while the guys enjoyed a weekend away at the cowboys game. to top off our great weekend, my oldest and dearest friend, jennifer, came in for the evening from austin. we had a much needed visit and i only wish they were much more frequent.
We had a fast and furious weekend at the Red Steagall Ranch Rodeo. Our team represented the ranch well and made it back in 5 our 7 events (only 2 other teams did that). Gammy, Teryn, Summer, and Tooter joined in on all of the fun. We had a few unusual mishaps that must be documented. First, Tate fell and tore his chin up. Next, an old door fell on my head at dinner (more about that later). Last, my accident prone husband got caught up in his stirrups during the wild cow milking and landed on his head, ending up with a severe concussion! When I said he keeps us on our toes, I meant it! Luckily, we are all okay.
Well..we are halfway through our training for White Rock! We are working so hard and are exhausted, but we know it will pay off! Here is a pic of our little running club...Elizabeth, me, Erin, and Angie.
