January 1

I'm going to try to do a better job of blogging in 2011. Other than that, I didn't make any resolutions...mainly because I usually don't keep them.

Here's how our January 1st went:
* visited mom and took down all her Christmas decorations
* Stopped at Adv. Auto, looking for shocks for my tailgate, no luck
* Went to Lowe's, looked at new kitchen sinks & faucets, ceiling fan for Kaitlin's bedroom, and new track lighting.
* Ran down to work to do Sunday's Hot off the Press (news lost it out of the folder)
* Ate Popeye's for lunch
* Did the boys' laundry
* Played SkipBo with the kids
* Watched football
* Ham, scalloped potatoes, green beans and black-eyed peas for dinner
* Watched some of the Rose Bowl, TCU beat Wisconsin
* Kids went bowling with Brady at Northrock Lanes
* Finished CROSSFIRE by James Patterson


Today's agenda so far:
* Packed up the boys, they headed back to Manhattan
* Went to Walmart with Kaitlin to pick up a few necessities
* Doing the rest of our laundry, including boys' bedding
* Kaitlin went to New Market Square shopping
* Watching the Chiefs game (they are behind by a touchdown right now)
* Looking forward to 3 days of vacation, don't go back until Thursday


Here's Abby's latest "lazy" photo:

Margaritaville!

We had a wonderful get-together at On the Border this afternoon. The margaritas were great! Of course, I was the only one drinking - and I'm not even much of a drinker. It was great seeing my niece, Lenore and my nephew, Nick. Even though Nick lives here, I don't get to see him much, as his work hours prevent us from seeing much of each other. We did make a pact to get together and see a movie over the Thankgiving holiday. We will be going to Oklahoma on Thanksgiving to spend it with Charles, but I'll have to come back Thanksgiving night as I have to work on Friday. Here are some pictures from our afternoon out. Kaleb with Nick (Brandon provided Kaleb's rabbit ears)... Kaitlin and Brandon Mom, Terry, Sandy and Lenore Lenore and Mike Ryan and Diana Diana in her Garth t-shirt (I can't wait until tomorrow night!) Me with my sister Rhonda Mom and Lenore THE WHOLE CREW minus me - I'd rather be taking the picture! We are childless tonight, as Brandon went to a concert...
