Happy Thanksgiving



We had a really good time being with family this Thanksgiving. Our plans this year took us to Momma J and Papa J's house for a Turkey lunch. Everything was very yummy and the company was great. Even as we looked through all the Black Friday advertisements we continued to be thankful for our many blessings that we already have. Reid this year is thankful for his mommy and his daddy (they just didn't make a shirt for daddy!) His parents are thankful for him and for our relationship with the Lord who provides for all of our needs. On Thanksgiving night we watched the Aggies beat the longhorns with Mimi and Papa as well as cousin Kennedy, Uncle Kenny, and Aunt Stephenie. Reid was so tired from the day that he cheered the Aggies to victory in his dreams.

Things that have been going on with Reid this past month...
1. Began to notice things around me, I love to sit and look at what is going on with everyone.

4. Loves to listen to his grandparents talk and will "coo" at what they are saying.
5. I have been playing with my older cousins Annelee and Makenlee. I have had a sleepover with Makenlee. Sometimes we like to have a crying choir together... it makes our parents laugh.

7. I have been wearing my new Aggie clothes on Saturdays, but I think they need more help then this new little fan can give them.
8. Mom has discovered I do not like spicy and creamy foods, especially together.
9. I sleep mostly all night waking mommy up between 4am and 5am because I am hungry.
10. I love looking at mobiles and sitting in the swing, and listen to my dad sing.

Texas Rangers ALCS Game 6


Kasey and I had a date night in Arlington to watch the Rangers defeat the Yankees. We usually go to baseball games on vacations and love seeing some of the famous old ballparks. We have been to Wrigley Field, Fenway Park, Yankees Stadium (new), and the SF Giants stadium, plus the Ballpark in Arlington several times. All summer long I wanted to go watch the Rangers, but being in the hot Texas heat and being pregnant changed my mind every time. Kasey and I have been glued to the TV watching the Rangers this post season. Yeah, Kasey watching an entire baseball game at home who would have ever thought that would ever happen? I then really wanted to go to a game since I was no longer pregnant and it was nice outside, so Kasey bought us tickets to game 6. We watched each game just hopping for them to make it back to the ballpark and we were so fortunate they did. What a blast the game was...it was so loud...but a moment in sports history we will never forget!
