Arianna’s Field Trip

Wilderness Oaks 3rd Grade classes took a trip to the Institute of Texan Cultures.  Arianna invited us to go so I went since Manuel was not feeling good.  I arrived before the buses so I waited for the kids to arrive.  Took pictures as I waited.

I really enjoyed my day with Arianna and her class.  Thank you for the invite. 

Just Pictures

We rode with Manuel Jr to the Dominion to view some homes that have come up for sale.  Manuel had stayed in the car as he was tired.  We walked through this empty home and then into the garage.  Oh My, they had these two beautiful cars!  I knew Manuel would want to see these cars, so he came in and was amazed.  They are in mint condition and are for sale!

I think the yellow is a Woody and it’s a 51 and the other is a 48 Pontiac.  Very pretty cars!

On Sunday evening, we met the Compadres and Krista for dinner.  We went to BJ’s and had a great dinner and great visit.

On Monday, we had a doctor’s visit in the Quarry area so we decided to have lunch at Torchy’s Tacos, which we had been talking about last night at dinner.  Krista recommended the Migas tacos and they were delicious!

Christmas is in the air here, too.  Not only at our home!!

Torchy!!!

Halloween Night

The Girls are getting ready and they are so cute.  They got all their make up done themselves.  I guess they do not need Grandma anymore!  awwwww!

You will see some Christmas decorations in the bathroom and will wonder why.  Last night, I mentioned to the girls that we needed to gets things ready in a couple of weeks to decorate for Christmas.  Well, they said, let’s do it right now, so last night we got all things ready for Christmas.  These girls are amazing little helpers.  They had the house decorated in a few hours.  Yes, we are already enjoying the Christmas tree and all.

Love these two Girls so much.  They make our lives so complete!

Their Daddy took them out in the neighborhood and they brought back so much candy!   It started raining on them so they were home quite early.  They enjoyed themselves so much.  Another great Halloween Day & Night!

Exhausted they were the next day!

HAPPY  BIRTHDAY, DADDY!
