Day after Thanksgiving 2009

Up bright and early again...but this time, it wasn't because of the nieces and nephews. We all stayed up and watched a rather disturbing movie, The Mist. It kept me up all night. Every little noise I heard startled me. By the way, if you have not watched this movie, don't bother...it's awful and has a terrible ending.

Anyway, we got breakfast from the famous J & J's BBQ...their bacon, egg, and cheese tacos were absolutely delicious and so were their migas (special breakfast tacos with tortilla strips). Wendy and baby Alex arrived around 10:00 in the morning so we were very excited. She spent Thanksgiving with Mark's side of the family and drove down early this morning.

We always have a great time when all the sisters get together. Since my little sister and her family live in San Antonio, and my oldest sister and her family live in Austin, we rarely get together except for holidays such as these. Great times!

The best news of all today was that the Trinity Trojans football team beat Arlington Martin in the semifinals of high school football. We were bummed about missing the game since we were out of town, but we were able to listen to the game on the radio. They ended up winning 37-19. We will play the winner of the Arlington-Coppell game scheduled for tomorrow. I'm hoping they will go all the way to state. GO TRINITY!!!


Various pictures from today:

Bryce took Freeway for a walk down the street...he was so proud of himself.


Lucas reading "Dig, Dig, Digging" to baby Alex. He has the entire book memorized word for word...very impressive.


The kids enjoyed playing "Pirate Pop-Up" I jumped every time the pirate popped out of the barrel.


Alayna with mommy!
