THANKSGIVING

We had a really nice Thanksgiving this year. We had Katrina, Ryan, and Daniel over, and Sean came too. It was truly wonderful to see Sean again. The last time he was with the family was last Christmas. Time sure does fly!

RASPBERRIES!

Daniel has learned how to do raspberries.

POOR TEDDY!! :0(

Nathaniel was determined to give Teddy a bath. It didn't quite work out, though.

OUR NEW HOME IN TEXAS

Everyone has asked me to send pictures of our new home in Texas. So, I decided that posting them on the blog would be the easiest thing to do (actually, it was Meagan's idea - GREAT idea, Meagan!)

Dorothy's Dash

Katrina and I participated in a 5K a couple of weekends ago. Bradley was suppose to do the race with Katrina, but after signing him up we found out that he had a scout camping trip the same weekend. So, instead of losing my $20 registration fee, I decided to do the 5K with Katrina. Katrina did a great job - she actually ran the race in about 33 minutes. I walked the race in about 45 minutes. Here is a link to view pictures from the race. Katrina's bib # is 196 and mine is 118. www.movin-pictures.com

Well, we finally did it!

The day has arrived - we're blogging! I don't really know how this will work, since our lives are pretty typical and not that exciting, but I'm going to give it a try.
