Halloween, Red-Hatters, and Babes Chicken Dinner House

Boo!  Are ya scared? Ah come on now, let me have just a wee bit of fun, won't you?

It's red and purple time again.  I have been away so much lately that it almost feels like I'm the newbie once more, but in reality I'm over a year old.  Crazy.

It's Halloween Season and that means the annual trek to Babes for the Big D Re-Gal Red Hatters.  I finally get to use the costume I bought for the June Sock Hop and then had to miss.  I have used it once for a costume at Brazos, but today it finally is fulfilling it's ultimate purpose in life.  RED HATS!!!   Oooooooh.

Jen's Birthday and Grandson's Swimming

With an early morning rise, the car is plowing through the fog and off to Abilene for the day.  It's a multi-purpose day.  Jon has a swim meet and we also want to celebrate Jen's birthday.


Anniversary Escape

It's crazy, but EIGHT years have come and gone since we boarded a catamaran on Lewisville Lake and said, "I Do."  Each year we try and at least have a small getaway to enjoy a few days with just each other - no internet, no work, just us.  This year we are not running very far at all and will hopefully discover some new little Texas fun.  Yes, we did go out for dinner ON the actual anniversary date (picture on left), but it's the season, right?

Texas is under a water deluge right now and as we leave, it looks as though the rain will be with us all weekend.  So be it -- fun can be had no matter what.

I know that Mister has a destination in mind, but I have not been privy to the information so sit back and enjoy the drive south.  Our first stop is in Lancaster, which we both love so much.  It has that small town feel, but is truly only minutes out of Dallas.  They are trying to have a little event in their town square, but the rain is not helping.  I'm a little sad, as there used to be the coolest spinning shop here and I miss it.

Growler Night

Running away together on Thirsty Thursdays is still taking place.  Honest.  As proof, I will share some scenes from tonight.

Grandsons Swimmeet - First One of the Year

I have not seen any grandchildren in a very long time.  June in Provo and and May for Jen's family.  It seems like forever.  We are off to a swimmeet near Lewisville and looking forward to it.  These boys are soooo big but I have missed them incredibly.

Let's get this meet underway.  Jen, Jared, and Josh arrive and soon we are underway.  They are running the meet differently this year so it will go super fast and I'm thrilled.  These bleachers are just not friendly to old bottoms.
