Catching up!

Alrighty folks, I've fallen off the blog for quite some time but I am back in full force!! I have this update done and am already in the works for the next one so hopefully I will be able to keep up with the "catch-ups" so you know why in the world I've been way too busy to blog!! We have had a jam-packed fall and it is just going to continue in this pattern for a while!
Here we go....
Caleb started grad school at UTD this fall, just taking one class to get back in the groove, and he is loving being back!! He started with a great class, Marketing Management, and I am so proud of him! He has learned just how HARD his undergraduate degree was (Mechanical Engineering from Texas A&M) and how different it is studying for business classes than engineering. I am sure it is a welcomed change! In addition, we have taken on football games (both pro and college), two mini-vacations, re-landscaping our entire front yard, lots of birthday events for family and friends, our first Thanksgiving celebration at our home and are a part of a different side of the CARES Apartment Ministry we were involved for 18 months prior to homeownership. We are so blessed to have so many wonderful opportunities and are grateful for all of the friends and family we have been able to share these memories with!! Enjoy some pictures of some of these events! More to come soon, I promise!!
Last First Game of the Season at Cowboy Stadium... and boy will we be grateful for a new, AIR-CONDITIONED stadium next year (or whenever we can afford to go to a game..ha!)

US... I love my husband and how we both enjoy sports, especially FOOTBALL!

We love the Seiferds and the free tickets they got us... y'all are AWESOME!!

Laura and ME, wishing we were back in our cheerleader days so we could show the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders some new moves, like real cheerleader ones!

Happy Birthday LAURA!!!

Happy Birthday again!! We went to Maggianos to celebrate then ditched the group as they went on for an evening of dancing.. I was sick, yuck! That was pretty much me from August to October- gotta hate allergies!

Fightin' Texas Aggie Band at the A&M vs. Arkansas State game, we lost. We're REBUILDING... (keep saying it and maybe you'll believe it too!)

ME- deathly ill at the game. Seriously, I slept through at least half of the game. At least we're terrible and the stands are never full, so we could really spread out at the top of the zone. And do you see how tired Caleb is?? Well my wonderful husband walked down about 40 STEEP stairs at least twice to get me ice and a soda because my blood sugar was so low I nearly passed out on the dude next to me. Did I say again how much I love him?!???

The troopers who put up with sick old me all day. They look surprisingly unaffected.. maybe they are just trying to find the good in things. Remember- we LOST. Against AK State.

Happy Birthday Honey!! I love you!

The boys at Caleb's celebration!

And the girls... we were also celebrating the joyous addition of baby Trogdon in the belly. We love everything about that baby except for the sickness your mother has had to endure.. really, what's so bad about garlic??

At the air show, sick again. I slept through some big loud airplane bomber thingy. But the Thunderbirds were really cool.
Nita and Geary... the faithful in-laws always willing to entertain my husband's child-like fetishes!
Thunderbirds.
Thunderbirds.
A&M vs. Colorado.. WE WON!!! And I wasn't sick- double whammy!
Josh, Nita and Caleb... she doesn't look old enough to be their mother!
Caleb and Me!
