WHAT HAPPENED TO OCTOBER??

In the month of October we saw all of our children and grandchildren and met our first great-grandchild.  What a whirlwind month!!

First, I went to Dallas to keep Son #2’s children while they went to Kara’s high school reunion.  We had fun at the Magnolia Hotel and at the Dallas Arboretum Pumpkin Festival!!

When I returned home, Son #4 and family were waiting for me at the airport and we had a great day while they looked at our house and played in our newly landscaped yard.

And then Son #3 came for a visit and we had a great time exploring new restaurants in town (since my kitchen is not ready yet)!

Then we took a quick trip to the coast to meet our #1 Great Grandson.  He is a real doll!

To wrap up the month last night we had a combination birthday party and Halloween celebration in our nearly finished house.
