Trying to get the perfect picture
Well...we tried. I think we may have a couple of good shots to make our Christmas card with.
It's gone...
I was so excited for the 4 days of "vacation" to get here and I swear they were all gone in the blink of an eye.
Thanksgiving was wonderful. We had the kids (minus Jo) and headed down to the country to see my parents. We left DFW around 11:30ish pm Wednesday nite as David was out of town and that was our only option for his return flight. There was hardly any traffic and the trip went quickly.
David got pulled over in Temple...but didn't get a ticket. In fact, he has never gotten a ticket since I've known him and he gets pulled over waaaayyy more than me. He doesn't speed tho. He usually rolls stops signs, doesn't signal, cuts of cops...oh yeah-he cut off a cop Wednesday (actually early Thursday morning) when he failed to yield to on coming traffic. Yep. I know the guy must have thought he was drunk or something. That is..until he flashed his bright flashlight into the eyes of our 5 sleeping children. At that point I think he was completely surprised to see that many kids in one car that belonged to one couple!! Not to mention that he conveniently flashes his military ID, and the cops always sees our military registration on the window, AND we have insurance thru USAA which reads...1stSgt Dyess on it. Honestly tho-since we are so close to Ft. Hood, I thought he would just write him a ticket anyway...but thankfully he didn't. Another reason to be thankful on Thanksgiving Day!!
The food was awesome as usual. I got to see my parents, all of my siblings and all of my nieces and nephews. The kids are at such fun ages now. Of course we still have Dayden(2) and Peyton(19mo) who have to be watched like hawks-but the others just go and play and do their cousin thing.
We came back Friday evening and spent the rest of the weekend just being with each other. Got the tree up, the mantel decorated and a few other things that needed some holiday cheer. We DID NOT go shopping. Mainly because we have too many people to coral in a crowd and I'm kinda fond of the kids so I didn't want any of them stolen before the holidays. Ask me after Christmas--I may be giving them away!!
All in all it was a great 4 days off. For now I'll have to settle for quiet evenings with the kids and a nice cozy fire. Oh, I forgot, my father in law bought me a ton of firewood, a rack to stack it on, and a tool set. He loves me!!
