Thanksgiving 2010

We hope everyone had a happy turkey day! We had a great time! Tyson's parents came into town for Thanksgiving, and even my parents were able to join. Usually both my step mom and my dad have to work. My step mom was able to get off from work, and my dad was able to leave work early, so it was a treat to have them for Thanksgiving this year. Like I promised.....PICTURES! This will sum up our day...


What do you normally see during the Thanksgiving day...???...



All of the ladies in the kitchen getting everything all cooked and ready to eat! Some company/people donated a bunch of Honey Baked Hams to the police department, so we got a HUGE one for free!



While the boys sat on the couch and watched T.V. and football all day. What would be Thanksgiving without a little football?!




It's turkey time! Tyson carving up the turkey!




Everyone in the kitchen happy, laughing, and smiling!



Here's Hugh and Nancy!




Tyson and his mom take one!




Tyson and mama take two! We got the giggles out.




♥ Hubby and wifey! ♥




My brother, daddy, and me!




The first time my dad got to FINALLY see my new car. He had to sit in it. ;) I don't blame him. It's a pretty nice ride if I do say so myself.





After dinner, Tyson's family always helps us set up the Christmas tree! No one could get pie until the Christmas tree was set up. ;) That was our motivation to get it finished quickly.


Me pulling the branches apart.




Hugh putting on the final touches with separating the tree branches.




My hand got in the way of the flash, but that is Hugh sticking his tongue out at me. haha!!!



After we were all fat and happy with our bellies full, we all sat to watch the UT VS A&M game. UT lost, and I was bummed.....we were ALL bummed!


Precious had NOT had a nap ALLLLL day due to all of the hustle and bustle. Too many interesting things were going on. My stepmom snapped a shot of all of us watching the game while my dog fought to keep her eyes open.



Precious had a happy, busy Thanksgiving day as well.

And that's all folks! We hope everyone had a very happy Thanksgiving and stuffed themselves with all kinds of Thanksgiving goodies. I know I stuffed myself to the miserable point. ;) But! It was a happy miserable. ;) About an hour after dinner and 4 different pies.....Tyson went back for second helpings of pie. I don't know where it all goes.

Just a Short, Little Blog

Nothing new. Just quickly updating since it has been a while. Work is going well for both Tyson and me. Tyson's keeping busy with both work and school. He's almost finished with his first semester and all ready having to register for next. By this summer he should have his associate's then it's on to focus on the bachelor's.

As for me, work has been high stress. I have a handful of academically low kiddos that are a challenge for me. It's certainly keeping me on my toes, but I'm certainly ready for Thanksgiving Break to get here so I can regroup. I'm TIRED and shutting down! TWO MORE WEEKS! And here's the treat.....I get a full week off for Thanksgiving!!! This has just started this school year. We used to only get 3 days.

Speaking of Thanksgiving....this will be our first Thanksgiving in our brand new house! Tyson's parents are coming into town to spend Thanksgiving with us. It's sort of become a tradition that we do Thanksgivings, and I rather like it! We're looking forward to seeing and spending time with Hugh and Nancy. Pictures to come! ;)

Megan, TJ, Britain, and Brody (Tyson's sister, bro-in-law, and our niece and nephew) came in this past weekend. Lady Antebellum came into The Woodlands, so Meg and TJ came into town for that, had a little date night, and we watched the kiddos. Britain and Brody are a hoot and are definitely not shy. LOVE IT!!! It was fun to see Tyson interact with them at times. Watching Tyson's patience get tested while Brody got on the couch, off the couch, on the couch, off the couch, on the couch, off the couch.....(you get the idea) was quite comical in itself, but Tyson was such a good uncle and played so well with both Britain and Brody. It was a really short visit, so hopefully we will get to spend more quality time with them in the near future. We're planning on making a trip up to San Antonio for Christmas, but, how many days??? We don't know.... That all depends on Tyson's work schedule.

Anyways........I said just a short, little blog. Was this short??? ;)
