Well, our house in Del Rio is emptied. (Thanks Logan for all your help!) It just needs someone to fall in love with it the way we did 5 years ago. It's been on the market now for about 7 months. I will miss it. We have a lot of good memories in that house. (Bringing Caden home from the hospital and having get togethers with our friends.) Mostly, I'll miss my friends though. I had some really special ones there. My kids miss their kids too. Caden is still saying he's "gotta marry Lara." She's 2 by the way :o) Connor, of course, misses his 1st love Kasia. They were so sweet together. I hope they can meet back up in the future. Oh when I stop to think about what we left behind I start to get a lump in throat. I have a hard time with change. It takes me a while to adjust and make new friends. I'm working on it though.
I have been trying to get involved with my Sunday school class. There are some really cool ladies in there I hope to get to know better. One of them gave me a heads up about some job openings at our church's preschool. I have an interview there next week. Wish me luck on that! It would be an ideal place for me to work and it's only 2 days a week.
I've been Christmas shopping like crazy. With Landon gone to South Carolina for most of the month I've been free to shop away. I've dragged poor Caden all over the countryside looking for those "perfect gifts" for everyone. I mailed Christmas cards today and just need to get all this stuff wrapped. I hate wrapping presents. I'm so bad and slow at it. Oh well, I'll be happy when it's done and they are under my itty bitty tree :o)
My Dad, Stepmom and Little brother Caleb came up this last weekend. We had so much fun. It had been since Caden was born that they had been able to visit us. WE looked at Christmas lights, painted some ceremic ornaments, shopped and ate some good food. If you are ever in OKC try "Toby Keith's I love this bar and grill". It's really yummy! I suggest the chicken fried chicken or the chicken quesidillas.

We are headed to WF this weekend to celebrate my brother, Toby's , birthday and do our Christmas. I'm looking forward to some more family time. It's pretty quiet and lonely here without my hubby :o( We have a week and a half till he gets back. I think I'll make it.
Ok, I guess that is all I have to ramble about for now. I'll add some pics to make it a little more interesting. Hope everyone is enoying the holiday season. Drop me a line and let me know how you are! Take care!
