I better post about Thanksgiving before Christmas arrives.....time is flying!
We drove to Lake LBJ on Thursday (Thanksgiving day) morning. DiDi and Grandad were there already with a yummy lunch prepared. My mom volunteered to babysit while David and I went to the Texas vs TCU game. It was also very kind of Stacy to let her babysit since it was his birthday that day. We met my dad and Michelle at the game and sat with them. Unfortunately, it was a loss for the Longhorns and a win for the Frogs. David was happy. On Friday we just hung around the house while the guys played golf. Meredith, Caroline and Toby came by for a visit. It was our first time to meet Toby (born in early September). Austin said "Toby like Toby in Thomas the train", (there is a train named Toby). We visited my dad and Michelle at their house in the late afternoon and then headed into Marble Falls to eat dinner. After dinner we attempted to go to the Trail of Lights but Austin whined and cried and wouldn't get out of the car. He knew Santa was there and was scared. So we didn't push it for the first "Santa" encounter this season. There would be more..... On Saturday we headed back to Houston after a stop at the Calhouns to meet baby Kase (only 3 weeks old at the time). Sadly, I didn't take any pictures. We celebrated Stacy's birthday in Houston on Saturday. Finally, on Sunday we had a late Thanksgiving get together at MiMi and Big Deal's house. It was a fun few days with lots of family and football, and of course chasing the boys around. We are thankful!!!

Puffs in the car on the way to the lake - anything to keep this active boy happy. Being trapped in a carseat is no fun! |

Austin looks incredibly bored with all these "babies". Really he was so sweet with Caroline (will be 2 in December) |
