Wowzer it has been a while! We have had a really busy past month or so. Soooo many fun trip and events! I am just going to make a list and include some slide shows to "sum it all up". Wish I was better at the journal documentations but it is just so hard for me to with all these young kids! I can;t quite focus long enough:) I am finally reading the Twilight series right now. I love it st as much as everyone else which took me off guard! You could say I was a tad on the obsessive side of it now....can't wait for New Moon to come out next week! SO here is what has been going on here...October included my frist and second trip to Chicago! It's officially one of my favorite places now! I LOVE it there! The first trip was with Josh through work and it was fabulous! The second trip was the very next week and it was to see an Oprah show taping! So just as fabulous! WE also of course had Halloween in OCt. and the family (along with several other families at our friends Halloween party) went with the Star Wars them. It was very cute and the party was lots of fun! The first part of Nov. has been pretty eventful as well. Last weekend we went to Dallas for Teresa's wedding and then to Shreveport for The LOPA donor- Recipient picnic at the LA State Fair. We were able to meet Lewis and his family, the recipient of Brande's liver. Brande is on the front page of LOPA's website as the spotlight hero for Nov. which is fitting b/c she would have celebrated her 20th bday Nov. 3. Here is the link to check that out http://www.lopa.org/ and the Sherry occasionally updates the Brande's Update link on my blog. After the fair we headed back to Dallas for my little Grace's christening on Sunday. What a blessing! The excitement continued on this week when on Wed. I got a call from Josh to inform me he had been promoted! He is the new Vice President of Product Management for GVTC! I am sooooo proud of that unbelievable man! What blessings. Now for the sideshows
