Happy Thanksgiving

This Thankgiving is our first with the boys and I can already tell the difference. It used to be a day where no worries were in our hands and we could eat, drink and watch football all day long and sleep when we felt like it. This year we are going to my cousin Rich and Marys place with about 17 people going to be there and we have the boys. If you think there will be time for us to hand the boys over to people and just relax, think again. They are starting to question who people are and get fussy if the mood isnt perfect. Luckily we'll be there all afternoon and evening and the boys will have time to warm up to people. It actually will be a great time and we are looking forward to it very much.

Hunting season has been a bit slow this year for me. I have gone 3 times and Friday will be my 4th time going. Rifle season opened last Saturday and my cousin Rich went with me out to our great secret of a place in Loudon County Virginia. He was able to get a nice looking 8pt. Buck. It was the first time I haven't seen a deer at that hunting spot. So bad luck for me on that one day. We plan to go back Friday and see if we can't get a couple that day. The one Rich got is at the Butcher and will be a sizeable amount of meat for the familly to dine on.

Here is a shot of the 8 Point Rich got:

Here is one of the Boys asking us, "What is that smell?".

We are still trying to sell the house. If you knwo anyone who is interested in a Townhouse in Reston, VA. Please let us know and give them this link.

We still have the place we want on contract with the contingency on selling our house. So we can be patient and let our house sell when it can.

The boyos are doing well. Caleb just popped out a nother 2 teeth and he is crawling, climbing and cruising everywhere. He is one mobile dude! Jackson on the other hand is content with hanging out playing and watching things happen.

Grandpa Blow comes to see us next week and Ill be taking some time off to be with him. We are really looking forward to him coming. As he is also very excited to see his little grandsons, and of course his only son and daughter.

All 4 of us will be going to South bend for 10 days over the Holidays and we are really looking forward to that. We always get to relax when we are back there and have a good time. This time should be a bit different with the boys but still great with Grandma and Grandpa Sears.

If I don't speak to you personally, have a great Thanksgiving and X-mas and New Years. This will be a special one for us and we have the Lord to thank for it. We have been blessed with a wonderful familly and 2 great little boys. Thank you , Thank you, Praise the Lord!
