Thanksgiving day Homer's parents Rose Marie and Forest, his sisters Bonnie & Dena and Dena's family came to my house and I made a big feast. We had turkey, ham, brisquet, mashed potatoes, watergate salad, pea salad, green beans, corn, yeast rolls, dressing, relish tray, pecan pie, 2 apple pie, chocolate pie, pumpkin pie, banana pudding. We all had a great time.

On our way home from the movie.

The day before Thanksgiving I went to Fort Worth to take the boys to the movie so Tammie and Aunt Kristi make pies for Thanksgiving. I had so much fun with the boys. Mary had a great time, and so did Justin. The boys are so funny. We saw the movie Bolt, and it is really a good movie. Thank you Scott and Tammie for letting me spend the day with your precious little boys.

I am so proud. A face only a mom could love.

Our team on the field. We are on defense on this play.

We got our butts kicked tonight at the game. We had to drive all the way to Mansfield and sit in the cold to watch Lorena lose 49/14. At least we didn't get shut out. Carthage was waaaay better than us, and during the 1st half, our team played like the Detroit Lions, and during the 2nd half tried to play but it was too late. Justin played cymbals on the field and the bass drum in the stands. He was so proud of himself. I will post pictures as soon as I get Homer to put them in the computer. So now football is over, and now the holidays. Thanksgiving is next week, I will post pictures of my table and dinner. Homer's parents, Bonnie, Dena and her family are coming. I am so excited. The next Saturday Justin will be playing in the Lorena Holiday Parade. I will take pictures of that and post those.

Accapella

On Sunday, 11/16, Justin, Mary & I went to College Station to the A & M Church of Christ to see the best concert. Accapella. They ROCKED!!!! They were so good, and it was worth the trip. Stupid me forgot the camera. Figures. But it was great. They did a lot of older stuff and some new stuff. I got a new CD, and I love it. Justin put the songs I liked best on the ipod. Justin saw that they are going to be at Saginaw, November of next year. Can't wait to see them again. Maybe I will take the camera for that one.

Play off #1

Way to go Leopards!!!! We beat Palestine Westwood 24/14. There were some kids from Robinson, but they didn't have very good sportsmanship. They made some of the football moms mad and eventually they got escorted to the other side because they were rooting against Lorena. We play Carthage in Mansfield on Friday. GO LEOPARDS GO!!!!

Cheaper by the Dozen

Ha Ha Justin's in an apron.

This is Justin's first theatrical debut. This performance was on Tuesday night November 11th. It was a great performance. The kids really did a great job. It was comical and also dramatic.
Justin had several lines, and is suppose to sing a song in German. He said he gets stage fright and forgets the words.

La Vega Game

We went to La Vega and play with a passion and won 20/13. I didn't get to go because I was high on pain medicine because I had some dental surgery and was not able to drive. Since we won this game we go to the playoffs. We are 3rd in the district. (Still don't know how that happened.) We have had a great year.

We play Palestine Westwood on November 13th. Way to go Leopards!!!!!

We played Robinson on Halloween. We got creamed. 38/12. I don't know what happened with this game. Tyler Stewart our Quarterback threw several interceptions that ended up with scores. Robinson didn't do very well this year and they beat us. Still trying to figure that one out. Next week La Vaga.
