The holidays are here
Ever notice how the holidays come faster and faster as soon as Halloween passes? It seems like Halloween was just a few days ago, and already Thanksgiving has come and gone.
Luke, Andy and I have been enjoying the cooler, wetter weather by gardening and exploring Austin. Not too long ago, Andy and Luke when on a campinng trip with other kids from his class and their dads. They had a great time, but I was happy when they came home.
We spent Thanksgiving here in Austin with friends. In the morning, we headed downtown and I ran with my friend in the 5 mile Turkey Trot -- an Austin tradition! It was great! Later that evening, two other families and their boys, who are both around Luke's age, feasted with us, and we had a ball.

The weeks leading up to Christmas promise to be busy with more gatherings and preparations for the upcoming holidays. We may have our first blast of arctic air in early December, and we're busy winterizing our house and garden. I'm so grateful the cold air has managed to hold off this long.
Best,
Cindy
