A weekend of firsts

Cameron saw her very first musical Friday night and it was amazing!!! She was in heaven. First row and Beauty and the Beast?? You guys did NOT disappoint!! Little Mermaid is coming in Feb and Mamy is taking her to see that. She's getting the tickets for Christmas and will die considering she hasn't stopped talking about it since the show. The Producers spoke briefly about it and Cameron was so excited!!























Brian signed a 3 year lease on a building in Plainview for a second dental office. Brian's plan is to eventually hire a full time dentist to run that office but for now, he will be traveling there 1-2 days/week. We named is West TX
Dental Associates. There are 5 dentists total for 25,000 people, clearly there's a need for one more. And, two of those dentists are retiring so we are very excited about this new venture of our life.
Billington Real Estate made quite a few improvements for us but there's still some work to be done. Here are a few pictures.

Some Christmas decor up BEFORE Thanksgiving. A huge first!!!! No still have some work to do but it's a start!!






Lacking my mantle decorations and stockings but it's getting there


Mom and I decided, after planning this long, extravagant menu last week, to just hit the road and go to Dallas for Thanksgiving. Just us four and the girls. Never done this before but maybe we won't miss sissy so much this way and I'm all for not cooking or cleaning up! We are leaving Thanksgiving morning and will come home Saturday evening. We have been asked to light the advent candle Sunday at church so we need to get back for that.

We hope you all have a wonderful Turkey Day. Hard to believe Christmas is a month away!!!!

Thanksgiving Feast

The girls had their Thanksgiving lunch at school this past Thursday and daddy got to go! I went the last two years but work prevented me from going this time. Love these two little stinkers so much it hurts.

Out with the old, in with the new!!

Since moving back to LBB I've gotten pretty involved with my sorority and am really enjoying it. KKG Pledge classes have doubled since I was there in 1997 so we are having to build a brand new lodge that will be about 8500 square feet. It is going to be gorgeous!!!

Before.....







We had a farewell last Sunday and we charged all alumnae and actives $5 to spray paint.




























After...,
















I drove by today and happened to come upon this. Kinda sad.

And...

The final product.

My Nixie

I hadn't gotten an update from Belle since August and with Nixie's birthday being last Friday I decided to check in.

I'd say Nixie is happier than ever and that makes me happier than ever.
