Grandkids in Austin

It has been a very busy week. Larry worked at the cabin, Annette was keynoting in New Hampshire, flew home on Thursday. They flew back to Utah on Saturday, just before the big snow arrives, perhaps. We got in the car for Austin, at 11:20 a.m., and, with the football games on the radio, didn't stop until we arrived at the house in Austin just after 10:30 p.m., just after the end of the Texas victory!



Got this photo from Arrion this week... so cute!

It was a very good day! ;-)

It was a very good day! ;-)

Kaylee is a Longhorn

Arrion posted this photo on Facebook. Texas football was undefeated for the regular season, so Kaylee is celebrating.


Is she really just two years old?!? ;-)

About to have homemade pizza for supper, so...

It is a very good day! ;-)

Happy Thanksgiving 2009

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

We had a nice day at home with Annette, Larry and Allison here to help us celebrate the holiday. We had turkey, dressing and sweet potatos, etc. for dinner.



We played Tripoley as the Dallas Cowboys prevailed over the Oakland Raiders, as they were supposed to.



It was a very good day! ;-)

Larry's Birthday

Larry had his birthday, today. We went to Danna's in the middle of the afternoon for our "other meal" after special brunch Annette prepared late morning. We were at the "other" table this time, so the fire remnant is the other half from a lot of photos we have taken previously.
[Several years ago our favorite BBQ restaurant had a fire and burned down... the salvaged the two pieces of the sign, and rebuilt... better than ever.]

After our meal, they brought Larry his "birthday boy" special, with several spoons.

Back home, after a break, Larry opened his gifts, and then we played games before having his cake.


You may have guessed that Larry is not 36...


It was a very good day! ;-)

Donny Osmond wins

Donny Osmond actually won the Dancing with the Stars competition on ABC-TV on Tuesday night. He came on strong, towards the end of the competition, especially on Monday night. He looked like a real professional! BTW, at 51 he is the oldest winner in this competition by quite a few years....

We have followed all the Osmonds from the time they were on Andy Williams television show, have met them personally, seen them in many venues over the years. Just cannot help but cheer each success... their lives in the spotlight have not all been successes... Congratulations on another BIG WIN! ;-)

It was another very good day! ;-)
