Week's Half Gone!

We started this week at a run and it's still seems like it's going a hundred miles an hour! Sunday evening, we went to Jim and Laurie's house for dinner with our friends, Chuck and Vicki. We had so much fun, we didn't want the evening to end! Larry got to enjoy Jim's track, (which I think is going to be on his next Christmas List!) and we all enjoyed the wonderful dinner. It was hard to see the evening end, knowing we probably won't be together again until next summer.

This morning, we took Lydia and Joshua to the mall to have their portraits taken. It started out with Lydia refusing to have her picture taken, so we almost gave up. It wasn't until we were almost ready to leave the mall that we finally got her to cooperate enough to get some good pictures. I guess she's just at a difficult age for that sort of thing!

The weather here has been absolutely beautiful, so tonight we decided to go play golf at one of our favorite courses. Although we used to play here in the summer time, since we moved to Texas, I haven't played at all, partly because of the cost. Here it was only eight dollars for nine holes, as well as the most gorgeous surroundings you could hope to be in!

One major change that's happening right now is that Shelley, who has been living with Stacey for the last year, is planning to move out with some friends into their own apartment, so tonight she and one of her friends joined us for dinner to fill us in on what's going on. I don't think this is a bad thing, but it's going to be a big growing experience for all of them!

I just took this picture of all of them in Shelley's room discussing all the "arrangements"...it going to be a wild ride, I'm sure!
