It's been just over a month since my last post, and there have been so many things going on since then. To name a few, football season ended in the first round of playoffs for Trent, Kristen and Jason are now engaged, Aggie football, a trip home for Thanksgiving, and now it's on to Christmas decorating and shopping!
-Football season ended with excitement as Granbury played at Floyd Casey Stadium (Baylor) in Waco. The boys had a great year, but we must admit that it has been so nice having Trent around a little more!! :)
-Kristen and Jason are ENGAGED! We are excited to add a new member to our family, and have already started the wedding planning process. We celebrated with cupcakes and Sparkling Apple Cider when we were all home for Thanksgiving.

-Although the weekend started off with me being sick, Trent and I were able to make a trip down to College Station for a Fightin' Texas Aggie football game!! We were SO EXCITED about going since we hadn't been to Kyle Field in two years! We met Trent's mom and my sisters, Kalyn and Kandace, there. We had a great weekend, and left with the win!! (Too bad it turn out the same for the t.u. game...)
-Thanksgiving came quickly and went by just the same. It was great to have a week off from school! Trent and I went to my family for Thanksgiving this year, and the weather was perfect. East Texas sure was gorgeous, with all of the green grass and trees of many different colors. As we were heading that way, I mentioned to Trent how a specific road we were on reminded me of what Tennessee would look like in the fall---and yes, Trent actually admitted that he thought it was pretty! :) We had a great time with my family, and I was so glad that the whole family was there.

-The Sunday we got back home, the Christmas decorations went up! :) I love this time of year! Pandora was playing Christmas music, Trent was taking care of putting together the tree, and I was decorating whatever I could with the decorations that we have! This year, the most exciting thing to put out was definitely the barbed wire tree that my brother in law, Keith, made for me! I couldn't wait to decorate it with colored lights and all of our "fun/not matching" ornaments. As of now, all but a couple of gifts have been purchased, Christmas cards have been ordered, and presents are beginning to collect under the tree.

Other than the normal schedule of life and enjoying time with friends in Granbury, that is what we have been up to lately. We have a lot of events planned for the next several weeks...I hope I will get better at posting more often! Until then...
