Already Slacking...

So I understand that I am already slacking on the whole blog thing.

I apologize.

We just really haven't been doing too terribly much.

So this week is the week before Thanksgiving! Next week we will be in Colorado Springs, CO catching up with great friends, taking in the beauty of Colorado (My most favorite place in the world, thus far!) and eating some delicious food!

We will be eating with our dear friends Ben and Karen Blaney, who are from the U.K. originally. They belong to a U.K. club in Colorado Springs, and are having several people over in addition to us, to celebrate with! We are bringing stuffing (Grandma's homemade Recipe!) creamed peas (Holiday Staple at my house!), and a couple of pies! I can't wait! I think its going to be a great trip, and a great way to recharge our batteries from this difficult year.

We are also going to Florida after Christmas to spend New Years with Nana and Grandpa in Naples!

Going to visit Naples is always so enjoyable and relaxing for us. The weather is beautiful all year, the shopping is great, and nothing beats Nana's cooking. Nothing. :) I am also excited because the whole (immediate) Wright Family will be going! Big Dallas, Dylan, Dallas and Me! Christmas will be spent in Houston with our families together, and overall I think its going to be a great Holiday season, I really have so much to be thankful for.

This week is also going to be Dallas' "Dollar Ride" in the T-38! I am excited!

...and nervous.

Those things go a lot faster than the T-6, and are alot older! They were built in the mid 1960's. Before we were even thought of and before technology was as advanced as it is today.

He should be getting his first ride on Wednesday or Thursday. I'll try to keep everyone posted!

Also coming up is Hanukkah.
The 8 crazy nights begin on 1 December and lasts until 9 December.
I got our Menorah out, and the Christmas Decorations are making their way out as well! I am going to attempt to make Potatoe Pancakes for D-Man! :) I love the Holiday Season.

Also in blog-worthy news:

How Bout Them Aggies!!

They definitely picked this season up from the dissapointing losses in the beginning. I think watching the game against t.u. will be a nice way to spend the turkey-induced coma on the couch-snuggled up in Colorado!! Oh and the Fightin' Texas Aggies are now Ranked! (Let's face it, its been a while....) :)

Also- I just finished Eat, Pray, Love.

Such a great book. I really enjoyed it.

The next book I am going on to is George W. Bush's Memoir- Decision Points.
I have such an interest in this man and his thoughts and feelings while some of the most historical moments of our time took place. That, and he's a Texan! :) Who doesn't love and miss George W? :)

This past weekend was fun! We had dinner with some great friends on Friday, traveled to Oklahoma City with them on Saturday, and had dinner with the Riley's and the Evan's Saturday evening in the City! We are also planning on taking our Holiday Photos this week for our Christmas Card!

That's all I have for now! Have a great Monday!

XOXO,
Megan
