Lots going on these days ... so we finally finished decorating for Christmas today - and got all of the boxes empty. Very happy about that - and appreciate everyone's help! Daddy did an extra super duper great job in fixing the lights- and of course, bagging the leaves that continue to fall in our yard. Victoria really did a great job in putting the Christmas decorations in the front!
Meanwhile - Ashley is moving out. She has been living with us since the summer and now that she has a great nursing job, and her own car - the next step was her own place - so she's moving into the big bad city of Houston. It's been great having her live with us - and we wish her well in her new adventures. No worries - I'm sure we'll see her plenty :) When she's not working anyway.
Other great news is the announcement of Caitlin's arrival. Who is Caitlin? Well - she is the fabulous foreign exchange student from Australia who will arrive December 26th. We've never had an exchange student from Australia before - so this will be awesome.
Last but never least- Victoria my dear - you played Cheshire Cat in your school play tonight 'Alice in Wonderland'. I think you were amazing. You did a fabulous job. You made your whole costume all by yourself. I love your creativity and your passion and how hard you worked on it all. Now you're going to try out for the Fort Bend Theater tomorrow- and I hope you get a part! Tuesday you get to do your band recital (Flute) - and that is exciting as well. You're so very talented - and I am so very proud!
Love, MAMA
