Round Mountain + Hanukkah

 On Friday, we went to Round Mountain to get together with the Krasnow side of the family.  We had a nice time seeing everyone.  Here's a picture.


Yesterday, Morry and I ran some errands.  We went to Dick's Sporting Goods to get Wiffle balls for the boys for Hanukkah.   Then, we went to HEB to do our weekly shopping.

Yesterday afternoon Morry and I clean out his side of the garage and then took a lot of stuff over to Goodwill to donate.

Today, we dropped off Morry's car for an inspection.  

Then, we took a long walk from our house to Summer Moon coffee and back.    After that, we went back out to pick up Morry's car.

This afternoon Evan and some friends went to the mall to see a movie and shop for holiday gifts. 

For dinner, we ate at Kerbey Lane.

When we got home we celebrated the first night of Hanukkah.

Thanksgiving 2021

 We had a nice, small Thanksgiving gathering today.

At around 2:00pm, Aunt Sandy, Uncle Marvin, Joel, Marilyn, and our family met at Grandma and Papa's house for a Thanksgiving feast.

We had a nice time and all of the food was delicious.  

Here are some pictures from today.

The Rolling Stones

 Last night, for (probably the last) sponsored campaign for Cha Ching Queen, Morry and I were given tickets for The Rolling Stones.

It was an amazing concert.  Here are some pictures.

Since that last blog post, we've been busy with day-to-day things such as school, work, etc.  Evan's baseball has slowed down some.  He still has some practice and lessons.

The kids and I are on Thanksgiving break now.

High School Water Leak + Goodbye Boogey

 Yesterday was an eventful day.  There was a water leak at Evan's school.  Without access to running water, the school was crazy.  Kids were waiting in long lines to use only a few working restrooms and port-a-potties.  They eventually said kids could go home.  So, Evan got a ride to his friend's house.  I picked him up there later. 

Boogey went to his adoptive family yesterday.   They are a very nice family that we first met when Evan was an infant.  We had a playgroup together. 

Today, Bowie said the water was fixed and that everyone should come to school.   As Evan was on the bus on the way to school we saw an email saying there was another leak.  Many kids didn't even bother coming to school.

Evan went to two classes and then Morry picked him up to come back home.

Evan rode his bike to the park to meet a friend for frisbee golf in the afternoon. 

I had a busy afternoon of tutoring.

Morry took Evan to meet with a personal trainer and it went well.

When they got home, we had dinner and then I tutored again.

I just finished tutoring.

A Different Kind of Halloween

Morry and Evan went on a fishing trip and got back in the afternoon today. 

The kids decided a while ago that they would not dress up or trick or treat for Halloween.

Well, as soon as we started getting the first trick-or-treaters Evan decided to put on his batter's box costume.  

Marilyn stopped by for a little bit and sat in the driveway with us.

Then, Evan and Noah walked over to visit with Grandma and Papa.  On the way home, they picked up some candy from the tables set up outside in people's driveways.

While we were waiting for our pizza delivery from Dominos, the boys decided to do a little bit more trick-or-treating, but only to the driveways.  They did not ring any doorbells. 

We ate our pizza in our driveway while watching trick-or-treaters collect candy off of our table in the driveway.   

We had a bunch of trick-or-treaters and were worried about running out of candy.

When we finished our pizza, Morry, Chewie, Evan, and I walked around while Evan got candy from various driveways and porch bowls. 

Here are some pictures from today.
