Thanksgiving
Molly, Darryl, and I had a relaxing Thanksgiving--just the three of us!
Molly always loves the cranberry jelly!
Darryl did the turkey, and it was fabulous!Spurs Game
Molly's teacher nominated her for a Tim Duncan Character Award. She got 2 Spurs' tickets, a shirt, and a certificate. The seats were high-up, of course, so we actually ended up sitting in a different area. The Spurs won, and we had a great time!Camping
Molly and I met up with Carolyn and her Molly and Cynthia and Miriam for a girls' camping weekend in Rusk, Texas. We had so much fun!
We camped at the Texas State Railroad campgrounds and enjoyed seeing the old steam engine.
Of course we had to have s'mores!
The scenery was awesome!
Molly and Miriam caught frogs by the lake.End of Season Picnic
Molly's team finished the season with 2 ties and the rest wins--no losses!Halloween
Molly was a very cute Indian (excuse me, Native American) for Halloween.
Showing off one of our jack-o-lanterns.
I was very proud of my "welcome" jack-o-lantern.
Darryl made his pumpkin into a Dallas Cowboys' football helmet. It was very cool with stars on the sides and everything. We got him to put it on for pictures!

The multiage classes at school have a fall and spring dinner celebration where families bring their own dinner to eat together and then each class presents something they have been learning about in school. Here is Molly with some of her friends from school.

Each 9 weeks, two students from each class are nominated for the "Super Citizen Award" at school. We have a breakfast for the kids and their families and the principal and counselor present certificates to the kids. Here's Molly with our principal.

My friend, Valorie, and I in front of our freshman dorm at Baylor. She now lives in Memphis so it was fun to meet up over homecoming weekend in late October.
