Turkey day is fast approaching!

We are leaving for Mississippi tomorrow. The boys are going to stay home and take care of the dogs. Ethan has basketball practice this weekend. The season starts next week. Wyatt's friend Ray (another one of the boys that show up here and call me Mom) is home from the Marine Corp. We had dinner for him and whomever else wanted to be here. We ended up with Keaton, Wyatt, Ray, Ethan, Danika, Ashlee and Jackie. I got to see Ashlee's baby bump. I'm SO excited and ready for Carson Cole to be here.
Clint had a job interview this afternoon. I haven't heard from him yet so I'm hoping it is good news. He's trying to not get discouraged, but it has been hard.
Mom and Daddy left for the valley yesterday. I'm already ready for them to come home for Christmas:) Beth talked to them today and they were headed into San Antonio for dinner. We always eat at the same restaurant on the river walk when we're there. The best Mexican food ever!
Remember our family in your prayers during the next few weeks. The holidays are always hard since we lost Corey. Also, this is Jan & Paul's family's first holiday season since Bill past away last December. I can't believe it has been almost 4 years since I got to rub Corey's buzzed hair.
Ok, non-sad thoughts: The bedlam games are this weekend. We will be at the Ole Miss/Mississippi State game on Friday night. Of course, there is a chance of rain. It ALWAYS rains when I'm in MS and usually during the Egg Bowl. The OU/OSU game should be really good too. I hope we are home in time on Saturday to see it.
I took Lance to the kennel while we are gone. I HATE to leave him. He does fine, I'm the one who fights tears. Good grief, how awful is it going to be when I don't see Carson Cole for a few days? Yikes!
