Life's adventures

Time seems to always get past me. I never seem to have find the time to update this blog. So it is Sunday afternoon and Austin and Andrew are both taking a nap. I figured it was time I updated you on our comings and going, which are not much.

My little boy (no so little any more) he loving to play trains and to be a train himself. He loves to go out in the snow and pretend to be a train's engine and make tracks in the snow. It does not take the expensive toys to make this little boy happy.

There is not much to up date you on, but Halloween came and went. Austin was an astronaut for Halloween (thanks to Aunt Debbie who had the costume and saved me some money). Sorry to any family members we missed. By the time we got to Grams and Papa's house Austin was sound asleep so we decided to just bring him home and let him sleep. He did go out the the neighbor girls later the night and came home with a bunch of candy, which most of it is still in the candy bowl.

Thanksgiving we had our big feast with Andrew's sister and some of her married children. It was very quiet.

Now as we have been preparing for the Christmas season it has been fun to watch Austin finally grasp the concept. He has been so excited. He has helped Aunt Debbie, Grams, and Grandma Barker decorate their trees and of course we cannot forgot our very own tree that has be decorated and then things moved how many times I do not know. The excitement in his face as one more decoration is put out or as he drives by and sees all the Christmas lights. To see the Joy in a child's face. It has been fun and exciting. I hope that through this Christmas time that we are able to convey to Austin the True Meaning of Christmas. May you all have a hopeful and joyful HOLIDAY SEASON!
