Vacation/Thankful

I officially have a week of vacation this week. I love my job and all, but I was in need of a break! 9 DAYS whooo! My dad came and got Houston Saturday morning and they spent the whole day together while I went shopping. When I picked him up, dad had gotten Houston another pony. What? He never spoiled me like that! Houston named him Diego and they rode all day. Houston told me they went to McDonalds and played and played outside and it was the best day of his life! AW, I was so proud of dad. So we went home and Tim had loaded a bunch a junk stuff from the barn on the trailer and we went to the auction. We drew numbers and were seller number 6, which is not bad. Last time we were #12 and didn't get home until 1 am. We sold everything from 9-930 and made almost $300. WOW! I am telling ya, it was junk! We had some furniture we wanted to sell, so we talked to a family that owns a store in Brownsville and they followed us to our house at 10pm and bought our furniture for $70 !Christmas CASH!! No, really we put it all into Houston's bank account. Every time we have a garage sale or something, we always donate it to lil Hou Boo. Before the auction even started good, Houston was wanting his Paw. So I called dad and luckily he came and picked Houston up, they headed to the airport to pick up mom and he spent the night. She was so surprised to see him. She has been in Arizona for a week visiting my grandma. We were all suppose to fly out this week, but her boss wouldn't let her off so she had to go alone:(. Yesterday, I went to get Houston and we headed to a friend's birthday party at Gymstars. It was so much fun and Houston loved it! Today we are headed to Incredible Pizza to play. Tim is actually off work this week too and that never happens. He works all the time, so it was great when he woke up and surprised us with breakfast. Anyway, gotta go, but since Thanksgiving is this week, I wanted to share what I am thankful for.
-My family
-God and my church home
-My friends
- My house and vehicle
-My job
THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOR ALL THESE BLESSINGS!

  1. That's such a great idea to put all that money away for Houston. It will add up quick and he's gonna need it!! Hope your enjoying your break! I know I am so far! I shopped all day and will probably go back again tomorrow. I'm trying to get mostly done before the mad rush!
