Hi Y'all! I'm trying desperately to keep up on this little old blog. I'm toying doing the photo a day December challenge, but maybe I'll tweak it so that it's not quite the same as last year. Riveting information, I know, ha!
October was a fun month, with Houston gracing us with gorgeous and slightly cooler temperatures. We purchased matching coats this fall, and actually got to break them out a time or two. Whoohoo! We celebrated Henry's birthday at the beginning of the month, with his main present being tickets for Monster Jam at NRG Stadium. He and Jon usually go to the Pit Party beforehand, where he gets to meet all the drivers.
Late in the month we tagged along with Jon to San Antonio while he attended meetings. While he was busy we went on a historic Mission Tour. Following the
Mission Trail, we started with the Alamo, in the center of town, and worked our way out of the city, seeing six Missions in all. We were there just a few days before Dia de los Muertos so and saw many
ofrendas at the Missions. Also along the way we stopped into Lulu's for one of her
famous three pound cinnamon rolls. While I was expecting this to be dry and cheap-y tasting, it was actually served fresh and warm and really very good! Jon surprised us with dinner reservations at the
Tower of the Americas, to celebrate our birthdays. While in SA we usually eat Texmex (duh), but this was really fun - and a little like being back in Seattle at the Space Needle, (except the landscape is a wee bit different ;)
We finished off October at a Ted Cruz rally, where we were so fortunate to get to hear President Trump speak. His energy and enthusiasm were off. the. charts. He spoke for almost TWO HOURS. That was a lot of fun, and definitely felt like a once in a lifetime experience.
Anyway, y'all, thanks for stopping by! Hope to be back soon!

What a fun month!! You guys are on a roll with really cool presidential experiences. That's awesome that you got to hear President Trump at a rally. It's amazing how many people come out to see him when he comes to town. He came to my parent's city and they got some fun Trump gear, but weren't able to get in to hear him. Love all the celebrations and that cinnamon makes me smile. My husband would be thrilled to get to try that!
Wow! You have a cool life my friend!
