Pic's of Casey and Callie's workplaces in Las Colinas

This is the view from Casey's 12th floor window! he can look out the corner and see Callie's building as well... how cool...




This is Casey's cubicle...









Casey is a Divisional Service Manager with General Motors... he has 47 Car Dealerships under him.. we are so proud!











This is the lobby of his building...
The pic below is the outside!



















This is Callie's cubicle and outside of her building...
















Callie is doing her internship with Hartman Leito & Bolt Accounting firm... She is studying for her Masters at UT Arlington.... We are so proud of her too... We had allot of fun shooting these pics with them...

ARLINGTON TRIP!

We just got back home after spending the day with Casey and Callie!



The afternoon started with a tour of their workplaces in Las Colinas... It is really weird, Callie had her job first with an accounting firm and Casey started a couple of months later with General Motors and each of their offices are only a couple of blocks apart...







Then it was off to the mall in Arlington, where we celebrated David and I 's 26Th with the kids at Cheesecake Factory... YUMMO!!! Then we hit the mall to do some Christmas Shopping... knocked a few off the list...



They wanted us to spend the night, however David wanted to get back so that we could get up in the morning and work on the house... Well, better head to bed will be getting up in a few hours...



Hugs to all in my world...Thanks for stopping by!

A DAY TO BE THANKFUL!


As this Thanksgiving draws to a close, I choose to reflect on all the good things in my life and not dwell on the disappointments of what could be better or with family and friends that have hurt me.


Without all of the battle scars that have lead me up to this time in my life, I believe, I could not enjoy, nor be thankful for all the good things, that God has blessed me with. My health, my 26 years of marriage as of today ( with all the rocky times too),my wonderful Son,who I adore! all my friends, present and most especially those I have recently reconnected with.


The kids are headed back to Arlington, the house is once more quite... Now it is back to work and prepping for MY FAVORITE HOLIDAYS OF THEM ALL....... CHRISTMAS!!!



My only wish from this time on, is to continue filling my life with as much happier times than sad, living up to my fullest potential, and just enjoying the road that God has laid out for me!


I hope all that reads my blog today, knows that I am thankful to know you and have you in my life, and also know that, without you being a part of my life, I would not be the person I am today..


I love each of you and hope to continue to be a part of your lives for a very long time to come! God Bless...


Hugs to all in my world... thanks for stopping by!
