Wow, where has the time gone!

It's been awhile since I've updated my blog!  We had a visit from my parents (and I was bad and didn't take any pictures), spent time with the girls and Todd and I took them to "The Oasis" in Austin while they were here.  It was lots of fun and their visits always seem to go so quickly.

The current project we're working on is adding gates to the backyard so we can park the trailer there.  Currently it's sitting in the driveway, and we want to move it.  Unfortunately, our city has "ordinances" where trailers can be parked and the backyard is really the only place we can park it besides the driveway.  Originally we wanted to park it next to the garage, but it can't be within 6 feet of our property line.

Todd stopped at Home Depot on his way home from work on Saturday and got most of it set up.  This is what it looks like right now:

The chairs are around the concrete so that the deer don't bother it.  We still need to cut the post down to the right size and shorten the chain link, then we can move the trailer there!  It will be nice to get it out of the driveway!

Other than that, no major projects going on.  I'm still going through all the jewelry we brought home from IL.  We have a lot of nice costume jewelry, unfortunately most of it is silver and all mine is gold, so I can't really wear it.  I've been searching the internet looking to see if I can find values, but haven't had much luck.

Today is Veteran's Day, so please take the time to thank a veteran!  We're looking forward to our Son-In-Law to come home from Iraq in a couple of months.  They are going to come see us in January, so that will be nice.  I'm hoping we can get everyone together for a family picture while they are here.
