December 28, 2008 - Both the kids flew here for Christmas
and we all had a great time. I'm sure Debbie will tell you ALL
about it so no sense in duplicating. I'll post some pictures
though.

December 16, 2008 - Looks like the family will be
together for Christmas. Danny & Stephanie both will be
flying here to Texas to be with us. We already knew Danny was
coming but Stephanie was finally able to get leave to come down.
The tickets are bought and both will be arriving next Tuesday.
Debbie will be cooking our "traditional" Christmas
dinner. The casita has a convection oven large enough for a 13
lb turkey so that should feed our crew. Bob & Nancy will be
joining us and she's bringing a ham so we should have plenty of
food.

December 14, 2008 - We went shopping yesterday to outfit
the new place with pots, pans etc. so we don't have to move
things from the motorhome to the casita. Lou (the current owner)
had his cleaning crew come in yesterday and get it ready for us
to move in. He is going to try to get his motorhome moved today,
he has battery problems so it may not happen till next week.
Wednesday we'll make a trip to the lawyers and get the deal
done. Lady was showing off so I thought I'd include her picture.

December 5, 2008 - We finally found a good pizza place.
Mama's Pizzeria on 10th Street in McAllen, TX. WOW. Almost the
best pizza I have ever eaten. Giordano's in Chicago is the only
one that beats it so far. Our new lot is rocked and a few
pictures are online here. We're set to close on the
17th of
December.

December 3, 2008 - Yep, I skipped November. We really
didn't do anything except live. Now for the next bit of news.
The lot behind us became available when the owner put in a
mobile home on the two lots next to us. He made us a good deal
on the old lot so we're buying it and we'll be renting our other
lot. It's a double size lot that DID have grass on it but the
owner got tired of the mowing and tore out the grass. The rock
will be done before we take ownership. It has a small casita on
the site and an extra storage shed. We will probably move over
to this lot week after next once we can get the closing done.
