Thanksgiving
Hey everyone. What a wonderful Thanksgiving we had. We got to share our day with our wonderful family!!!! Chelsea, Mom, Dad, Bill, Linda, Katelyn and Alex came on Wednesday. My kids got to help Nana and Papa bake pies. Thursday we cooked and got ready for our turkey dinner. Sally, Mrs. Colwell and Aunt Francis came over with more food and we all sat down for a fabulous meal. It was so nice to share Thanksgiving dinner with everyone. I looked around and realized how blessed I was. I not only was born into a great family, but I married into one as well. Elaine and Cooper joined us that evening just in time to watch Texas whoop up on ATM. Chelsea was not very happy, but the rest of us were. Sorry, Chelsea. The rest of the weekend was spent visiting and watching movies. It was just awesome. Hope yours was just as wonderful!!!

Hello from the Colwell's. My hope in creating this blog is to let you know how our family is doing. I would also like for others to create blogs so that we can keep up with your family as well. Let me know if you have a blog so that I can subscribe to you and keep in touch better.
John and I are doing great! John continues to work in the oil business which is not always a fun job. He enjoys hunting (which is where he is now) . He enjoys getting to spend time with the boys outdoors in the hill country. He also enjoys buying and selling different types of power wagons and jeeps. You will have to visit his website to see just how much he loves this hobby. http://www.vintagemilitarytrucks.com/
