Roots

Where are they, how far do they go? Have you watered them lately? I suppose you could say that I am tending my garden and getting some nourishment as well. I am back home where the air is crisp this time of year, the wind still blows, the trees are turning, and where the morning 40’s are accompanied by the morning glories. It has been a great trip so far, however it is coming to an end. My trip has been full of sister time, relax time, and pumpkin hunting at the pumpkin patch time. — I love going to my sister’s house because it is a home and I feel welcome, not to mention it is super cute and quaint and they have the best bathtub ever…complete with a Jacuzzi. Then we drove from to my hometown, Great Bend. We made it just in time to catch the last half of the Friday night football game where we played our arch rival…and won!! thanks for winning for me boys…A place that only in Kansas would you witness the half time dance line performance being interjected by guys in banana costumes dancing and being chased off the field and over a fence by the activities director. We capped off the evening with a late dinner around the fire pit. Woke up to a great morning of cuddle time on the couch, swinging in the hammock, and homemade pumpkin waffles. Then off for a photo shoot with Debi Deustch from Cornerstone interiors, it was great to see you Debi! An audios to mi hermana, and an hola mi abuela…one day, if I have a daughter I hope to name her after my grandma Marshall; I love her name, Leila June, (Lee-i-la…long i, soft a) she is a crack up and I love her soo much!!! Not only is she just super freekin cool but she knocked my socks off with her impeccable modeling skills! Thanks gran you rocked the washing machine J To top off the night we went to the best Vietnamese restaurant in the world, Classic Inn, this is also the place where my dad proposed to my mom, 25 years and counting! After all of the festivities so far, as if it couldn’t get any better my mom made apple crisp!!! I woke up and this morning and had another great cuddle time with my momma and some bonding time with my other sister (mocha, our oldest boxer, she is most definitely a member of the family) and a delightful breakfast props to my gran for making walnut peach coffee cake and of course a cup of chai tea just made the morning perfect.p.s. I also took my sister and brother-in-law’s Christmas photos. They are super funny; you can only imagine how much fun we had that night by looking at the photos. I can’t wait to get my card in the mail!
