My Blessings

I'm constantly talking about how time goes by so fast in my life. I began my week on Sunday by enjoying my day off, going to my friends 2ND baby shower, then going to my parents house to watch the Dallas Cowboy game, and the MTV awards.
Little did any of us know at the baby shower that we would be spending the last moments of a family member dear to many hearts. One of my friends grandma's passed away on Sunday night. Yes, very unexpected. I'm glad I had my camera that day. I filmed and shot pictures, as we all were listening to this women talk to another women she just met, of her days growing up in Texas.
I'm reminded of my life and all the blessings I have. Moments before the funeral began, I was sitting in the church, looking up at a screen filled w/memories captured thru a camera lins. The message I got from seeing all these pictures is how important family was to this lady.

I ended the week by going to Grapefest in Grapevine, which was OK. We were very warm, and did not even taste any wine. I think I enjoy Octoberfest much more.

I'm blessed with:
  • Friends and family
  • Music-my flute
  • Traveling the world
  • My husband which supports me and is my traveling buddy!

I recommend to all, to take a minute and think of or write down your blessings.

I like Pumpkins

I walked into the store yesterday, and saw a box of little pumpkins. I also bought a glass one to set by the bed, and on sale; $1.49!!

I've always liked "pumkins" as I call them. I enjoy seeing them all throughout neighborhoods, city downtown's like Grapevine and a little touch around the house.



We have only a couple of weeks until our annual trip to Fredericksburg Octoberfest. I enjoy the drive because you can see the tree leaves turning vibrant orange and red. Another reason I enjoy going is to get out of the rush, rush, big city life for a weekend. My dad has taken us out to the "TX country" since I can remember. My favorite part was no TV, so my sisters and I explored the country side.

So, I recommend a weekend getaway deep in the heart of Texas. You will come back relaxed, and with another great memory to keep forever.
