Happy Thanksgiving week

We had a great time traveling to our "Gamble Family Christmas at Thanksgiving" in Georgetown at Mawmaw and Pawpaw's house. We missed Ashley and Eddie this year! Cara's first Thanksgiving was a fun one, although traveling got her good sleeping thrown off. Now that we're home, she's doing well. Enjoy the new pictures and videos I uploaded. Hope everyone is doing well!

More Videos

I posted some short (and one long) videos last night of Cara being cute and smiley. On the side of my blog there is a link to the dropshots.com page where you can see the most recently posted videos. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!

5 months old!!

Can you believe it? It has gone by so fast!!!! If I hadn't found my wonderful part time job, and I was going to go back to ConocoPhillips full time, today would be my first day! I can't imagine going back all day every day. Really, I seriously can't imagine it. She's getting big, I think she's about 18 pounds now. She's very talkative, and loves watching the puppies run around and play, they make her laugh. I have taken a lot of short little videos of her lately, I'll get around to posting those on dropshots.com soon. For the meantime, enjoy the new pictures and I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving!

It's been awhile!

Well, I just realized there's lots going on and I haven't posted in awhile. First of all, Eric's football team made the playoffs :( so one more week of marching band. Pray that they lose (for his sanity's sake) this Friday. Also, his jazz band is gearing up and has their big Senior Prom (at one of the senior citizen's homes near his school) this Thursday night, so they've been rehearsing a lot. Also pray for Eric, he's taking a half day today, he's feeling horrible, his throat is very sore and swollen.

Cara is getting so big, she'll be 5 months old on Monday. I've taken lots of new pictures, I will upload those tonight when I get home from work. Work, that's a whole other issue. I feel really led that I need to be at home with her (and our future babies) full time. We are doing everything we can to get to that point. We have also discovered Dave Ramsey and are working our Total Money Makeover. We have started selling things, when you start going through your house, you'd be surprised at home much 'stuff' you have that you don't even use, or LIKE! We sold my car and I downgraded to an older used car. We are hoping to sell Eric's truck as well. We may try to go to a different house, possibly in Katy, possibly not, this summer. We want a 4 bedroom, one story, but it doesn't have to be as big as our house. Just pray for God's direction. It's really been a burden on my heart lately. That, and I definitely want to stay home by the time we have our next baby, which we hope to be May or June 2008.

Anyways, that's the update. Matt and Bailey are back from Paris; they had a great time. Next week is Thanksgiving and we can't wait to see all the family again! Keep in touch!

PS, Congrats to our Baylor friends Kevin and Crissy Dazey on the birth of their son Sunday, Drew Christopher Dazey! He's a cutie.

Happy 75th Birthday Pawpaw!!

We just got back from Georgetown celebrating Pawpaw's 75th birthday! We had a great time visiting with Mawmaw, Pawpaw, Aunt Gail, Uncle Rob, Uncle Gerry, Aunt Patti, and Yaya. Pawpaw, you've made it a great 75 years, we look forward to many more!!
Love, Eric, Misty & Cara
