I drove down to Gainesville today to "do lunch" with my youngins. Officially, it was our Thanksgiving dinner together-although none of us had anything to eat even resembling a Thanksgiving Day meal and it was also a day early for Thanksgiving. However, that is how you do it in the "modern" world I live in. I actually enjoyed the experience very much. Although it was beautiful weather on the drive down...the drive back was long because of the fact it gets dark early these days... Lacey was my companion on the drive down and she could not have behaved better! She sat on the passenger side and just looked out the window or leaned her head against the head rest and looked at me. I did stop and get her some chicken nuggets for lunch and she seemed to enjoy them. On the way back, I got her a vanilla milkshake from McDonald's and she slurped that up in no time at all! She loves milk in all its forms-whipped cream, ice cream, milk and milkshakes...I guess that is why she is so pretty!
I love cell phones! I got to talk to all my siblings today on the drive back and that was neat...it also helped the time go by on the trip...Thanks for the companyCarol, Nance and Jimmy!
I also RSVPed the Mayor's office today. I received a letter yesterday inviting me to ride on the City Council float in the Christmas Parade next Saturday. He said they wanted to include me on the float cause of the work I did on the Moving Wall. I told him I appreciated the offer, but I was going to be walking with my History Club youngins. I can't believe this will be the 4th year we have done it...Maybe this year, people will know who we are when we pass by them! If any of you have nothing to do next Saturday...come join us...it's great exercise!!

I hate it we will miss the parade. We have got to go to the temple with the youth and for ourselves. No excuses this month! We do have a wagon youcan borrow if you need for anything.
I DO need a wagon!! Thanks!
I will always remember that I was talking to you on the phone while traveling down the interstate in St. Louis, Missouri trying to take pictures of the arch, drive and talking to you all at the same time.
