Before we even knew I was going to have my bladder removed my brother called our mutual family members asking if they would like to come celebrate Thanksgiving at his and his wife's house near Dallas, Texas. After talking to various members it seemed like doing it earlier was the best for everyone for flights and schedules, so it was decided to have it 3 weeks before Thanksgiving day (so glad especially since my surgery ended up getting scheduled for the week before Thanksgiving!). So this past weekend was the weekend, and we had such a GREAT time!! We were all hoping to see a bunch of other members of the family, but only Tim and I and the kids and my aunt actually came, so I know Dan and I were a little disappointed about that. But we still had a wonderful time! He and his wife, Mercy, made an incredible feast as you can see in the pictures below!! SO yummy! Noah had said he didn't want to go and then the day before we left he changed his mind so he paid the difference in the ticket price and came along with us - so glad he did! Speaking of ticket prices, I had heard that if you go to the airport to purchase tickets for Spirit Airlines flights it is a lot cheaper than doing it online. Sure enough, back in September, Tim and I took a little drive to Tampa International and bought the tickets at the ticket counter for only $75 per person round trip!!! Online they were going to be over $100 per person! Definitely worth the drive! Here are some pictures we took while we were there. Saturday we had taken a walk around Los Colinas with their dog, Killer (as you can see by the picture what ferocious creature she is!), and we walked by the hotel I had stayed at on my very first business trip with IBM back around 1986! So the last picture below is of me standing in front of that hotel. Good memories and we made good memories this weekend!
