Texas Roadhouse

So, I had lunch with the Unabomber.

Open House 2011

The other night the kids had Open House at the school. It is really not my favorite way to spend an evening. Parking is a nightmare, and I've seen the computer lab, library, and music room every year for 5 years. And every year I act like I've never seen it and ask the child leading the tour to show me around. Most of the evening is spent going to one of the children's classrooms while the other child complains and asks, "when are we going to my class?" And of course, Mac wants to catch up with every man, woman, child, and teacher he can find which gums up the whole process. What I actually do enjoy about the evening is getting to see the kids' projects and work. They are always so proud and so am I. I particularly liked this word problem Grey came up with.

You can take the boy out of Alabama, but you can't take Alabama out of the boy.

(Believe me I've tried.)

The Comeback Tour 2011

I am planning my Blog Comeback Tour, and it is going to be fabulous! Ok, it's really going to be more of the same, but since it's been awhile, it will seem fabulous. However at the moment I am in a holding pattern. Just circling the blog waiting for clearance to land and let loose with all those great posts. Hopefully, this will happen soon. My laptop of 5 years, which is like 95 in electronic years, gave it up a month or so ago. A couple of weeks later I got my new laptop. I felt like I was bringing a baby home from the hospital. All I needed was a baby blanket and a little hat to complete the moment. It works great. HOWEVER, getting all my backed up information, (my pictures being the only thing I really care about) onto the new computer has been challenging, to use a nice word. I have all the picture files but no pictures. So, I will be calling the service AGAIN, and waiting on hold AGAIN to see what the latest hangup is. I'm afraid the new computer might have some mechanical colic that will need to be addressed. So, until I can get all my pics and download the new ones from my camera, I probably won't be posting. Cause let's face it, you expect pics, not my random ramblings. In fact, I can't believe you've stuck with me this far in the post. I guess I should say thanks. So, thanks. And stay tuned, 'cause The Davis 4 Comeback Tour 2011 will be coming soon. (There might even be a T-shirt.)

Alabama Christmas 2010

A couple of days after Christmas we headed over to Fairhope, Al for some Banny and Pop time. We arrived to a dinner of chicken and dumplings and banana pudding. Grey was ready to permanently move in. We had a lot of fun. We arrived on Monday and left on Wednesday so we packed it in. We went to the beach, hung out at The Hangout, bowled a few ugly games of bowling, (We all could have used the bumpers.) and then played some card games at night. We had a great time! Me, Banny, Pop

Great grandparents and the great-grand-hoodlums


My red hair sake

No matter how cold, he always heads to the water.

Beautiful beach. We only found seashells, not a single tarball. Guess we can always get those in Galveston.

There's the Christmas Card for 2010.

If only I had it before Christmas, I could have used it.

Merry Christmas, anyway!
