Appreciation week

This week has been our Apprecation week. Our compnay has a National Customer Service week, yet no other department celebrates. So my director thought it would be good to have one.

So here are the shirts that I helped design. The back for me and Cynthia have GPS, for Group Practice Specialist. Others say Recruiting or Credentialing.... and so forth. The front says "Property of (name of company) XXL Network Development." I don't put the name of the company anymore b/c I think the company has a filter to have things pop up with the name when used on internet (make sense). So I don't use the name anymore. Just a little tid bit.

Here are just a few people I work with.

Family time

Friday night was Eric, my step brother's bday dinner. He turned the big 30! The 8 of us, went to dinner at Geisha Grill, without "our" kids. It was a good time. Erin is due with her twins in Jan, maybe Dec... who really knows. We wish her and Scott lots of luck!

Ryan, Hay and I went to Memas last night. Heather and Josh wanted to go see Uncle Neil (in the hospital still), so I told her we would watch Coop for her. Ryan and Cooper played all night. Mema said that she loved just sitting back and watching them play. And play they did...........

Pumpkin Patch

Saturday, Phillip, Ryan and I went to a pumpkin patch in Frisco. We went with a friend of Ryan's from daycare, Ariana. Of course her parents Jeff and Katie were there too. We had a good time.

Ryan has her "I'm just here for the candy" shirt on. The poor bow didn't stay on all day! Boy does she love to smile~

Hayley's New Apt!

Ryan and I went to Hayley's new place last night. She cooked dinner, we played, and then went home. Ryan played in her boxes, stood up every chance she got and had a really good time.

Hayley has very creative and good taste. She doesn't have everything b/c she just moved in. So here is how the place looks now. I will take pictures once she gets everything up and unpacked.

The last picture is this morning. Ryan has on her little blue jean jacket.

What a weekend. It started on Friday with her Fall Fest. I went up to her daycare, ate a bit, talked to "my friends" (yes, I have made quite a few) and then got Ryan dressed in her pretty little dress. There was a photo contest that I was excited about. I get to play dress up with my little girl. So I got her in the dress, shoes and put her bow in all to sit her down for about 3 pictures.

"That's it?? 3 pictures?? You have to be kidding me~" Oh well. I went home and had my own little photo shoot. Nana got her a little stuffed puppy a few weeks ago. She loves to bite him. Aunt Hay Hay named him Hulk b/c when Ryan would play with the puppy, she would do her "Ryan" AHHHHHHHHHH sound. So Hulk it is!!!

Then Saturday was TX/OU so we all got dressed in our TX gear and headed out for breakfast and couch shopping. We came home to find Hayley still sitting on the couch. She was suppose to have movers come and help her move. They didn't write the order down so they never showed. We watched part of the TX game and then went to my moms. The Sunday (after the lunch below) her siblings and friends moved her in. She is all set now!!

Sunday was filled with Orange, Orange, and more Orange. We never got to go to lunch for PawPaw's (Frankie's) bday, so we went to Applebee's with everyone. He is a major TX fan, so we all dressed in orange. Mason AND Izzie were there too. I got to hold that little girl. She and Ryan had the same cheerleading outfit on. Thanks Pretty Granma!!!!

Now picture time at Applebee's was an event in itself. Two great grandmothers, a toddler and two infants....pictures = no one looking up at the exact same time.

























































What a WEEKEND!!! And we're out...................
