Nothin' much to say

We're laying low over here at the Lyon casa. No reason why, just no exciting news to post. Fall is here in central Texas - it's 75 during the day and 35 at night - we've had some rain here and there and we should have our first freeze in a few weeks.

Next week we are headed to Plano, TX for Thanksgiving. I am salivating just thinking about Marie's cooking. Mmmm. Also, I can't believe it's turkey-day already! Yikes! Where has this year gone? A friend and I have our first (and I hope my last) Christmas shopping day planned for this Saturday. I've got my list and I am sticking to it! I do not like shopping after Thanksgiving for Christmas - the stores are ridiculously packed, lots of people are rude and uptight and I can't deal with the pressure of last minute shopping. Wish us luck.

Here are some pictures from Blaine's post-dinner-pre-bedtime-play yesterday (don't mind the sauce on his face...)

This last picture is of Blaine doing "roses, roses". You know... "Ring a Ring o' Roses" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_a_Ring_o). He sings it all the time (but only the "Ashes, Ashes - we all fall down!" part). He turns in a circle and then falls on the ground and laughs at himself.

You'll also notice he has pajamas on... and his new favorite shoes: camouflage Crocs! Apparently, they go with everything :)
