December -OH MY

WHERE did July 4th go>  Oh yeah, I was getting ready to be married. BUT since then the time has just flown by.  My Sister in Law has opened up her very own upscale shop and is such a success.  I do still have house envy of your new home :))))))  Children grown and moving on with each of their lives.   Pete and I "practiciing retiring each week.  some weeks I really think he is gonna do it and then ......sigh ...well we are hoping after the first of the year, that he will cut back on the 3 days a week he works now   LOL. We so enjoy each others company and the time spent.  no matter where we are.

THANKSGIVING- what a wonderful word

Such a wonderful word full of promise and blessings and all of God's gifts to us all and a reminder of them.  This year brings thanks for Pete, my husband who  is full of love for all that I have and his family that loves me back.  Thank you Father for this precious man in my life.  We have been going to the lake quite a bit and I can actually say a few time I've "smoked" Pete at fishing - NOT OFTEN but I do have pictures :))))!!!  We will be spending Thanksgiving in Hurst and setting a new FAMILY tradition here of decorating the Christmas tree as a new family.  I love to have the tree up early and then down right after Christmas.  Then we started adding up all of our NEW FAMILY for Christmas presents.  Did I say I was blessed with all the new family?  I am :)) Pete got the whole HUGE family surprise the most . Gotta love me and all that comes with me!  He just got blessed with about 15 more people that he had ever expected to have. Added to this Rachel and the girls came up a few weeks back for the Nascar race and below are some pics.  Pete's first Nascar races and we had such a great time with Todd and Cherish on Friday and Rach, Christian and Faith on Sunday. Faith's man won the race which made it ultra cool

just random pictures of our NEW LIFE

Pete and I have spent the last several week-ends or if we could sneak off during the week at the Lake.  "Practicing Retiring"  we are REALLY starting to like it alot but it is not quite our turn but when it is we will be ready

FINALLY BACK !

Ok boys and girls- finally got everything back so I could update my blog. JEZZZ this TIME I wrote down my information so I could get back on without CRS and the password thing.

ANYWAY update from May. This wonderful man in this picture with me has now become my husband as of July 2010. What a wonderful life this has become. I have moved to Hurst Texas to be with my husband and everyone else is still in the Houston area. That part was hard to leave everyone but I DO SO love this man that the decision was not hard and had the full support of my family. I have also become a homemaker full time. Now THAT took some adjustments but I've about got the hang of keeping house, cooking for my man and being loved again. WOW. Pete and I have bought a travel trailer and moved it to the lake up here. WE both love to fish and Pete is "practicing" retiring so we go for a few days at a time "usually" every other week at least. We also just got back from Savannah- a delayed Honeymoon, Savannah is absolutely beautiful and when you see some of the pics, you can just tell we had a great time. Now that I've found where the heck the blog was lost at, THANKS ROBIN!!!! I'll be more faithful. Luv n hugs

Charlee and Pete
