A bit of sad news to pass on to the family

It is with a broken and sad heart that I share the news; Veronica's mom passed away last night. Mrs. Moreno got sick and went to the hospital 2 weeks ago and every day her condition got worse until last night she finally passed away. Scott would like Veronica to rest this morning, she did not get home until 4:30 this morning and will spend the afternoon with her family. If you would like to send Veronica a card feel free to call me and I'll be glad to give you their address. Communicating on and with computer will not work as their computer has just broken down.

Elvia

What's New in November?

It's been a while since we had a new post so I decided to pose this title question.  "What's new?"  Also, what are your plans for Thanksgiving?  Any new traditions?  Is there anyone out there who is going to burn down their hou, er, I mean, deep fry a turkey? 

And have you seen this video of this crazy trick play in football? 

Also remember to check out the Movember website set up by Juan

Movember

I wanted to share an important link with people.  Juan started a Movember team and is trying to raise some money for this great cause.  Movember encourages men to grow a  moustache throughout the month of November to raise awareness about, and fight against Prostate cancer.  Take a couple minutes to visit his page by clicking the above link and think about donating while you're there.

Random Question of the Month

For October I decided to mix it up a little bit.  This will be somewhat random and somewhat no-so-random?
Either way, give us your answers and have a great month.


What are you or your kids going to be for Halloween this year?

What do you think about Google's self driving cars?

What was the last thing that made you laugh really hard?

Oh Babies!!

I just wanted to post an update here about two babies that the family is expecting early next year.  David and Heather are expecting a baby girl.  Danielle and Kevin are expecting their first -- a boy!  Danielle and Kevin have already picked out a name, but I haven't heard if the Grimsley's have chosen one yet.  If you need help picking out names you can always ask me for suggestions.  I'm also very good at ruining perfectly good names that people pick out for their children, just in case one of you comes up with a name the other doesn't like. 

Also don't forget Dodger can be a girls name or a boys name.

Does this count as fishing? :) My first Lobster!


Went straight to Mommas Plate!

Hating the Evil Empire

The East Meneses are bumming because we just saw the FREAKING Yankees win in the tenth inng, but they have to play again in twenty minutes. May the evil empire lose and have to play Texas in the paly offs.
