Today Mrs. Trish, Vincent, Logan and baby Dominic all went to Build-
A-Bear to create you and give you life. They gave me a sweet
lulluby, and I have two hearts so I will have twice the amount of
love to give to all my new friends that i will meet along my
journies. Vincent and logan lovingly gave me a bath so i will smell
fresh and clean. Mrs. Trish got me a pair of cool jeans, tennis
shoes, a texas state flag tshirt, oh yea and the University of Texas
tshirt also cant leave texas without it. I also got a cowboy hat, a
pair of shades to block out the sun and Logan thought i needed a
cell phone just in case i ever wanted to call home, I sure hope my
battery doesnt die, but im sure if it does ill get new ones along
the way.....well im gonna miss Texas and San Antonio but my journey
is meaningful and i cant wait to see what lies ahead for me in my
future on the TBE.

Counting down the days until my departure to Ms. Mary Beths house to
see all her little friends, I have plenty of sweets and treats to
thank them for my room and board. I may be counting down my days
but my dear friend Logan in in tears and sad to see me go, but he
knows im coming back soon. They took me to Kidzville today and I
helped storm the castle and take over the pirate ship. We then went
to walmart this awesome big store that Mrs. Trish loves to spend her
money in and picked out our wonderful sweets and treats...I hope i
dont eat any while in my box......8 more days and im on my way.

Tex is here yay!! We were gone visiting my sister's daycare and we came home to a box on the deck! Joey knew what it was before we got out of my van!! He said, "It is cold he comes in!!" It is 50 degrees here so we brought our new friend in and warmed him up a bit. The boys both decided it was nap time.
Photos soon

Good morning! Tex arrived this morning just in time to send off Michael W, Jordan, and Michael P. to school. The lady at the post office asked him if he would also bring a big yellow envelope to me. He told me it looked important so he agreed. The envelope contained my group family registration! ! It has been a very eventful morning with lots of celebrating! ! ( I have been going thru this process for 10 months and finally we are group!!)
Well, Tex and I sent the kids off to school with promises that he would be fine until they got home. He told them he'd just hang out with Matt and Rae-Lyn and Tristan until they got back from school this afternoon. Such sad faces heading off to school this morning!! Tex has settled in, we decided to see what he brought with him a little later since we were pressed for time before the bus came. For now, hes just chillin'.

I have been having so much fun that I almost forgot to write! The kids here were all interested in Texas so I have been telling them all about it. I have been having campouts at night with Michael and Jordan who live here. They make thier bunk bed into a tent and we all sleep on the bottom bunk together! Littel Tristan is teething so he drooled on me a littel, but Miss Katrina cleaned it off! Yuck!! Baby drool! Anyway, I just wanted to send you a note and let you know that im doing fine and will be home in no time! Miss you all!
Love
Tex

Tex showed up on Friday, October 13th after the kids were settled down for nap and then when they woke up I was at the doctors. So, we waited until Monday, October 16th to open him up. His box showed up right before we started our preschool time. The kids were thrilled to see the box. Once the box was open - they couldn't pull him out of their quick enough. Most of the kids (Kayleigh and Tommy are pictured) took turns hugging and loving on him from his long journey to us. They helped him go through our preschool time and then David, Tex and Kaleigh decided they need to lay down for a short rest. After lunch we had to trek up to the bus stop where Tex waited patiently with Kaleigh and David while we waited for the bus. And then before Kaleigh could hop on the bus she needed one more hug from him :) He ended up going home with Kirsten last night. I can't wait to find out what all the did last night. We'll get a report from her after school today.
