Today, we are going to my sister -in-law's home for "the gathering." There will be about 25 of us with all the family there, and it will be wonderful. Chris and Alan are a model of how to be good hosts and hostesses; just the right amount of food and drink; music, lots of laughter, and a lovely back yard to sit and visit in. The weather is "chamber of commerce" for the city of Houston, and I'm looking forward to it bigtime. My kids fed us a late and yummy breakfast, Andy walked the dog and Dana did laundry. Life in the fast lane...

Hope you are having a good day! :)
