Returning to the Blogging World!

Sorry I have been out of touch for the past several weeks, but life has been more busy than ever. On September 29th, I started a new job with Tristone Capital as an Associate. I am doing the same type of work as before, but Tristone helps to sell oil and gas companies. I thought I would be coming in at a slow time, but work really picked up about the third day after I started. I have worked at least part of 3 or 4 weekends since I started and have had some long nights. Things are starting to slow down a little though and I am looking forward to having some time to celebrate the holidays.

To me all the holiday festivities start in October with Halloween. We had a great Halloween this year. Elena dressed as a caterpillar since she loves them so much. Her cousin Victoria joined her as Elmo for Trick-or-Treating. The girls had a wonderful time and Elena is still eating candy she collected that night. Since we only let her have one a day, I guess that is why it lasts so long. Here is a photo of Elena dressed up.

We are definitely looking forward to celebrating Thanksgiving with our family both here in Houston and in East Texas. We are also looking forward to December 1st, one week from today. It is the day our little girl turns two. I cannot believe that two years have gone by so fast. I miss being able to hold her like when she was an infant, but she is a lot of fun at this age. Of course she has her toddler moments, but when she is sweet and affectionate, she more than makes up for it.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving. I will try and post some more family photos after the festivities.
