Family Day Out

Yesterday, 11/ 15, we headed out to my Dad's company Family Fall Day. It was so much fun. We started out late heading out because Jessy hasn't been feeling all that great. I was so unsure whether we should take her out or not. But, I am so glad we did. I gave her her meds. before we left and it helped us out tremendously. She was able to enjoy her time with Makiya, her 7 yr. old.

The company my dad works for is the McCoys Headquarters and so we went to the Civic Center. I've never been there before and when we walked in, it was such a cool surprise! It was like walking into a rodeo arena...maybe that's what they have there??? Well, there was hay all over on the ground and of course dirt, but it was clean and a very pleasant atmosphere. We didn't know what to expect, but Jessy was so happy when she saw everything. They had all kinds of fun carnival games for the kiddos and whether or not they won, they got to grab a prize to add to their bags. Jessy loved all of them, but I think her favorite was the ping pong ball bounce into the pumpkins. She played so much throughout the rest of the afternoon, thanks to my sis and Kiya who kept her busy.

For lunch, we had a wonderful meal of Fried Catfish, Hushpuppies, Cole Slaw, Beans, and yummy tea!!! I sure did eat good. =) Gosh, it was so yummy. Well, after a while we enjoyed so many different choices of desserts...which for me was only a few bites of a delicious brownie and a slice of carrot cake. Everything else was WAY TOO sweet for me.



So the evening winds down and after all the fun activities such as Horseshoes, Washers, Pie Eating Contest, and so much more we settled down to play a few games of BINGO!!!! I haven't played in so long. And no, I did not win a single game!!!! What's up with that??

As we headed out to go home, they had a door prize drawing. My sister Roxi won a basket with Wine....Hector had his eye on that one. My dad and mom won a 2 night getaway at some awesome Resort in Galveston!!! What a finale!

Thanks Dad, for inviting our family to go. It was so much fun! And to those of you who get opportunities to spend with your family, do all you can do go and be there! You don't want to miss out on making more memories.

Oh, and thanks to Roxi who let Jessy spend the night with her!
