THE GARVEY'S: A Hodge-Podge of Pictures and activities

After our lame attempt last weekend to find a true "Pumpkin Patch" we sort of found one this weekend. I guess I should clarify- it was out in the country, had "some" pumpkins, and a few actitivies for the kiddos. Although, it was nothing like what were use to from Chicago, it still put us in the holiday spirit. It was a gorgous day on Sunday- couldn't have asked for better weather. (Okay maybe a little snow, would be nice )

this is the "Pumpkin Patch"

Sunday morning was also a pretty exciting time in our neighborhood. The clean up crew finally made it's way down our street to pick up the last of the remains of Ike. These guys sure are early risers. They were perched out front of our house a little past seven. It's hard to get angry, when they are doing such a great thing. Finally

There goes our fence- finally

Saturday night, we made it out to the first home game of the Houston Aeros Hockey Team. It was a really good game- they won 8-6. Not much fighting, but a lot of goals were scored. Below are a few pictures from the game.

I apologize for the Hodge-Podge of pictures from this past weekend, but it seems to be the story of our lives these past few months. We have to cram 7 days into about a day and half. So were on the go all weekend long. This past one was no different.

Saturday afternoon, I called Greg to have him come down to my Cafe and take a look at the wood floors in the dining. Over the past week or so, the floors have started to bubble and buckle due to the water that leaked in under the doors and windows during Ike. My Cafe is still a total mess. I have 4 windows that are still boarded up, two huge pitchers mounds going by the day in the dining room, and an Ice machine that is still not working. Never a dull moment in the world of Panera Bread. :)
