Texas: Walker County: Huntsville: Thanksgiving was Wonderful! A Poet's View
Well, Turkey Day has come and gone, but the sentiment lives on and on.....
                           Gratitude, a grateful heart
Open eyes.................a brand new start
                    Seeing life in family ties....wrap around the tree of
                                        Solid Oak....a sturdy trunk... is tradition proud and future hopes
     So seemingly another year..........leading forth to Christmas....
                                          Cheer for LIFE in family ties, Cheer for Love in Family's eyes
           Open hearts and loving minds
             Bring blessings true....and gratitude....and then
                                   Christmastide

Home is what really matters...
My feelings about home are why I became a Realtor and then wanted to get as much additional training and education as possible with completing the GRI and CRS Designations within my first year and a half.
Why?  Because I LOVE helping my clients find the right place for them and their families to come to after a long day.  I want to learn every day so that I can be a better and better Realtor to assist folks and families find their place that transcends its 4 walls and 3 bedrooms and 2 baths....

Conroe Homes - Montgomery TX - What's East TX Girl Doing at Cowboy Stadium??? 
Here we go.  Sorry Houston Texan fans. I promise it was in my pre-nup.  My husband has been a Cowboy fan for more years than he cares to count.
How in the world did I get this footage?  Bootleg, baby!  This was fascinating to visit the locker room and walk in the tunnel, see Jerry Jones private parking garage and the private elevator that opens into the tunnel to the stadium.
Make sure you watch the video.  I ALMOST get caught.  The operative word is "almost."
