The Hodum family Christmas tree! We got it up this afternoon with the help of Chewie and Sammy. Notice the lack of ornaments at the bottom- we have to keep breakable things out of the way of Chewie's tail and Sammy's mouth.

Seriously, can you imagine living next to these people? I don't, but Melissa does! They had about six of these inflatable Christmas decorations last year, and they've multiplied this year like rabbits!!!

My school's theatre department produced their fall musical this weekend. This year it was Beauty and the Beast and it was outstanding!!! We had a great time watching the talented kids.

I'm a mean doggie-mommy.

On a side note, Sammy ate one of my shoes today. We're currently not speaking.

Ten years ago today, at 2:42am, Aggie Bonfire fell, killing twelve students and injuring twenty-seven others. I was still in high school, but I certainly remember the far reach this loss had to the Aggie community, specifically my friends that had older siblings at A&M. It was only when I got to A&M, met those who lost someone when the stacks fell, and felt the spirit of Aggieland that I truly understood the effect this event had on the school. I know this tragedy shaped my experience at A&M and will continue to shape each new class. Today, I'm remembering the 12 who lost their lives on 11/18/99
