The Alamo











You have not been to the Alamo until you have been to the Alamo with my husband. For those that do not know about Scott's love for Texas history let me share a little secret. Scott loooooves Texas history. We have been to the Alamo 6 times in our marriage of 9 years. He has read every plaque, marker and etched stone in the place. Every time we go he is soo passionate about the stories of the men that gave their lives. Watching him makes me want to learn and feel a fraction of what he is feeling. We took Jack and he walked across the line that William Barret Travis drew in the sand so he is an official Texan. Michael walked across the line when he was 6 months and then several times this visit so I think he is coverd. I hope one day the boys will share this love of learning about history with their father.

San Antonio
















Scott and I took a long weekend and went to San Antonio. Jack was able to meet his great grandma for the first time. The pictures will tell the rest.

Lets Talk about Jack



I can not  beleive it has been 9 months Jack has been in our lives. His personality has really showed itself. Here are some of Jacks Likes:

Eating, pulling up on peoples legs, eating, taking baths with his big brother, eating, biting his mommy, eating, his glow seahorse, eating and trying to do everything big brother does. Oh and eating.

Jacks dislikes: Going to long with out eating, when mommy leaves the room, when mommy puts me down to nap and when big brother does not let me have full access to  his toys.

He is such a joy and soo layed back. He will cry until I walk in the room. As soon as I say his name he will smile and hold his arms up  to be held. I am truely blessed to have them both in my life.

Michael's Birthday with Family


Michael's birthday ended up being on a Sunday so we had a BBQ at our house with family. He loves his new train set and  his busy town playcenter. 




We had Michaels party @ Pump It Up. It is a large warehouse full of jumpers and this very large slide. Michael showed no fear what so ever and went down tummy first by himself. When we sang happy birthday to him he laughed and giggled. He really enjoyed himself and so did his friends. We had 15 of Michael's friends attend and they all made it very special for him.




Long time no blog.

Our family has been very busy. I will update you on the highlights.

Michael turned 2! I made his cake myself he was very pleased with my selection of decor. He looked at the cake and yelled ALL ABOARD WOOOH WOOOH! I did star cookies for party favors. They were a big hit with the parents and kids.
