Kicking Off The 2010 Season!

Kicking off the first regular season game of 2010!!

Blake is #63.

The final score was 18-12 Llano.  The boys played hard, but had too many mistakes to pull out the win.

First Day of School

Ayden's 5th Birthday

Hamburgers, chips and dip, cake, water balloons, family, and fun...that is what Ayden wanted for his birthday!

Football vs. San Saba

The boys had their final scrimmage today at San Saba.  They did a great job!  Here are a couple of pictures from the night.  Blake is playing quick guard (right beside the center with the black band on his knee).  I had several other pictures, but I was not able to pick him out of the crowd.  I can't wait until next week when they will have numbers on their jerseys.  It will be so much easier to keep up with him. 

Go Indians!!!

We Are Ready For Some

Nine Months

Sutton went for his 9 month checkup today. He did not have to get any shots this time. Yea!! He now weighs 21 pounds 3 ounces and is 29 inches long.


He says momma, bubba (uba), bottle (baba), and finally daddy (dada). He still does not truly crawly. He inchworms around. He pulls up to his knees and gets one foot under him. Won't be long, and we will be chasing him down!


He still has no teeth, but that does not stop him when it comes to eating. He loves cheerios and other little puffed baby snacks, but his absolute favorite foods are ice cream and twinkies.

Sutton loves the water, no matter where it is!

Vacation 2010

This year, we went to Great Wolf Lodge for a couple of days.  It was a lot of fun.  Granny, Wayland, JoAnn, Thomas, Lyndell, Blake, Cordell, Ayden, Sutton, and I all went and enjoyed the hotel and indoor water park.  A lot of time was spent going down slides, walking across the lily pads, playing water basketball, eating pizza, and just spending family time together.  I did not get as many pictures as I would have liked, because I was wet. 

Here are a few memories...

We were in our room discussing going to get supper, when the fire alarm went off.  Of course, we were on the 6th floor.  That meant a long trip down 6 flights of stairs with a baby and a little bit panicy Ayden.  Luckily, it was only a malfunction in the alarm.  We got to see the fire trucks come though, and the boys enjoyed that!

Playing at the Park

Birthday Supper

We had a birthday supper at Wayland and JoAnn's house for mine and JoAnn's birthdays.  The boys played frisbee horseshoes, played with the dogs, and laughed.  We had a wonderful meal of ribs followed by cupcakes.

When we got to their house, Ayden bolted out of the car so excited.  As I stepped out, I hear giggling and look down.  Ayden is rolling around on the ground with Tye (the dog) on top of him.  The dog is licking him, and Ayden is yelling, "Wayland, Wayland, Get this dog off of me."  They were best of friends all night.

Random Pics of the Boys

Sutton rockin his 4th of July t-shirt.  What?  It doesn't look like a 4th of July shirt?  Well that would be because the tie dye kit I bought at the store was apparently hacked into.  It was supposed to have red, blue, and yellow dye inside.  I brought it home, and you know I procrastinate, so it was July 3rd.  I tied the boys shirts up with rubber bands, put on the gloves, mixed up the bottles of dye, and discovered yellow and 2 bottles of green, no blue or red.  Oh well, Sutton still looks pretty cute in it.  Just not what I had planned!

Ayden wearing his hat from bible school. 

He's been exploring the rainforest, and I think he is one of the cutest explorers I've ever seen.

Sutton loves wheels!

Crazy kids with their snow cone smiles.  Ayden even has a snow cone nose.  Don't know how that kid can get so dirty!!

Splash!

The boys have been going to the Methodist Church's bible school this week.  This afternoon, it was almost time to go.  I was getting Sutton ready, and the boys said they were going to go outside until it was time to go.  The last words out of my mouth, before the door shut behind them were, "just don't get dirty!!"  I went back to what I was doing.  I heard the door open.  Then I heard this coming towards me...

Ayden fell in the fish pond.

Cordell was laughing so hard that he could hardly talk.

Never a dull moment!

Advertising

When we got to church today, they had things ready for someone to be baptized.  Ayden, who is very observant, crawled over in my lap and whispered in my ear, "Mom, who are they going to advertise today?

Going on a Frog Hunt

We have gotten quite a bit of rain over the last couple of weeks, so there are lots of little frogs hanging out around our pond.  Boys will be boys, so they have loved catching and playing with the little critters.  They brought this one in to introduce to Sutton.  Unfortunately, they left it in a container on the coffee table.  Now the lid is off, and the frog is missing in action.   I'm just thankful that it was not the jar full of wolf spiders that they caught last week!

We are going on a frog hunt...

Another Fabulous Fourth

C for Cordell

Sutton enjoyed his first 4th.  He played with this little glow bracelet on his foot.  Then he sat quietly and watched every one of the fireworks go off.  He was mesmerized!

Hot Dogs, Pecan Pie, and Fireworks...

              Good Friends and Family...

A Fabulous 4th of July!
