Murder Mystery Dinner

Tracey & I were so excited to go to my friend Judy's suprise birthday celebration. We went to a murder mystery dinner at The Gaylord.

Austin spring break pictures

Grandma Dottie made a dessert that looked like a potted plant. Sam was really impressed

Tiffany met us for dinner the last night we were there.

Boys Day

Kirt took Sam golfing with his Dad and Tyler today. They had a good time. I think Sam spent alot of time filling in the holes that he made in the ground with sand. He loved driving the golf cart though. The girls and I had "girls day" today too. We went to Sweet and Sassy and Emerson got her toes painted then we went to Chick-fil-A. Fun day- we will head to Austin in the morning- guess I should be packing before Kirt notices that I am playing on the computer instead of doing laundry!

Swimming & Elvis?!

Elvis & Sam

Emerson loved the boat

The Ruby family with Elvis. We celebrated Len's 60th birthday today and Brian suprised him with an Elvis impersonator. We had a blast and then we went swimming!

6 Month pictures

I know Caroline is almost 6 1/2 months but I wanted to post these so they could go in my scrapbook that I am making from my blog posts. She is 17 pounds already. She is such a happy, laid back baby. She never cries unless something has really hurt her (a.ka. her brother or sister) She has one tooth and she loves to roll over and she sits for a few seconds at a time. She sleeps all night and takes 3 naps a day. I have been making all her baby food with my new Babycook processor and she seems to love to eat! The third baby is definetly our sweetest and best in the baby phase!

The Fish Company

It was Texas week at preschool- Emerson looked very festive in her little "Cowboy Wanted" shirt. I thought it was so cute and probably the only time she will get to wear it before she outgrows it! Thank goodness for the hand-me-downs from her cousins!

Emerson & her Aunt Tina- we had dinner tonight at The Fish Company on the lake for Len's 60th birthday. We are celebrating all weekend and Tina came in town from DC.

Weekend Pictures

T-ball season started again this week! We have 2 games a week until May! Their team has improved SO much. Sam hit a home run on Saturday but he forgot to touch 3rd base so he had to go back to 3rd. But we were really excited. Here is the link to his team website if you are intrested in seeing pictures. Express Website

Emerson cheering her brother on!

These pictures are a little out of order, but this is from the carnival we went to on Friday night with Brooke & our friends Beth & Emily.

Sweet little baby cheering on her brother. Emerson stole her blanket so Caroline had to use Sam's jacket. I didn't know it was going to be so windy out there!

Another carnival picture!

My grandma gave us this cute suitcase for the girls- I painted it and up her dress up clothes inside! She is so excited and carries it everywhere with her!

Grandma Karen & baby Caroline! She is already 6 months!

Emerson was so happy to go to the childrens zoo and get to pet the animals

Brooke & Emerson

We went to the zoo on Max's actual birthday. I felt a little guilty going without Sam. Poor guy misses out when he has to go to school. I just keep reminding myself that I did so much more with him when he was little before the girls were born. He was an only child for 3 1/2 years! Of course he saw the lion cup immediatly when he got home and asked if we went to the zoo without him. He didn't mention it again! Now off to see about the girls!
