Celebrate

Tonite we went and celebrated birthdays with my Uncle and Grandmother.    We had a great time.    Here are a few pictures.   I promised I wouldn't put them on facebook so here they are.

Caroline showing Great Grandpa something on the Iphone- I think she was singing a song from the Frozen movie in this picture.

Pinewood Derby


This is Sam's last year in Cub Scouts.    Today was his last Pine Wood Derby.     He worked very hard on his car and it ran well.     Max, my nephew won 6th place in the entire troop.     And Caroline & Emerson ran cars in the sibling race and Caroline won 2nd place out of about 16 cars.    They all had a great time!

Six Flags Saturday

Sam & I went to Six Flags on Saturday with his friend and his mom and then the SUPER special guest- HIS TEACHER and her daughter!    Sam was so excited-    Sam has had the same teacher for two years now and we LOVE her.    Her husband actually works with Kirt so she has known Kirt since high school.
Sam and I watched our friends go on the swings above- NO WAY!   TOO high for the Rubys!






They are showing off their pedometers- their class is wearing pedometers that are being downloaded for a research study on children activities.

Perot Museum

On Thursday we went to the Perot Museum for the first time!   So much fun.

Emerson liked learning about the water cycle- that was ice she was touching

Sam photobombed a picture of Caroline and Aunt Tina

The girls LOVED this one- it was a geode that they could open and see all the pretty purple crystals

They video tape them doing a sport then they can watch it in slow motion and compare themselves to a pro athelete- Sam chose Roger Staubach


Jessie & Emerson racing against a track star


And of course we had to stop for craft time

New Years Eve 2013

Tracey hosted a few families at her house for New Years.   Here are the kids watching a movie!

Our great friend that is a party planner extraordinaire so she came and gave the party some pizzazz!    Check her out at www.gigglesgalore.net




Sam got a rocket for Christmas so we took it to the park along with a few kids that wanted to watch the big launch event.     Very fun!    

And a few more lakehouse pictures that were on my phone.
