Mason's 8th Birthday!

Mason celebrated his 8th birthday earlier this month. He celebrated by having a flag football game with some of his friends. You talk about an absolute BLAST!!! He loved it and plans on doing it for every one of his future birthdays. There was even some talk of a Dad's versus Son's Game as they get older; lots of "trash-talking" has already started.

Sage Cheerleading

Sissy has been cheering this season for Basketball. She LOVES it! She has been doing it for the past few weeks and is excited every time she goes to the games or practice! "S-C-O-R-E raise that score!!!" is heard quite a bit at our house!

Happy New Year! Welcome 2010!

We wanted to wish all of our friends and family a Happy New Year! As a family and individually we all have a lot to be Thankful for in 2009. We have had a wonderful and blessed year. Attached are a few pictures of us as 2010 began; Sage was half a sleep so we did not get a good picture of her!

Global Warming: It is Killing us here in TX!

Today it snowed almost all afternoon. This is the third snow of the month. It hasn't snowed a total of three time in the past two years let alone this early in the winter and three times in one month. Thank goodness we have our new Liberal President to get rid of all of this Global Warming; great job so far! He really is a miracle worker; NOT!

Dallas Cowboys!

We thought that we would let every one know that the Dallas Cowboys made the playoffs!! Go Cowboys!!!

Christmas: Take Three

After our Christmas Morning ended the kids could not wait to get outside in the snow. They built a couple of snowmen, made snow angels and a snow ball fight or two broke out! We spend the late afternoon and evening enjoying our new presents and games and had our traditional grilled Ribs for dinner!

Christmas: Take Two

We had a great Christmas Morning. We woke up to a white Christmas!

Christmas: Take One

We all had a very blessed Christmas! We went to the Christmas Eve Mass at 4pm. When we got out of Church there was several inches of snow covering everything! You talk about putting you in the Christmas spirit; going to Mass to Celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ and then having it snow and snow and snow.....wow! We then, as per our tradition drove around (yes even in the "Great Texas Blizzard", everything is relative!) and looked at Christmas lights. We then made it home and baked cookies for Santa Claus. The kids put out the cookies and some reindeer food! Memory maker of an evening; I know Hayley and I will always remember it. I hope the kids do!

The older kids all woke up around the same time and woke up the rest of us. Brody celebrated his first Christmas. After we all woke up somewhat we enjoyed what Santa had brought all of us!
