Trent's Trip to Fox News


Last Wednesday Trent joined the Bear Cub Scouts and went to the Fox News Station to be guests on the afternoon Web cast. (Trent became an official Webelo last month but the Bears invited him to join them on this outing) They were working on their Weather Belt loop. He came home wanting to be a meteorologist more than ever! He has always loved the weather and seeing it up close and learning even more was great for him. The Fox meteorologist is a member of our Stake here and got special permission for them to be there.

My Favorite Picture from our Wildflower Trip


These are my favorite people and I just love this picture! I felt like I found the perfect place and everyone just got into the perfect position! I only wish they understood just how incredible they all are and how important they are to me.

What goes up, must come down.


It's a bird, it's a plane, No! It's a rock thrown high in the air by Eyn with hopes of it falling in the pond right beside them and not on their heads!

In Search of Wildflowers



A few weeks ago we traveled the countryside in search of the beautiful Texas Wildflowers. We were unable to find them, but came across the Rose Emporium which is a beautiful setting to enjoy. We had a fabulous time playing among the flowers taking pictures. We ended up being the only people there for quite awhile and it was great! The weather was wonderful and everyone was in a happy mood.

This is our Beautiful Elizabeth in her new letter jacket. She just completed her Junior year at Seven Lakes High School. She had a fabulous year in choir. She made all District Choir and got 1's on her Solo which made her eligible to go to State. Her choir was selected as the 2009 TMEA Performance Choir and will sing at the 2009 Texas Music Educators Association Convention in San Antonio. That's equivalent to a football team making All-State. She is looking forward to her Senior year being busy Singing.

I think I can honestly say that Eyn does not like to pose for pictures. But, he put up with it and was a good sport. I think he had the most fun throwing rocks into the small ponds and trying to scare me by throwing small pebbles on the "outhouse" when I was in it.

I do believe that Trent enjoys posing for pictures. He likes to pose in different positions like in GQ. He loved throwing rocks with Eyn and being chased by Amberly all around the flowers.

My sweet adorable Amberly who had to be bribed by Elizabeth to smile. All she wanted to do was run around and play. She was so happy and loved just having fun.

I love this picture!! We found this cute table and they just sat down at it and so I had to get a picture! They were joking around with the teacup plants, but I thought it was great! I actually think Eyn is the one who started pretending to drink it!

The Beginning

It's time to get connected to the outside world! I hope that by doing this new blog that I am able to reconnect with a lot of family and friends. This is kinda scary but hopefully it will be great!
