Happy St. Patrick's Day!

And the race is on!!!!

IT'S RACE DAY
For the last couple of months Joey has been organizing a 5K on the Southwest Christian campus and today is the big day! I'm so proud of him, he has done an amazing job - who knew there was so much involved with putting together a race like this, but it is a big endeavor! The race will totally benefit Habitat for Humanity and later this week we (along with many SCS student council members) will take part in a Habitat project in Fort Worth. So, it's 6:30 am, Joey left and hour ago and Case and I are about to walk out the door....

Update 3/20/07 The 5k went perfectly! My husband is an amazing man!

A day off is a good thing...

Hey guys,
It's been a while since we've posted pictures, so we decided to overwhelm you a bit with this post. Joey had the day off so we cruised out to Glen Rose, ate some Ranch House Bar-B-Q and took some photos. Enjoy, we certainly did.

let it snow!

Well, it came a little too late to have a White Christmas, but better late than never! We got a day off of school and some nice pictures to boot.

Nine Months Already???

The right jolly old elf himself

Santa Claus, St. Nicholas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle.....you can call him whatever you wish. I want NOTHING to do with him or his candy canes!

Merry Christmas to you & yours

Fall Festival

Cloy and Melanie aka "Nanny and Papa" came to visit the weekend before Halloween. We spent the day in Glen Rose at their Fall Festival, and then ate at...you guessed it, The Ranch House! Case loved taking in the sights while masquerading as a "silly bug"!

Meeting Big Tex

Yep, you guessed it a trip to the one and only State Fair of Texas! On our way we visited two other Dallas icons - The Dallas Farmer's Market (which if you've never been could be misleading....it's smackdab in the middle of downtown Dallas)and the famous Metro Diner on Gaston Avenue. Initally, we learned about The Metro Diner from a photographer whose work we absolutely love...Allison V. Smith...anyway, interestingly while we were there we met another photographer, Phoenix Taylor, who has some very dark, but awesome work. www.myspace.com/phoenix_pae and www.dismantledred.com He loved Case- who was all smiles - and took some really cute pics of him. Another little interesting note, the diner just happens to be right across the street from Baylor College of Denistry (where my Dad went). I had never seen the school so that was fun too - neat to try to imagine what life was like 30+ years ago when my parents lived not too far from that very spot!

p.s. I'll add more pictures to this entry later!

Our 'Lil Pumpkin

Brazos Point

I bought this tub at an antique store (in Glen Rose actually - no, I'm not being paid to promote GR as much as it may seem that way) long before Case arrived. In fact long before we even knew he was on his way, but I purchased it with this exact picture in mind and the reality of it is even more wonderful! What a gift this little boy is and what a proud mama I am!
