Where did my little baby go?

That is Cody with number 4
Today was our homecoming game. We lost 21 to 9 but it was a good game. These pictures are in backwards order but I am to tired to redo them. After the game there was a homecoming banquet. Cody and three other students got to go. Elizabeth didn't go but here is a picture of her and Sami. Notice her new hair color....I love it.
This is Cody, Justin, Ashley and Sami. Ashley and Sami are cheerleaders

Don't these two look scarey? I don't know why they can't smile.
Watch out for number 10

photo session with Cat.

Catherine will be having her pictures taken on Fri and I was trying to decide if I liked the clothes I bought her, so I took some pix of her outside...she was such the little model, trying different poses! (you can see the tags on her new clothes! I didn't want to take them off till I was sure I liked them on her!)

ok, the dead plant behind her doesn't make such a nice background!

I am not sure that my camera is really fixed, the pix still are not very crisp. I've taken it in 3 times, so the next time I take it in, they are supposed to replace it.

Have a good day!

Happy Birthday Calixto

Yet another Fall Birthday...
ok I posted this this morning...where oh where did it go?? Anyway...
"Happy Birthday Honey...one more year until the big One!"
Yesterday was his birthday but we were not home all day to post a birthday message. He had all day alumni meetings/gatherings at LeTourneau and the kids and I had Christopher's soccer tournament. His parents came in and we had a nice dinner with them last night.
Happy Birthday to a wonderful husband and father...We love you!

Happy Birthday to Calixto!!

For some reason I can't post a picture this morning! Yesterday was Calixto's birthday! We weren't home much at all so I was unable to post then. Calixto spent all day at alumni meetings at LeTourneau and the kids and I were at Christopher's soccer tournament. We did have a nice dinner with his parents last night. And now we are off to visit a different church in town, so we feel like we aren't at "work". Have a great time of worship today!

Happy Birthday to Calixto!!

miscellaneous pictures

Christopher's birthday party at Kid's Station. It is a pretty cool place run by a local Methodist church. It's kind of like Chuck E Cheese only bigger and better. They have individual rooms for your parties and they take care of everything from invitations to the cake. That was helpful since we got back into town on Fri evening and he had both a soccer game and his party the next day.
Some kind of animal skin on his head?! Don't know why someone brought that to the party?! But since it was there...you might as well put it on your head!
My sweet friend Toni, we used to be neighbors until they moved back to South Dakota. God has blessed me with a wonderful godly friendship that continues in spite of the distance. (Her husband is an associate pastor in an EV Free church.)
Oops, forgot to rotate the picture of the chocolate faced girl!
These are a bit out of order...It was nice to rent a car and visit the country side in Minnesota and not just stay in the city. Our other pictures of the trip are on a throw away camera, for some reason I can not get the pictures off the cd to post them...I think I erased them or something...I'll keep trying.

Catherine's Birthday Party

Catherine's party was so much fun. We had about 23 kids and a dozen or so parents. We borrowed a big inflatable water slide from a friend. Everyone had a blast and the weather was wonderful. In fact the kids were a little chilly standing in line once they were wet. Here are a few pictures of the fun day...
The Princess dress Mom-mom made for her...it is beautiful! She will wear this Saturday at a friends Princess party.
I made the pudding & cool whip frosting...everyone loved it except Catherine, she wouldn't even eat one of them! She liked the regular frosting I made last week though (it was much sweeter!)
The kids were so excited to give their presents to her...it was fun to watch, I had to step away as I was getting trampled!
Any picture I take of Christopher now and this is what I get...pure silliness!
Abuelita even came to the party with Tia Lupe and Uncle Julian. You can see some of our finished landscaping in the background of the pictures, it looks great!

Look at the booboo face!

















Cheyenne seems to be following in her daddy's foot steps. We were getting ready to go to Bruce's grave and she decided to kiss the concrete in the church parking lot. She was fine after I cleaned her up. She just looks so pretty.

One Year today


It is hard to believe it has been a whole year.

Where has the time gone? Honor God today in Bruce's memory. One day done is a one day closer to meeting again.

Catherine is 4!!

Happy Birthday to Catherine! She was so excited about turning 4. We went to Chuck E Cheese where she got this crown. It didn't quite fit on top of her hair but looked so cute with her hair sticking out of it. She will have a big birthday bash on Saturday with lots of friends...the guest list has gotten a bit large! Today we just celebrated as a family. She fell asleep within minutes, she was so worn out from the days activities. We are so blessed by Catherine and thank the Lord for entrusting us with her!!

Our pretty ballerina


Catherine had her first Dance class today. She was so excited! Her class consists of tap, ballet and tumbling. She had a great time and the class even sang Happy Birthday to her at the end class time. She looked so precious in her outfit, I just had to share! (the pink is for you Tracy!)

Our new baby




This is our new baby. It is only like 4 months old. I still have to hand feed it once a day. It is already very sweet and loves to be held and gives kisses. I don't have a name for it yet. It is impossible to know whether it is a girl or boy so we will just have to pick a name.
