Decorating the Tree

Just a few pics of before and after decorating the tree...

Lone Star Bike Rally

Galveston Island always host the Lone Star Bike Rally but this year was extra special. This year proceeds went to help rebuild the island after the devastation Hurricane Ike caused. It was truly amazing seeing so many bikes all in one place. We had so much fun as always!












After the great afternoon in Galveston we stopped in Kemah to check out the boat parade. It wasn't starting out soo great so we went ahead and left. It was a LONG but fun filled day!

Chandler turns the big 1-1!!

Can you believe it? Because I don't think Michael or I do! I made Chandler's favorite dinner. Roast and homemade Mac N Cheese. I also baked him a cake. Here are a few pics!

SNOW in Texas??? Who'd a thunk it???

But it really happened! Again. Michael and I were together for the Christmas Eve Snow of 2004 and were able to experience it again on the 10th of December 2008. I know I know... most people are wondering why in the world would people be soo excited about snow? Well, because we're in southern Texas where it almost NEVER snows. So, for us this is HUGE! Enjoy TONS of pics!!!

Holiday Lunch with Chandler

Michael, Unc and I went to Chandlers school lunch. It's kind of sad since this is his last year for this. He'll be in junior high next year therefore no more of these lunches. We've gone every year and will defintley miss this tradtion.

It's the FUDGE making time of the year

Raegann and I made fudge last night. I tend to make it every year for Michael to take to work with him. It's a huge hit over there! Here's a few pics from this year's first batch of fudge.

Little Bit of This... Little Bit of That

Another week has come and gone.

Let's see here.. Raegann got her school progress report last week. Awesome news there! She scored all 2's which means she's right on track. The best news was she got a 1 in reading meaning she is above level. She is already on level 16 which is where they should be at the end of the year. She's doing soo amazing!

Chandler turns 11 this week. On Thursday. I'm making his favorite, homemade mac n cheese, then we'll do cake and ice cream. I'll have plenty of pics to post on Friday!

Andrew is just a total goofball! He now has 14 teeth and working on more! Hopefully he'll be done with teething soon!

Thursday night Shannee and I took the boys to Christmas on Main Street. It was OK. Defintley aimed more for the older kids! Poor Andrew is used to being in bed by 6:30 so he was soo tired. Wouldn't smile for anything. But at least he didn't cry when he sat with Mr. and Mrs. Clause.

I went to my friend Shannee's house Friday night for a Booty Parlor Party. Fun times there for sure!



Saturday we slept in most of the day then decided to go eat and go to the museum. We saw the Body Works 2 exhibit. Soo good! Andrew was great through the whole thing.



Sunday was Bunco night for me. Our theme this month was Grease, the movie. I wore a pink wig and went as Frenchie.




And just because I find these to be unbelievably cute! They were chilling out reading the Sunday paper on the back porch together. Ahhh!
