Beautiful Texas Sky

The sky was so beautiful tonight. The moon was shining so bright, the clouds looked like pillows streched out over the horizon. I attempted to take pics with my cheapy camera. They do not do it justice at all...

Mexican Jumping Bean

Please ignore my dirty kitchen in the video below... :) The cat was captivated by the jumping bean... lol

No, we have not blown away...

Lots of people have been calling and asking me if we were getting pounded by Ike. We live in North Texas, far away from Houston. :) We did not get more than a little breeze and some rain. Here are some pics I took and a short video of "the worst." lol

A day in time that changed our lives forever...

We Remember.

Poor Poopie

He has the misfortune of having a Mommy that finds his embarrassing moments totally cute and worth sharing. A couple of days ago, Poopie went poo-poo in his potty. He was pushing and pushing trying to get it out so he could get his lollie-pop. :)

Yesterday, I got home from Weight Watchers to find that Andi had dressed him up as Little Red Riding Hood. :)

Soccer Saturday

We started off our Saturday morning with Andi's first soccer game of the season. They did not win, but it was a good game. Andi's best friend who is also our across the street neighbor is on the team too, so that makes it extra fun for us. After the game, we cleaned the house and Eric started the BBQ... AND watching football. Yipee... Football season is almost over right! Please tell me it is!!! :)

King Poopie

Look at this future missionary... :)

I found this suit at the thrift store for $14!!!! It was a size to big for him but when we got home, it fit! (Colony Resale off the 121 and Main)

Our friends the Hudrliks came to visit from CA!

We were so excited to be able to see our friends from our old church in CA tonight while they were in town on business. They took us out to dinner at a real Texas style restaurant with great food. This awesome family (the kids were not on this trip) was a part of all of our growth in Cali including our adoptions, baptisms, and watching us go to the temple to get sealed. (Dana held Poopie's hand for the sealing. :) We had a great night getting caught up on who moved from our old ward, who is having a baby etc. We miss everyone soooo much. Our church family REALLY was a real part of our family and I still miss them now as much as I did when we got here. :) So, Highland Ward, if you are reading this, we love and miss you! Dana and Bill; please give the kids a hug and a kiss for us and we will see you again for your business trip next year!

1st b-day party for our sweet friend Myles

On Saturday, we went to a fun b-day party for our friend Myles who turned the big 1. :) The kids loved the bonce house and candy. :) Happy Birthday little Myles!
