Watching Airplanes



While waiting to pick Clay up from the airport we stopped off at the Founders' Plaza at DFW. This is the coolest place if your kids love planes. You can hear the conversation between ATC and the pilots of the planes and are able to just sit and watch the planes land and take off. Matthew enjoyed seeing the ATR.

Matthew's Tennis League



Wednesdays until May we have been invited up to the Dallas Country Club at 3:00 for some tennis with Uncle Allan. Matthew loves interacting with other 4 year olds and being taught by his goofy uncle. Paige likes to play with the balls. We also have been lucky enough to enjoy dinner afterwards with Neely.

Paige and Her Tongue




Paige and her tongue!!!! She constantly has her tongue sticking out of the side of her mouth lately. She is cruising all over the place and pulling herself up. She has recently discovered that doors open and close and tries to pull every thing off of selves. She keeps me on my toes.

Truck Update

The truck has been located. It was found abandoned on a side road in Oklahoma. The only damage as of now is the window that was busted out and the steering column. The truck is on his way back today headed to the Dodge shop in North Richland Hills so our Dodge mechanic Clint can work on Big Blue.

Texas Sunset


The first couple weeks in February have been difficult. It started with a 10:30 pm doctor run for Matthew because I could not get his 103.4 fever to break. He ended up having the flu. After waiting for his antibiotic at the pharmacy we finally ended up home at 1:00 in the morning. Couple of days later I find out that I had the flu. Couple days after that Paige has a temperature over 103. I had to lug the kids out of bed at 4:30 to run to the store to get Motrin. She ended up having two ear infections. The joys of having your husband out of town and having a sick family. Everyone is better now and hopefully we can enjoy the rest of February.

Spongebob Squarepants


So we sent Matthew off to CTR class and he comes back with a picture of Spongebob. After asking him what he learned today in class, the only thing he can remember is getting to go use the bathroom and drawing a picture of Spongebob. Gotta love him.

Big Blue




My Dad's truck was stolen!!!! It had just come out of the shop sitting at Stacey's house waiting to be moved back over to our house and someone smashed the passenger side window in and stole it. The truck now known as grande azul (family joke) will be missed. My fondest memories of the truck were up in New Mexico. Especially the time we went up the mountain and through a small body of water, where the lip on the other side was a little deeper than expected. The kids enjoyed their adventures in the truck.
