Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful time with our family. On Friday, Terri, Jennifer, Andi and I went to Gruene to have lunch and do a little shopping. We then met Theresa at a winery in New Braunfels. We had a great girls day.

Carter is now 16 months old and is everywhere. He is such a happy busy little boy. It was a great weekend.

Labor Day weekend

We had a great weekend. Clifford and Theresa brought Baby Carter and the puppy Annabelle down for the weekend. Brian and Andi went to the Us Open in New York so we babysat Carter. 

Went to a baby shower for niece and nephew on Saturday. Their baby boy is due the 1st of November.  Sunday we had a BBQ and all swam in the pool. Carter loved the pool and Annabelle discovered the pool.  We were very sorry to see everyone leave this morning. 

Carter's lst Birthday

July 21, 2009 IS  Baby Carter's first Birthday. The family celebration was at his house with Aunt Theresa, Uncle Cliff, Aunt T, Jennifer, Nana Carol and of course mommy and daddy attending.

He was not to sure of the chocolate cupcake but when the ice cream was served, it was a hit with him.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARTER!!!!!!

Carter at Childrens Museum

WE took Carter to the Children's Museum. We think he had a great time. It wore Tom and I out.

Tom,Carol, Clifford and Theresa

Here are some pictures of Tom,Carol, Clifford and Theresa!!!

Fathers Day 09

We had a great visit with Clifford, Theresa and Annabelle(new puppy) this weekend. We had dinner with Pa Dee and Nana on Saturday night. Annabelle is so cute.

On Sunday, Tom did BBQ for us (steaks!! and yes I know it was Fathers Day and someone else should have been cooking)

Tom received some RICE OWL items from the boys, girls, and grandson Carter. He got a new RICE chair and RICE hat. He really liked them.

Overall,it was a nice quiet weekend. I have attached pictures of the four of us, Annabelle and of course the Diva, Cali.

Mothers Day

We had a great visit from Brian, Andi and of course Baby Carter. Carter is now crawling and pulling up on things. He was so much fun this weekend.

We saw Nana and Pa yesterday for lunch. We actually had 4 generations together. I have attached picture.

Fiesta Week

Fiesta week is here in San Antonio. I went to NEISO Tuesday night with a friend. (Very brave)
WE had a great time. Tomorrow Tom and I and some friends are going to King William Fair. It is a festival among all the historical homes in that area. Lots of food, music, arts and crafts and drinks. It is one of the things, Tom and I enjoy about Fiesta. It is really low-keyed compared to all the other events.
Today is a holiday because of the Battle of Flowers parade. Love it.

Weekend, good times

We had a great weekend celebrating Clifford and Theresa's delayed wedding reception. Baby Carter was here with his parents and he is such a doll. How could you not love that happy baby?

Spring Break

It is my Spring Break this week. I went shopping at the outlet mall with friends and had lunch. I have offically lost 10 lbs so that was my excuse to buy new pants.

We were in Houston last weekend because Tom had business there on Monday am. We changed cars with Clifflord so it was nice to get my Nissan back.

Carter is great. Laughing all the time. What a pleasant little guy. (Not little, all 18 lbs of him)

It is always great to see my boys and my girls. We always have a nice time.

Not much going on

Sorry I have not posted lately. I guess I did not have much to say.

Valentines evening, Tom and I went to dinner and a movie. Saw Gran Torino with Clint Eastwood. Good movie but I could have done without the language.

Baby Carter is now sitting up so we are going down the 28th to see him.

Clifford is taking the bar on Feb. 24, 25, 26th so please keep him in your prayers.

We have started an awesome Bible Study about prayer. It is how to pray and how powerful prayer is.

Ok, I am getting better at this so I will post some more pictures

The left hand picture is Clifford and Theresa's fantastic wedding at Minute Maid Stadium. The middle one is Tom, me and Cali at the marathon. The picture on the right is the girls at the Marathon.

What a great month it has been. I have been to Houston twice in January. The first time I went to take care of Carter because he was sick. The next weekend we went to celebrate Tom's birthday and watch Brian in the marathon.

The picture to the left is Tom with Baby Carter at the marathon. What a trooper he was that day. He is such a happy baby. He is now 6 months and Tom is now 60 years old.
