Hoping your Christmas was as Merry as ours!

Fall 2010

This has been an extremely busy year! The boys are growing up faster than ever now and are at a fun age that we wish they would stay at forever. I know this is hard to see but click on it and you should be able to see their sweet muddy faces. I got a new camera and had to try it out asap! Me and the boys were outside (as usual) and they found a huge mud puddle so I thought it would make for some great pictures to show just how "boy" my boys truly are. They had fun splashing arounf in the mud and I had fun seeing the pure joy on their faces. I really like my new camera and hopefully they won't get too tired of me following them around taking pictures all the time!

Baseball season has begun....

Baseball season is definatly our favorite time of year. This year all 3 boys are playing, which needless to say, causes some fun but hecktick times around our house. They are all 3 on different teams in different age groups so we go from pre- t ball, to t-ball, to machine pitch. All the boys LOVE to play and we are so thankful because we LOVE to go watch them play. I know we are making great memories and I have loved getting to watch my little boys grow up on the ball field.

this is a sweet pic of Tanner & cousin Tilton

on the "green pre- t ball team"

Keller and his "girlfriend" Lindsay


And this is for sure my favorite, all my precious ball players!

I know it's gonna be a long hot season,

but I look forward to everytime they step out on that field!

Now & Then.... 9 year Anniversary!

Today is mine and Aaron's 9 year anniversary!! YAY!!!

I can't help but have a smile on my face today because God has blessed me with a wonderful husband that I am soooo very thankful for. He not only makes me a better person, but he is loving, a very hard worker, funny, and one incredible father to our three boys.

I look back at our wedding pictures from 9 years ago today and laugh a little. What a crazy day! First becasue it was sort of a "rush " thing, not many people other than our families knew we were getting married, our wedding was in one of Aaron's cousins house, the reception was at my parents house, our "honeymoon" was in Tyler, and I think my dad said our whole wedding cost about $600! That's pretty good considering most wedding dresses cost more than that!! But the funniest thing is how much we have changed...for better and for worst, right? Well change is going to happen, but it can be a good thing as long as you are doing it together becasue so many people now days give up and think that is the easy way out. But not us, our marriage is more than a wedding ceremony, it's a covenant between me, Aaron, and God! So I embrace this time in our lives and cherish each moment Aaron and I have together because God gave him to me to love from this day forward...

Spring is in the air!

Who doesn't LOVE spring time?
There are so many fun things to do this time of year before it gets so hot
not even my rowdy boys want to go outside.
The above pic is of me and Garrett at the livestock show in J'ville.


Then of course there is fishing, Keller is an expert at this, I however am NOT.

Garrett looking so cute in his life jacket

Tanner's favorite hat

all the boys in Big Daddy's boat

and never shall we forget playing on all the hay!
love this pic of my boys with Tilton & Bailey

Keller's spunky attitude and B with her arm around him!

Have a happy spring!
Life is about to get extremely busy for us.
All three boys are playing baseball this year.
I guess you could say we are either crazy
or just have a love of this sport like no other!

why do i love weston luke soooo much?

because he's too precious!
(and i can't wait to meet his new baby brother! coming in september 2010!)

Our Snow Days

These are pics from the 1st time it snowed.

(Still can't believe it's snowed this much in Texas.)

It was so pretty and the boys had a blast.

Other than the fact that since we don't have the usual

snow attire and their feet would get really cold

in just regular mud boots, they had a lot of fun.

Wish I would have had this one for our Christmas card, love them all bundled up!

Keller making his first ever snow angel.
The other boys weren't too sure about laying down in it since it was soooo cold.

My cutie Tanner Lane...

And sweet Garrett Ray...

He had about 4 layers of clothes on

I went out and took pics before the boys came outside because i knew once they played in it,

it would no longer look peaceful.
Showing how deep the snow is in my stylish mud boots.

all the boys toys covered in snow

Our front yard and driveway before anyone had disturbed the snow.

One of my favs from snow day because I love how the trees look with snow on them.

more front yard

showing the ice and snow on the roof

front of our house...love the way it looks so clean and quiet (but not for long)

Aaron and the boys soon came out to play and build a snowman. But I'm not posting pics of it for a reason, remember I live with 4 boys and they insisted on putting "extra" body parts on the snowman....after all it's called a snow"man", right??

Skateland USA

The boys were invited to a b-day party a few weeks ago @ Skateland USA. This place has been in j'ville forever, and everything looks exactly the same from when I was a little girl and would go there. Seriously, those skates are from at least the 70's!!

Keller's been to several parties there and is quite the skater, but Garrett and Tanner have never skated before and are a very different story!

just thought this is too cute to pass up

Keller showing off some cool moves


Tanner waiting for some cookie cake

Me helping Tanner get used to walking in skates;

and yes walking because his wheels were tightened.

now he's got it!!

break time for some brotherly love!! (My personal favorite!)

ok, now this was the good stuff, garrett and his best buddy tarrant.....

looks like they know what they are doing from this pic, but don't be fooled!!

Garrett thinks he's got it all under control
but oops!!

and here they are dancing, on their feet, until...
CRASH!....again

they repeated this move over and over and OVER! (for approx. 30 minutes!)

until they decided ENOUGH with the skating...

lets go play games

sharing a seat...so sweet.

i can only hope these moments happen more often

so after a LONG 30 minutes of "skating" and games,

these boys wanted you to see how tough they really are

don't you wish you could be this cool?
haha.....

Jason Aldean Concert

So me and the girls from work went to the Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan concert last

Saturday night....all I can say is that they are AWESOME! We went and ate Mexican food first...and had some yummy drinks....

Tiffany, Rosa,me, and Bea

me & Bea enjoying our night out
Me, Rosa, & her hubby, David
(no Aaron didn't go, he stayed home with the boys)


Tiffany having a good time

So I don't have the best camera, so any time they moved,

it was just blurry. But I still had to take some pics.

Luke B again

and finally..... Jason Aldean!!! If you don't know who he is, he sings "Big Green Tractor"
My boys know this song by heart & were totally jealous that I went.

This is a video I took from my camera,

really LOUD and not the best quality, but I had to video this for my boys!!
