Denae

Okay, I couldn't resist posting some more recent pics of my baby. Kids are so fun to photograph at this age. It's like they can't take a bad picture. And Denae loooves to have her picture taken. She really hams it up! Grandma and Poppa, these pics are for you! Hope you like them!

Our borrowed pet

Hey, Denise! These pics are for you! My kids are sure enjoying taking care of your "baby" while ya'll are on vacation. These pics are from last week. It didn't take long for Denae to warm up to Bo, and Dallas has taken a real ownership of the dog. He takes his turn feeding, checking water, and basically spends all day outside playing with Bo. He makes sure Bo rests too, finding nice, cool, shady places for him to lay down and then sitting beside him, petting him. The girls play with him too, but with school, quizzing, etc they don't have as much time. The kids are really going to miss him when take him home. Now we'll have to get a dog!

Easter 2009

Easter Egg Hunt

Sunday was at our house with Kevin's family and Carlos, Denise, and kids. We had more fun grilling out and then the kids enjoyed an Easter Egg hunt in the back yard.

I think the kids were pretty happy with all the 'treasures' they had found!!

Coloring Easter Eggs

On Saturday we went to Kathy's to color Easter Eggs, have a Easter Scrapbook page contest, and enjoy grilling out and homemade ice cream. We had a great time.

For those of you wondering, yes Austin is in a wheelchair. He broke the top of his femur and had to have surgery. He gets around on crutches a lot, but has a chair, too.

Singing and stuff

Just wanted to post a couple of pics of Delaney singing a solo with the kids choir. She did a great job and we are proud of her. I wish I had a video clip to post, but I don't. I know the pictures are dark but you get the idea. The firs pic is a zoom in on Delaney and the second is a picture showing more of the choir in the loft and the chorale holding mics.

And of course, I have to add some pics of my 'baby' who will be 3 soon. She really does love the camera and enjoys making lots of faces.

Dallas turned 5 years old

On Feb 13, Dallas turned 5 yrs old. Here are some pics of his birthday celebration and a few of his gifts.

The fireman raincoat was a Christmas present from Aunt Kathy, so she got him matching rain boots for his Birthday.
Cool! A fishing pole and lures (he got a tackle box too!)

Pics of Thanksgiving since the slideshow wouldn't work

There are a lot of pics, but not as many as I had in my slide show. They are also mixed up and out of order. Sorry about that. Hope you like the pics though.
