Relay for Life 2011

I finally got pictures from Misti from Relay, but for some reason not all of them downloaded. Anyway, here are a few. Our team was dressed in all purple, hence the hats, capes, glasses, bracelets, and so on. We looked pretty rediculous, but we had a great time, and our team raised over $8500 for the year making us #1 this year!!          ~Poor Randi's t-shirt was so huge on her, so my Mom cut off the sleeves and turned it into a dress for her! Turned out pretty cute I think!~

This is James 'working' in the ice cream truck!

Our ridiculous family photo!!!! HAHA! Matt, Randi, Dad, Misti, Happy, Amanda, Mindy, JJ, Me, James, & Daniel

The HEB Cancernators fighting cancer!!!! (It was like 3am, we were delirious!)

Silly Girl Showing Off

Our big girl has just about mastered her spoon, and is doing pretty good with a fork too. This particular day, she was showing me how well she can eat her 'applesauce', which is a favorite of hers. Not that it's a favorite food to eat, but it's a favorite word of her's to SAY! So silly!!

Swimming at the Kroc Center

A

While Aunt Moozer & Uncle Brandon were in town last week, we took the kiddos to the  Kroc Center (sponsored by the Salvation Army)  in town. This place is not just a gym, but it also has a waterpark outside and a church inside. The kids loved it. James really wanted to try the giant water slide, but is still about a foot shy of getting on that ride. This summer he is not at all fond of getting his eyes wet (whether in the tub, the sprinkler, or the pool). So, in the background you can kind of see the kids playscape in the middle of the pool that is equipped with 3 waterslides, water cannons, and sprinklers. But...because there are also giant buckets of water overhead that fill up and then dump out on your head, he refused to play on it...at all! Maybe he will warm up to the idea as the Texas weather gets hotter and hotter, for now we will enjoy wading in a couple of inches of water and playing on the baby slide I guess. As usual, Aunt Moozer got some much better pics than I did, but I can't figure out how to pull them off of FaceBook anymore. :-(

Some of the great things about living in Kerrville.......

Unplanned outings with cousins

Sleepovers & movie nights with Kaycee

I am terrible about using my camera these days. If Aunt Moozer is around, I always just know that I can get copies of pics from her. (This is the only reason I have any Easter pics!!) I will post Easter pics with Kaycee soon, (have to get copies from Aunt Amber first!!!). And, I will try to do better about using my camera. Need some with Amber, Sam, and M'Nina for  sure!!!
