Evan's 1st Birthday

We celebrated Jocey's 14th birthday and Evan's 1st tonight. We invited Tasha to come see the kids which they all enjoyed! We got Evan his own cake to eat but was not really into it. He did not like the taste of it and cried. So, we gave him ice cream....he loves that stuff! Emma took care of most of Evan's cake, and as you can see in the picture below of her...she ate most of it in one bite! Jonathan and Amber got Evan a little horse to bounce on. He seems to really like it.


And yes, that is a picture of Jonathan with a bow in his hair...at least he didn't have makeup on this time.

Emma's School Thanksgiving Celebration

I went and visited Emma for her Thanksgiving lunch at school today. All the kids were dressed up and they sang songs for the parents. They did very good and Emma actually sang....some. For being our most outgoing child she was pretty quiet but she still did great! We ate like the Pilgrims did many years ago and had Chik-Fil-A. See the video of her performance too.

Austin Trip

Last week was Greg’s birthday, so Levi, Josh and I took him down to Austin for our now annual trip. We went down to see UT play K-State, and relax in the Guadalupe River. The river was great, there were literally 6 other people on the river. Normally it is packed, but for some reason hardly anyone was there. The game however was not that good. UT lost 20-41. The college football experience is fun though. We did get to meet up with Pat Culpepper (#31 in the photo below) who was the 1961 and 62 Co-Captain of the UT football team, Rebel and the rest of their crew. They are a great bunch of guys, that tail-gate every home game and just know Texas football.
Levi, Me, Pat, Greg, Josh

Ethan's First Day of School

Today is a big day in Ethan's life, as he starts school. He was so excited this morning. I went upstairs to wake him up this morning. I pat him on the chest saying, "Ethan, time to get up" very softly....and had no response. I then said, "Ethan, time to get up for school" and he shot up like a rocket.

We took him into class this morning and he did great. He wasn't scared at all. Actually, I think he was trying to take it all in. His best friend in the whole world Morgan is in his class. We are glad she is in his class, they get along great. Ethan has an instant buddy on the first day.

Now Emma is the boss of the house, with Ethan at school. Although she would probably tell you she is the boss even when he is here.

Kara's Birthday

Today is Kara's "29th" birthday, and to celebrate it we went to the Greatest Show on Earth!!!! Kara really wanted to take Ethan and Emma to the Circus and opening night just happened to be on her birthday. To begin the evening, we went to Tin Star in Downtown Dallas then we headed over to the Circus. Ethan's favorite part of the show was watching the tigers. Emma's was when they brought out some dogs to do some tricks and they played "Who Let the Dogs Out?" One of the dogs walked around on it's back legs the whole time. All of the animals were amazing to see and performed many tricks. Kara's favorite part of the evening had nothing to do with the Circus. While taking Emma to go potty, she got to see Troy Aikman out in the concourse.


On Friday, we went to Kobe Steak's to celebrate Kara's birthday. As always, we ate too much.
