Gig'em Aggies

The kids had their first experience at The Chicken today. We were craving hamburgers and decided to go up there and witness the game day action. Luckily, we got a table on the porch and they never even had to go inside!

A Scary Day

My mom, Ally and I were driving to Kroger's yesterday when my brother called my cell phone (my mom left hers at the house) and said that he had been in an accident and needed us to come and get him. About that time a fire truck pulled out in front of us and I told my mom to follow it. This is what we saw when we pulled up. Needless to say, we were very worried about Justin. Thankfully, God was with him (there is just no other way to explain it) and he walked away without a scratch!!!

Justin was going straight on George Bush when a car pulled out in front of him at the intersection by Olsen Field. He slowed down, just in time for another car to run the light, turn the corner and swipe his truck. It spun his truck around, he hit the curb and rolled into the fence. He is very lucky the pole didn't go through the driver's side window, and even more lucky that he didn't have a passenger with him!!! Like I said, God was him and we are so very, very thankful!! We love you, Bubba!

Chocolate Mess

This is what happened when a certain Uncle Bubba gave this little girl a piece of chocolate when her mommy wasn't looking!!!

Happy Birthday Ally!

I cannot believe that my baby girl turned two today! Seriously, where has the time gone???

I love this girl to pieces, and I can't wait to see what God has in store for her in the future!

Male Bonding

Sam has been waiting patiently every year for me to give him the okay to take Carter dove hunting with him. Even though I wasn't thrilled about the idea, I caved and let him go. Carter stayed in the truck with Daisy, and although Sam only got one bird (because they got there late), they both had a lot of fun doing "manly" things. Ally wanted to go, too, but I convinced her that hunting was only for boys so she "got" to stay home with me! We had fun eating frito pie and making cookies while the boys were gone.

Too Cool For Words

School Days

Today was the the first day of school for Carter and Ally! They will both be attending school on Tuesdays and Thursdays this year, which means that I will have a little time to do fun things like go to the grocery store, gym and mall by myself (exciting, right?)! It is hard to believe that both my "babies" are in school - can someone please freeze time for me?

Carter is going to the same preschool that Sam went to when he was younger. It is an amazing school, and I know that he will grow to love it as much as I do! He was so excited (and ready) to be back at school this morning!

Ally is going to school for the first time this year. The teacher said she did great on her first day, and only cried for about 5 minutes when she realized I left and wasn't coming right back. Although she is the oldest child in the class, I know she is going to love going (especially because her big brother goes to school, too!).
