Labor Day was really fun.. we headed to Papa and Grandma's for the weekend. They live on a lake up near Breckendridge and they have a great place. The first part we hung out celebrated past bdays and Papa's Bday was actually while we there so we celebrated that as well. Then Lawson and I headed to Mimi and Pop's house in Abilene, so the rest of the gang could have some serious fun on the lake. And that they did... Addison had an absolute blast and loved tubing behind the boat..It was a great weekend:)

Finally some Kindergarten Pics

So I got on Larry's computer and found the pics from the first day of school and some are from when we went to meet the teacher day as well. Enjoy:)

Addison's Kindergarten Pics

So here is the story I don't have pics to blog for Addie's first day bc we took all the pics with Larry's camera and he takes it with him to the club everyday.It is kind of frustrating but I love him anyway:) So here are some pics from her teacher of the whole class doing different things during the first week. I hope to get some pics off of his computer and put them up, but if not these will do. She is doing exceptional and just loves every minute of school. Today they went to the library and checked out books for the first time, she was so excited. Although she did choose a dinosaur book which is a little bit random...Anyway just click on this link and check it out:)

Boys will be boys

So here are some pics of little man being the boy that he is. He has a new 4 wheeler that Nonee bought him when he insisted...( our kids so know how to work their nonee) He loves this thing with a passion.. he sits on it for hours and makes the vroom sound with his mouth as well as with the button that also makes that sound... usually he throws a few growls in as well...Some of the other pics are him in the driver seat of his PaPa's boat (more pics to come on that).. he crawled right to that spot and immediatly began to imitate the noise of a boat and driving... they just have it in them it is hilarious... then you will see him playing in the "wa-wa" with his Mimi and his cousin Caden this weekend in Abilene... he is a magnet to mud, dirt, rocks, water, etc.. it is so funny how he finds and loves to get in it quickly, it amazes me as I watch this little guy how true it is that God made boys the way they are from day 1, who knew:)

Red River

So on my mom's birthday look to the post below:) on very short notice we left for the mountains for a celebration. WE decided to go around 2:00 and we were on the road with two kids by about 4:30. Wow that was crazy. But we were off and so very excited. The guys had to stay here for bus. reasons but the mom, the nonee and the kiddos were ready for adventure and believe me adventure we got:)We did all sorts of stuff and the kids just loved it there.
The first day we took a ride on the ski lift to the top of the mountain after being warned there was a 70% chance of rain and it got really cold if it did rain. No problem we put the kids on and took off... well the way up was just beautiful about 30 minutes of pure bliss just hanging out in God's amazing creation and then on the ride down the heavens opened up on us something fierce. It rained and hailed on us like you wouldn't believe, Lawson had been sleeping so sweetly unitl he was awakend by hail beating down on him..oops Not to meniton the lightening and the freezing cold wind that joined the rain. It was for sure a memory made that is all I am saying...
We just really enjoyed our time. We took the kids to play at the park, there was chili cook off with live music to enjoy, Addie Grace and Nonee went on a horseback ride up into the mountains, and Addis0n also did lots of other fun things. We also let the kids play in the rain, and in the river but that didn't last long bc it is really cold there already. It was so relaxing there and just plain good times..
