Friday Morning at home....

Finally a cool morning to sit out in the backyard and enjoy the morning. We taught Max how to say Acorn....remember this story---Poor Ava Lou!

Uncle Kelly got Max this String Cheese Incident onesie...what a cool dude and uncle.

Then Miss Ava arrives with her outfit. She told me she wanted to get dresses herself so 1/2 an our later here she arrives. Dun-Dun-dunnnnnnnnnnnn!

Playing with the moon on the tree...



Our week trip to Lubbock!!!

Last week our planned weekend trip to Lubbock turned into a week trip...which is just fine with us. Matthias flew in on Friday and we visited with family, went to the Tech game and ate a bunch....These were all out side of Guthrie getting into the 6666 ranch...
Averi, Hays, Pat, Kenda and the crew we're out at their grandmothers gathering the night before their dad Bill's funeral. Kenda was calling as I was driving through all of this so I had to grab the camera and take some pictures as I headed into West Texas....

Driving though the storm...

We finally got us a dual dvd player for the car....what the heck took me so long to do this? Seriously, as many road trip as we go on, I can't believe I hadn't done it sooner--stuck in 1989 I guess...
My little back seat travelers do so good...especially with some Nemo or Bambi love....
These we're all Wed. night hanging at The Office....
Britta was getting the master plan on "I hate Eric Fisher day"
Averi and her long time friend Rachel
Pat giving me the eye and Champ talking business....
Stacy and I chilling
Model pose
Friday, we started out at the Science Spectrum before Matthias arrived. Ava was so excited to be back at her birthday place....good times and no one there---Perfect!




Final pictures from the Tech game on Saturday. Saw a ton of old friends--Jack Robertson, Kathy Wood, Vangie Serinel and many many more!

Tech won and of course we spent most of our time catching up in the Pavillion...

Little Red Raider Girl--Ava Lou!

Max's first Day of School!

Max 1 year ago.........aghhhh
On our way to school....look how happy he is....
Hanging in the hallway before class.
Here's the crying that began when he saw that I was leaving....
At 2 he was sound asleep on his nap mat....what a big boy....

Mr. Max had his first day of school today....okay well Mother's Day Out(MDO). He was so excited to get to Ava's school as I think he remembered dropping her off last year and never wanting to leave. So, today when it was time to leave him he kinda changed his mind....a few tears later his teacher Ms. Joan said he did great. Only crying when he got sleepy for nap time. Let the Fall season begin....Tue/Thur 9-2 yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

This is a typical scene around here....

When Matthias gets home and especially after a trip our kids are all over him. I didn't get my camera quick enough but Max was sitting on his chin at one point...too cute! Enjoy!

A couple of things to watch for:
#1-Ava's laugh
#2-Matthias apparently doesn't realize I'm shooting this video and encountered a knee...whoops!
#3-Max assumes the position very well....anytime we read he get up and waits for Matthias to open his arm so he can get in reading position...Everytime.

Supporting our Tech Exes!! Go Zach

Zach Thomas

Go Cowboys!!!!

I had a date with my husband Friday night....Yep, a date. We dropped the kids with Kena and Philip and headed to Texas Stadium for a Pre season Cowboys game against the Houston Texans.
Enjoy!Arriving to the soon to be history Texas Stadium...
We left Richardson at 5ish and made it to Irving in like 30 mins. We we're so surprised. Dallas, 5 o'clock traffic are you kidding me....SWEET!

Really fun night, especially when the first tailgate party you run into is the Miller Lite tailgate party which includes food, drinks, music and plenty of people watching.

Matthias showing off his new Cowboys cap...
Very Electric while the team ran out....Very hot too....ick....

Then this happened. During the first couple of plays. Two Texas ran into each other and a guy was down for 20 minutes...no movement--nada. I'll tell you it put everything back into perspective.....this happens a lot for me lately.
Harry Williams a fellow teammate and laid motionless on his stomach. This was the scene 15 minutes into it. Notice how the team finally made it out closer onto the field.
T.O. moved out to the side by himself the whole time....
Romo was the first Cowboy up close asking questions....
I thought wow, how can they go on....but its a game and the games must go on...see Romo and T.O. in the back....think they must have thought this too.
And off he went on the stretcher, the ambulance took him away and the game continued....
Story here
Celebrating after a touchdown!!!!
Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders entertaining as usual....not sure how they move the way they do???
The Stamps suite....top row, second over...
Into the 2nd quarter we' were close for a touchdown....

Come on Tony you can do it!!!!
NOPE, INTERCEPTION>>>>>>>>>>ugh!!!
A guy who happens to be a photo-taken type dude like me said give me that and I'll get a few of you guys in action.....here's what we got. This was after Amendola returned a kick off...for like 15 yards or something.
Oh and we met a really fun couple from Amarillo who had just moved to the DFW area and were attending their first Cowboys game. We sat with them 1/2 of the game....then left for dinner in the 4th quarter...
