After a break...

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! We spent time with our families, went to see Horton Hears a Who, went to the Mavs game (they lost) and drove down to Glen Rose to Dinosaur Valley. We had a great time, climbing and exploring. The girls thought it was great, especially McKenna. Here are some pictures...

Here's a LO that I completed during the awesome SO crop. It was so much fun and I got alot done. Yea!

I'll post some Easter pictures after I get a chance to download them. The girls had a great time with Camry and Adi, hunting Easter eggs and just having a great time together!

Have a great day!

It's Friday!

And so begins Spring Break! I'm thinking about taking the girls to see the new Horton movie either next Monday or Tuesday, since it is supposed to rain. Chris is off next Thursday and Friday. We are headed to the Mavericks' game Thursday night. I'm excited because I haven't been to a game at the AAC. The girls are going to be entertaining Gram and Grampy that evening.
It's hard to believe that Easter is just about a week away. It's early this year! I went and bought candy for the girls' baskets yesterday. I'm hoping for a nice Easter...it was so cold last year! The girls didn't get to wear their Easter dresses until a few weeks later.
We are also looking forward to a visit from out Florida family! Nicole, Callie and Brent are coming at the end of the month-the girls are so excited to see their cousin!
Hope everyone has a great weekend-head over to Simply Obsessed...the big crop starts today!!

What is this foreign substance??

Oh, its called snow! And seriously, it coming down hard. We usually only get snow once a year and this is it. Honestly, I've never seen flakes this big-and I was in Iowa in January! Of course, about an inch of ice/slush is already covering the roads, so we can pretty much count on two things: no school and lots and lots of program interruptions to update us, you know that its snowing outside. I love the weather updates! Chris thinks that he could do just a good a job as the certified meteorologists-you know just taking a guess-haha. When McKenna and I went to pick up Caris, there were a total of 3 kids remaining in her class.

Just wanted to share some Texas weather with everyone!!

Cool Project

Here are some photos of the fabric-covered canvas that I made to organize and store all of the bows that Caris has. It was easy and I think it turned out pretty cute.

Happy Wednesday!

Hope everyone is having a great week-going towards the weekend! We are having our pictures made Saturday morning and then onto celebrate Doug and Camry's birthdays!! Doug turned 40 last Saturday and Camry will be 10 next week! She was just a baby when Chris and I got married and now she's 10? Where does time go?!? Then church on Sunday...
Still waiting on the car to be repaired after the wreck last Thursday. But I have a really nice rental car-2008 Toyota Highlander. Chris jokingly asked if I would want the van back-
Oh, and the guy who caused the accident doesn't have enough coverage for everyone that was involved(yikes-4 cars), so I have to file on my insurance as it being "underinsured". Boo on that! But the deductible is $250, not $500, so I guess that's something...
We finally got a new computer and the flat screen rocks!! Love it!
I have some new layouts that I need to post, just haven't gotten around to it...but head over to Simply Obsessed and check out the kit for March! It is fantastic-the colors are bold and vibrant! Can't wait to get it!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hope everyone has a great day and that you can share it with the ones you love!!
A big welcome to Preston!! He was born on Monday to proud parents Kourtney and Patrick-he is the cousin to Alivia and Andrew, who were welcomed in the last post. Congratulations to your family!!!
In other news, I have been fighting some kind of cold this week (Thanks Chris!) and haven't done much of anything. I was able to get all of the Valentine's goodies for the girls ready.
McKenna has class pictures today and her party. She also pulled another tooth on Tuesday! Awesome!!
Caris is the line leader today. They are having pizza and she is taking mini cupcakes for snack!! She is very excited!
Guess that pretty much sums it up! Hope everyone has a great day!

Welcome!!

Just wanted to say welcome to sweet new babies: Alivia and Andrew Nacar! They were born yesterday afternoon, about 9 weeks early, but are doing well. My friend Kristen just had her shower on Saturday. I said to her, we didn't think on Saturday that you would be a Mom today. Congratulations to Kristen and Chris!! These two will surely bless your lives!

Chris has started training for this year's MS 150. It will take place the first weekend in May. This will be his 3rd year to ride and it is something that he really looks forward to during the year.

Here's a cute picture of Caris...

Have a great day!
