Christmas Season 2007

The Polar Express Train in Grapevine, TX

The whole family on the Polar Express. What a fun night we had.

The boys on the train.

The conductor was great. He even came along and punched our tickets.

This was a lot harder than it looked. Carson would not be still long enough to take a picture with mommy. Finally one to keep.

Daddy and Carson acting silly.

Mommy and Cameron had to take a picture too.

Daddy had to dance to a song in the aisle of the train. Anyone without a child in their lap was recruited. I must have grabbed Cameron just at the right time. Of course he was a great sport.

We sang Christmas songs the whole time on the train.

Ms. Claus stopped and took a picture with Daniel and Carson.

Thanksgiving

Here are the boys with their Aunt Mel and Uncle J. We love spending time with them.

The Cousins

We did Christmas early with my sister and her family from Colorado. The girls are so cute and our boys loved playing with them. The grandkids doubled this year with two new additions to the family since last Christmas. What a miracle and joy they all are. Nana and Papa J's house was wilder and crazier this year, but we loved being there all together.

Thanksgiving

This is Meme and Cameron on Thanksgiving night. She was so excited to see the boys. She wanted Cameron in her lap as soon as we got there. She broke her shoulder a few months ago and could not hold him the last time she saw him.
This was our first Thanksgiving without my grandfather and we all missed him dearly.

Soccer

Carson and Papa J after the last game.

Soccer

Carson and the team finished with a winning season. He had a great time learning the game.

Cameron

This is Cameron talking and being silly. I love when he does that with his nose.

Halloween

Carson really got into this. He wanted me to get the stuff out with my hands, but he wanted to use his big spoon. I know that does not surprise most of you. Daddy did the carving, and Carson wanted the pumpkin to have a scary face. It really turned out pretty good. Cameron joined in all the fun in his highchair. Carson loved turning all the porch lights out and lighting the pumpkin up at the end. What a fun night we had.

My Little Teddy Bear

This was one of the colder days we had to take Carson to school, so Cameron had to sport his new teddy bear hat. Oh yes, and of course with his pacifier too. What a cutie he is!!!

My Buddies

Cathy, Cameron and I finally made it to SMU to see the girls finish the walk. What a closing ceremony that was.

Here is Liz and Wendee after they finished the 3 day cancer walk(60 miles). We are so proud of them. They walked in honor of their moms surviving breast cancer. Way to go girls!!

The Boys

Well we tried to get a normal looking shot. If you know Carson well you know that he always has to kiss his brother.

Pumpkin Patch

This was Cameron's first pumpkin patch experience. Carson loved showing him around.

Nana and Papa J

This was Cameron's first visit to Nana and Papa J's in Wills Point Labor Day weekend. We love Nana and Papa J bunches and love to spend time with them.

School Days

This was Carson's first day of school at Cross Timbers Christian Preschool in September. He loves Pre-K and is having a great year.

Soccer Fall 2007

This is Carson's first season to play a team sport and Daniel's first time to coach. What a fun season we are having.

Broken Bow Lake

Look at this beauty. It will absolutely take your breath away.

Paddle Boats

On our last day, we did some driving out by the lake and found this paddle boat rental. Daniel and Carson had a good time doing that together. Of course Daniel doing all the work. Boy, did his legs hurt afterwards.

Carson and Cameron

Here is another thing Carson loves to do and it is new. He can make Cameron laugh out loud.

Carson and Daddy

He loved fishing with daddy at the pond. They finally caught a little perch.

Mommy and Carson

Carson had his favorite things this weekend. Playing in the hot tub with mommy was one of them.

Broken Bow Lake Trip

This is our first blog. Just wanted everyone to see what a great time we had this past weekend. Everyone needs to go and get away sometime to these cabins. They are great and the area is beautiful.
