Katherine is amazing at taking pictures! She has raw talent that is hard to find these days. We had so much fun shooting these pictures, and I am so glad they captured the kids' personalities.

All Aboard!

 

 

 

For playgroup Friday I met some friends down at the Train Musuem in Fair Park. We got so lucky that the rain stopped just long enough for us to enjoy the giant trains. Clayton had a lot of fun playing around and in the trains, but I do think the size overwhelmed him quite a bit.

Cowboys Dont Take Baths!

 

 

This phrase sums up my little boy all too well! The only problem is he doesn't like to have a single spec of dirt on him either.
I had seen this phrase in Canton a while back and really wanted it for Clayton's room, but didn't know where to find it again. Well it worked out so well that a great friend started making vinyl wall signs and designed it for me- it is absoulutely a perfect personal touch to his room.
She is very talented and shipping is super fast so look her up if you are ever looking for that extra something around the house. www.perfectlyspaced.com

Boys and Their Toys

Clayton's best friend Gray came over and Jason thought it would be fun to get his remote control jeep out. Proof that boys never do grow up.

Piercing Update


Yesterday we met Jason at our favorite lunch hangout, Freebirds. As I am paying for our lunch Sara tells the guy at the register that she loves his jewel on his cheek. He says yes that is my bling bling- Sara's favorite term. She informs him that her mean mom will not let her get bling bling all over her face. He tells her maybe when she gets older. Then I realize that every person that works there has multiple face piercing. Maybe this is another place she is getting ideas on piercing. And it is our absolute favorite place to eat so I guess I will just have to accept that one day she might come home with metal poking out of her face all because I wouldn't give up freebirds.

Hotter Than Hell



Jason completed his first ever bike race. It just happened to be 100 miles in the middle of Texas in August. Crazy I know. But he wasn't the only one, apparently there were 14,000 other lunatics riding 100 miles in the heat with him. They lucked out with a nice cold front with the temperature starting in the mid 60's and ending in the 90's. The only difference between Jason and the other 14,000 people is that he did absolutely nothing to prepare. He just decided on a whim a few days before that this might be fun and went and rode 100 miles, when the furthest he had ever ridden prior to this was 40 miles. It was a challenge, Jason had a blast and of course we are proud that he came home unharmed- you know besides some super tired muscles.
