8 year olds - Happy Happy Birthday, Babies

Happy Happy 8th Birthday to my sweet boys.  You are my pride and joy.  Words could never express how much I love you.

December Happenings

My little guys got to lead the Elementary in the pledges,





We endured a lot of cold football games to get to the state game.

 We got into the Christmas spirit.

We got to hang with the jolly fat man and tell him our Christmas wishes.

State Football Game

 Have we told you how much we love football around these parts?  Our favorite team, the Braves made it to state this past weekend and we followed them all the way to Dallas to cheer them on.  Unfortunately, they didn't come away with a win on this game, but we think they are winners for just making it this far!  We go to see a lot of friends while we were there, and Hunter even lost a tooth while were were inside AT&T Stadium.  I think Chris may have had more fun than anyone just being there.

Heath and Hunter's First Bucks

 Over Thanksgiving Break, Heath and Hunter both got their first bucks while we were in San Saba.  As luck would have it, they both got 7 points.

Heath - Junior Brave

My little man, Heath, is having such a wonderful year.  He loves his teacher and is making good grades.  He even got to be November's Junior Brave!

I Voted

I believe that this election will be monumental between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.  I just wanted to document that I VOTED!

Halloween 2016

The twin went as Peter Pan and his Shadow for Halloween this year.  Super Fun!

Deer Camp with Daddy

Chris took the boys camping a few weeks ago because he felt they needed to experience a real "deer camp."  They had a blast, even though they were only about 3 miles from our house.  I joined them for hot dogs and s'mores and then I went home and went to bed.

The boys packed their own bags and when they got there, we found out there was only books and stuffed animals in the suitcases.  They got a little cold during the night and all three of them ended up in one sleeping bag.  It was a memory that they will never forget.

Flag Football

The boys are having a blast playing flag football this year. Chris and Kurt are their teams coaches. Go Texans!

Busy August and September

Meet Kimber

We got the boys a dog of their very own. Meet Miss Kimber. She is a yellow just like Warden. Chris and I decided that the boys needed a dog of their own, one that would follow them around all the time. She is the sweetest little thing, and so far she's been perfect. She can already retrieve, and doesn't shy away from gunshots.

Game Wardens are Awesome

Chris and I had the chance to go to Austin and watch a good friend graduate from the Texas Game Warden Academy.  We also got to meet up with some friends that we haven't seen in a really long time.  It was tons of fun!

Church Services

One day during the summer. the boys decided that we needed to have church services.

Hunter led the singing.

Heath lead the opening prayer.

Heath preached.

The invitation song.

The best part of the whole thing was when it was all over, Heath announced that we have 7 minutes until we start again.  Which is always how Pew Packers ends.  Love it!

River Trip

Our annual trip to the river was blissful, as usual.  The boys received a youth kayak for their birthday, and had a blast paddling up and down the river.

Zane won the Bass Tournament.

The boys caught fish and I read 4 book.  My idea of Heaven.

San Antonio

As a family, we had a chance to get away to San Antonio.  It was so nice being able to relax and have fun.  We rode the river boat and stayed at a hotel right on the river walk.  We went to the Alamo.

The boys love the trampoline park and the Top Golf.  We also threw in a trip to Schlitterbahn, but I didn't get any pictures of that.

Busy Summer

We had a blast this summer, and as usual, I don't want it to end.  Here are a few of the highlights.

We went camping and boating with our besties, The Hannas.

The boys received a set of kid knives as a gift.  They can't cut themselves with them.  They helped cook supper.  My budding little chefs.

We went swimming.  A lot.  One day this summer, we went to the Ozona pool with friends.  It was super fun!
