Kids Pictures

We went to sears today and took pics of the kids. Dylan only was able to sit through 1 1/2 sittings. He lost interest in the whole thing and wanted to venture where all of the people were. Not in the studio. Anyways this pic of dylan and Ash was the best one. Ashley looks beautiful as always.

Happy Halloween

This was Dylan's first Halloween and we dressed him up as a penguin. My best friend Angela said just because he is black and white does not mean he should be a penguin. Ashley was a twisted cheerleader in black and white with this crazy wig. Derek and I did not dress up. We went trick or treating around where we live and there were a lot of people out. Our friends and their kids joined us and their neighbors were also there. So we had a big crowd with us.

Out to the country we go........

On our last full day in Texas we went to Lovelady, that is in the “country” to visit Derek’s Papa. It was a 2 hour drive with the family, but we left early and got there safe. On the drive we saw the statue of Sam Houston looking like a pimp with his cane and all. Along the way we stopped at a small place and had some breakfast.

Papa fell in love with Dylan and wanted us to leave him there. I am sure that Dylan would have loved to live there in the country with him. Hunting, fishing and being outdoors everyday, but I could not leave him there yet.

Ashley would love it there too the time we there she was in her element. She was playing in the dirt and wanted to ride the 4 wheeler but none of knew how to work it and good thing because Ashley can be accident prone and that is all we needed was to have something happen. She saw a dog that was on his last leg and wanted to play with the diseased dog, but we stopped her before she could.

Papa told Dylan they would go down to the corner store(probably the only store) to get ice cream and then they would go hunt some coon’s. He told us that when we came back that he would not even know who we were. Sorry Papa next time you can have the little booger. It was nice to get to see Derek’s family but I think we were all ready to get back to Cali. So we headed back to Nina’s to get our 6 bags packed for our trip home the early the next morning.

The whole family was exhausted by the end of the day. Dylan was teething and we to bed early with his big mama and Ashley went to do some last minute shopping with Derek and I. But when we got back from our shopping she fell out almost immediately.
