But for now, you can keep up with my line through The Brown Bobbin's Blog www.thebrownbobbin.blogspot.com Please take a look, let me know what you think and please spread the word! Also if you pick up your order is $5 off :-)

This weekend we went camping at Sandy Creek Park in Jasper, Texas with my parents - Gran and Pa Paw. The boys had so much fun!

Will - 6 years old....and growing too fast. He looks so grown up right here!

This pretty much sums up what they did the entire weekend - played with the fire.

Zoo

I forgot to add these pictures. Yesterday we had a picnic lunch and walked to the zoo. If you haven't had a chance to make it out to see the newest zoo exhibit you all should go! The African section is so good! Hope you enjoy these pictures. This was Simon's first visit to the zoo. He is such a happy baby!

Boys at the zoo.

Christmas and 2011

Monday, January 3, 2011
Christmas has come and gone and we are now beginning 2011. It will be hard for me to get use to writing 2011. We had a great Christmas and both families were able to come to Katy to visit us instead of going to Lake Charles. The boys stayed in their pajamas all of Christmas day just playing with their toys and enjoying family time. We spent 2 nights in San Antonio and had so much fun, we just love that city. We rang in the New Year at 8PM with friends and all of our kiddos with yummy gumbo.
Yesterday after mass we spent the day at the zoo and had a jambalaya picnic at the park. Thomas and Will ended the day at the Texans game. I think Will's favorite part every time is the concession stands! We have had such an amazing year and here's to many more memories and blessings here in Texas :-)

My boys and I at the Alamo bowl game - Arizona vs Oklahoma - VIP style :-)
