1st day of school!!

 
We went back to school today. It was AWESOME! My friends were in my class so it made it pretty good.

 

 
Trace goes to his new school now. He has to get up SUPER early and catch the bus when its still dark.

 
Trace and Avalanche(who hopped a ride in his backpack all day)

6 Years Ago-

I started this blog August 16th 2006. I made it so family and friends could keep up with the kids no matter near or far we were. It was before the Facebook land and Twitter. I had got tired of circulating pics in emails and sometimes forgetting people. I wanted a place where anyone could go and see the pics and feel connected. I almost ALWAYS write from the childrens view point to make it more fun. Also in hopes that in about 2 more years Tea can take it over and be the blogger and leaving me as editor. ;)

So thank you to all our followers and readers! please continue to watch us grow and live! now i will leave you with a few links to some of my favorite past blog posts/pictures.

(this one because it has my brother, Uncle Erich, in it who has now passed away from Colon Cancer)

(this because TRace was into "scary" stuff and at 2 wanted to be a skelton)

Middle of summer!


The week Trace went to Sea Camp at Texas State Aquarium, Mom and I went horse back riding on the beach. It was great, but my butt hurt a lot afterward!


Me getting ready!


Me and puggy!


One of Dads days off we went to Aransas Pass, TX and Port Aransas.


Stopped at "Shell World".


Took a ride on our first ferry from Aransas Pass to Port A. to eat lunch!



This is the public pool in Aransas Pass, it was pretty much the whole reason we went out that day.


It had water slides and 3 pools to swim in!


Texas Road House family night.


Chuckie E Cheese! They got a bunch of new games.


Dads work rented the pool suite at What-a-burger field again so of course we went to swim!
