Blue what?

Bluebonnets that's what! Awww man...I said 'THE WORD" "The word" would be "Bluebonnets" A couple of weeks ago while running I saw the first one I'd seen this year and literally out loud said, "Yea, bluebonnets!!" Then thought to myself Uh-Oh, I just said "the word" so, then, only for my mom, I had to sing the song (out loud, of course) I know she was up there listening and laughing right along with me!

Here's the song...

Bluebonnets, Bluebonnets with your coat so blue

Your white eyes are shining through the silvery dew

I know you're a dolly waiting for the rain

And I know you'll return again to Texas in the spring

For those who don't know, my mom learned this song in 2nd grade choir. It wouldn't matter where we were...in the middle of the mall or in the car, she would sing (sometimes yell) the words to this song. It became her mission every year when the bluebonnets were out to get someone to say the word. So, now, of course, I cannot wait carry on the tradition and embarrass Hunter with this same song!

Busy Weekend!

We had such a busy weekend this past weekend. Friday night Lee and I went to the Rodeo and had fun even though I never got my funnel cake! :( Hunter spent the night at NaNa and Papa Bear's house and I'm sure had tons of fun. Saturday it was Hunter's best friend's birthday, so we enjoyed a party at the park for Irie who turned 3. Sunday the Easter bunny came and Hunter had a blast with the eggs. We had breakfast with some friends who we hadn't seen in forever and then dinner with Lee's family. By Sunday night, we were all worn out!

The Easter bunny brought Hunter some pretty cool sunglasses and some way cool camo eggs...

AVP???

What does that stand for, you ask? Well, that would be Lee's new title at the bank. On Thrusday Lee got a surprise promotion and is now an Assistant Vice President at Woodforest Nat'l Bank!!! How awesome is that??!! Hunter and I are so proud of you and love you very much, Daddy!

Wedding Weekend

This past weekend one of my bestest friends, Kristin got married to the love of her life, Clayton. The wedding was beautiful and so much fun! We got into Austin on Friday and stayed with our friends, Kristen and Brian Bruno, who are now Kristin's sister and brother-in-law. Hunter totally wore not only himself, but both of us out as well. I knew that kid had energy, but not this much! He ate up every bit of attention that was given to him. By the end of the rehersal dinner he had taken sips of a groomsman's water right out of hand and started passing out water to everyone. At the wedding, he wasn't still for more than 2 minutes! Who knew running in circles could be so entertaining, even at 11:45pm!? At least he slept in a little on Sunday...NOT!! How do you get a child to sleep in??? :)

Our Weekend:

On Friday when we got there Hunter decided to water the plants and Kristen & Brian's. He had fun with this and didn't want to stop!

On Saturday morning Kristen made us some VERY YUMMY chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast! Hunter really liked them. He even cleaned up his mess when he was done.

The Family

Houston Rodeo

Last Friday, C.C. and I ventured out of 'The Woodlands Bubble" with our kids and drove down to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. We made it through some traffic and crazy drivers and didn't even get lost! Go Us!! It was a good thing the AGventure and kids stuff was all inside because it was SUPER cold and way windy that morning! Once we finally got inside and took a look at our surroundings, we realized there had to be 500 schools, 50,000 kids, and oh, maybe 10 adults in that place. So, before we ate lunch we tried to see what we could, then ate some lunch, enjoyed some dip n' dots, then headed back to the animals. The schools were gone (most of them) so we enjoyed the little extra space and the kids actually got to look at and pet the animals. The petting zoo was a big hit with Hunter as was the little baby chicks. We actually got to see them hatching...what a cool thing to see! On the way home, Hunter was asleep in about 10 min, and from what I hear Parks didn't even make it that long before he was snoozin'.

Future Rodeo Clowns?

The Petting Zoo...

Look Mena! I can drive one too!


















When are you getting one at your house Pa Pa?

So, this was right after Hunter was taken off the TOP of the fridge...boys!

A cool elmo light-up spin toy. He makes me go into the bathroom and turn the lights off so he can see the lights
