It has been ages........

Well it has been about 5 mths since I have last wrote on this site. Since then, we are living in Austin, Texas and we love it. We do miss Colorado who wouldn't, but they are already getting snow, so we do not miss that yet. Austin is a pretty cool town and does not look anything like what I would have pictured Texas to look like. Anyone who has been here understands what I mean.

We have had a few visitors already and we love that we have seen Grandpa & Memaw at least once a month maybe a little more! The Babineaux's came to visit that was a trip that we have been waiting for a little over 8 years or so! Brittni, Thomas, Karson and Maw-Maw were here and that was a lot of fun. I made it to Louisiana for Nanny's retirement party! I will be traveling to see Lori for her Birthday...I am really going to see Luke! Jenna is going to Fredrickburg and I am hoping to catch up with her for lunch on Friday. We were able to spend the 4th at Kim and Jeff's, that was a blast...............all of this was worth the move and so many more years of memories to be made. Alex made the comment last time my Dad and Lisa left, Mom this is so cool why did we not do this a long time ago?

Updates on the kiddos, they are growing......Alex is a teenager and is in the 7th grade. If you did not know she also knows everything and I do not understand. Still playing Soccer and is running Cross Country for her school, she did awesome in the last meet. She is doing great in school, and I know thanks to this cool Gradespeed connection they have in Texas!

Jack is in Pre-K and he loves his teacher Ms. Mindy.......he was invited to his second Birthday party and we had a ball at the Childrens Museum(we had it all to ourselves). He is playing Flag football......gotta love the comedy on the field on Saturday mornings, James worked the chains this morning...talk about a tough job.

Tyler is also in as she calls it school, they just moved her to the 3 year old class because of her coloring skills........we are so proud. I taught her all she knows. Who cares that she can not say her ABC's its all about the coloring skills. Go Tyler! She colors on EVERYTHING and goes through coloring books like crazy. James found his mouse and computer screen a beautiful neon yellow color(highlighter) and as I was looking for the evidence I found a hanger that was the same neon color.....I asked Tyler where is the marker you had, she runs in to the closet and buried under something she pulls it out and pointed to another hanger and said look Mom this one was already yellow and it was. By bed spread is a beautiful brown and blue with hints of neon yellow in random places.

As you can see we are all surving the move and everyone is adjusting well. Hugs to all and we can not wait for our visit with Lola, her first time here.
