OH MY GOODNESS.....

So, it's been a WHILE since I updated this blog....I REALLY want to get back to it, but with Facebook, it seems a little redundant, but I'm doin' it anyway!!!

This past weekend we went to the beach with Gee and Paw. Most of you know that my Dad is fairly ill. He can't travel like they used to, and the beach may be as far as they can go anymore. My kids love the beach, so we joined them. They have been there for a week, we visited the weekend.

What happened while we were there:

the condo (and all the condos on the beach side) lost water
Jack fell off the golf cart and skinned his head
we ate "alfresco" at Fishtales in gale force winds
Gee's battery in her car died on Sunday after lunch
we found more shells than we ever have, cool ones, not ordinary ones
the kids played in the surf in NOVEMBER in Galveston
FUN fun FUN
games of Candyland, some cheating going on....
lots of writing by Claire Bear
Here are some pictures:

So I missed the entire months of January and February...wow!!! OK, brief updates...we've been busy, growing and WELL!!! I had my 41st birthday in January (that was the last time we were sick...Jack Henry had a virus!), we celebrated Valentine's Day, quietly! And here we are in March, getting ready for spring and spring break with Hannah, Sarah and Aunt Mary!!!! We're all goin' to Hunt!!!
Here are some pictures from the past few months!!!

Santa brought us our own rock band! This was the morning after Christmas...I came out of the bedroom to this...they even went and got a bar stool!!!
After Christmas we headed to Hunt...this is the chimenea at Hunt...is the fire too big!??!! The kids LOVED it!!!


Jack found some of Gigi's old sunglasses and modeled them for us!!! He looks gorgeous!!!!


Claire LOVED the fire and roasting marshmallows!!!
