Paris Texas...........

WOW, what an adventure it was. I guess you could say it hasn't change a bit except for the fact it's in my past. Thank God for that! Like my friend mark says, "there's some sort of black cloud over that town". It is definitely a big part of my past though, and I wouldn't be who I was today if I didn't go through what I did in that town. Thanks Paris for being a stepping stone to where I'm at today. Oh, and thank you Lotus for being there through this blast to my scary past.

The Melting Pot

Cheese and chocolate, so yummy! This was a much needed girl's night. I had tons of fun, and even made it home at a decent hour for the hubby!

Disney On Ice

Very cool! Me and katlyn really had a good time. I hope we can do more stuff like this together and have that PERFECT relationship I dream about. It's a daily struggle with her but I know there's hope............

Our Backyard.....

Is always our favorite place to be during Spring and Summer and even the Fall. Our best memories have been made on this little strip of land.

Good Job Dad

This bench has been sitting in our back yard for FOREVER ugly as can be. Ty completely refinsihed it over a weekend with lots of profanity to add that special touch.......

I am so proud of our new family bench!

So cute!

Ty and I found these chairs this weekend. We were eyeing them the whole time through the Houston's window at diner. I just love mini stuff for the kids. We knew attitude #1 and #2 would fit perfectly in them.

Thank You Sarah......

For the gorgeous roses. They are so pretty in pink. Your rose bushes appear to be very bountiful! I am almost positive there will be some more of these beauties for me!!

Sarah's Little Helpers

Well maybe help isn't the word. They were all entertaining though. Kambel, you pull the weeds not the soil!!

The Capital City 10K

This race was so much fun. I got my big second wind around the 3rd mile and hit the finish line with a little under 10 minute miles. My legs are for sure gonna be sore in the morning. Thanks Katja and Brandy for doing an AWESOME job. Can't wait for my next big race!

My Big Red Chair

I love my new red adirondack chair. I will be picking a couple more up this week. Sshhhh there the solid "plastic" style!

You Little Smarty Pants!

Straight A's once again. Way to go my little man!

Shrimp Boil with Ty's Family

Well, like every family, there has got to be some sort of drama, especially around the holidays. Nevertheless the kids got to spend some time with their aunts and uncles, one of which they had never met. A few pics.......

Happy Hour...........

Well actually a very early happy hour with the girls. Thanks for the fun times and the best Bloody Mary EVER! Oh and Blake..................you were very quite!

My Baby Can Read!

Just kidding...... She's far from reading but she loves to pretend. So big, she seems on her big girl bed with her big girl book. It is all a fake, she is still my Baby Kambel!

Spring is here.................

With all the beautiful colors. I love my girls in yellow for spring. It just looks fabulous with their baby blues and blonde hair. So sweet!

Popcorn Night

Almost every Sunday and sometimes even Saturday Tyler likes to have his special "movie night". I never get too excited about it but it's a small tradition that's important to him. "The kids will always remember movie night", he says. This movie night it was Astro Boy and Act II popcorn with extra butter. Kambel is fooled with her Pirate's Booty for easy chewing and easy clean up (ssshhhh she thinks it's the real thing).
