Bluebonnet Babies

These were taken in March at a really pretty park in the Woodlands

Mmmmm... tastes good, too...

All Right.... I'M DONE NOW!!!!!!

We really love the football

So we didn't get alot of super happy baby pictures in the 'bonnets.  Bright sun in our eyes is no fun, and EATING the eggs is way more fun than sitting still and smiling at them!

  

Josiah's First Livestock Show

So we took Josiah to the Houston Livestock Show in March.  He was pretty fascinated looking at the animals!  All right, I know, he's too young to know he went to the rodeo, but we had to take him...  and take pictures on a longhorn cow...  and go through all the children's exhibits, even if he slept through half of them...!  But it was a fun time, and here are a few pictures.

Buddies

Josiah loves to be outside.  He has also recently discovered the doggie.  Danny the dog is extremely funny.  And full of fun hair to grab!  Danny, fortunately, is very patient with this.  Danny can't wait until Josiah is big enough to run and roll in the grass with!

Colorado Vacation - Feb. 21-28, 2009

Welcome to Granby, Colorado, just about 20 minutes north of Winter Park.  It is a newly developed ski-resort type town where a client of Jeremy's (Nate's oldest brother) owns a huge, beautiful cabin on the side of the mountain.  The owner rents this 5 bedroom, 5 bath cabin out, but invited us to stay for a week without charge.  He also procured ski lift tickets for us for the week!  What a blessing!  It has been a fantastic, relaxing week.  We have enjoyed the mountains, skiing, and spending time with Jeremy and Jennifer and their boys Michael and Ian.

A relaxing morning -- watching Netflix movies in our jammies!

This is right outside the cabin!  We have seen several fox around here

Josiah and Daddy go sledding!

What a beautiful place to stay!

On Wednesday night we went to a place where you can go tubing.  This is my favorite winter "sport" ever!  What a rush!!!

No, Josiah did not go tubing.  Mommy drew the line there.  But he sure looked cute sitting in the tube!

On Thursday afternoon, Nate and Jeremy tried snowboarding.  Jen and Missy went shopping while the boys played today, so no pictures of Nate "in action".

If they are still able to stand up tomorrow, I will try to get some action shots of Nate.

Here is Jeremy's first snowboarding experience on the bunny slope.  As a side note, Michael and Ian are the two small skiers on the right side of the screen.  They are incredibly good.  Ian is not quite 7, and he did some "black" slopes.  Michael, 9, is a little more cautious, but also is very good, and can do some jumps!
