Walker's 6th Birthday Party

Go big or go home. That should have been the theme of this party. We had Walker's birthday party at AT&T Stadium...home to the Dallas Cowboys. 



Gregorio - Walker's friend from school

Notice Walker... David has his hand protectively on Walker's shoulder. He's such a kind-hearted boy!

Lainey may or may not choose to be a cheerleader someday. Ha!

Kaitlyn, Camryn, Camryn, and Lainey :)

And we witnessed a proposal.



Happy Birthday, Walker!


Walker with "G"...the party/tour guide! He was awesome and had complete control the whole time. :)

A Thursday Night

On Thursday night, over Spring Break...dance friend fun.

the boys

Doing the "whip and nae-nae" from the song "Watch Me."

And they had some "stanky legs" (also from the song "Watch Me.")


And the girls performed last year's Petite competition piece...and they remembered it!

"Ay Caramba!"

Weekend at the Lease

What a fun weekend! :)



Lainey wanted me to take a picture of her looking up at the sky. :)




Our view. Pretty remote. And it's awesome.

Walking the puppy dogs around the ponds. My parents, as well as Uncle Matt and Aunt Whitney, were there too! :)

While Walker and Sofi were meandering along, I started to notice things jump into the water.  

They were frogs! HUGE, gigantic frogs! I became a little obsessed.

Look at that!


I got a lot of splashes. ;) Not fast enough with the camera!

I think this is a bullfrog.

All those green things near the water are frogs!

Giant legs!

We absolutely found some bones to add to our bone garden in the backyard. 


Hehe...some frog legs.

And this is a dead one. But seriously. This is what my legs would look like if I jumped and squatted all day long. All. Day. Long. :) 

Ok, last one. Promise.

The "home" on the lease! It's a double-wide. :) But it's pretty much in the middle of nowhere.

Aunt Whitney laid out some wildflower seeds and the boys laid out some corn soaked in Big Red to attract the wild pigs. :)

Walker in the deer blind...

Lainey in the deer blind...

Gotta love riding in the back of a truck. And eating dust. Literally.

Lainey got a driving lesson. :)


Hi, house!

Walker got a lesson, too.


Pretty perfect!

And...this is "Queen of the Lease" aka Lainey. :)

Walker as a Teacher...

Walker went with me to my classroom last weekend and decided to write a few things on the board for the kids to learn. :) 

He wanted us to teach them about vowels (a, e, i, o, and u)...

and he wrote my name, and the word "sun", and his name. Too bad all of this goes way over a three-year-old's head. :) 

Just a Reagan Dog. :) She still takes advantage of every available opportunity to bark, run out of the house, and get under one's foot. We have two neighborhood friends who are afraid of dogs, but thanks to Reagan, they are slowly getting over that fear. She's changing lives, friends. Changing lives. Who knew she was capable of such a thing at age 77 (in dog years)! :)

Lainey and Walker's school was selected to participate in "Read Across America" on March 2nd (which is Dr. Seuss' birthday AND Texas Independence Day). Lainey and Morgan dressed up as Thing One and Thing Two. :) (Don't think they didn't argue about who got to be Thing One. I think they made a compromise...for Halloween, if they choose to dress up as these characters, Morgan will get to be Thing One!)
