What a weekend!

I do believe a good time was had by all! We enjoyed spending last weekend in Arlington with my family. We may have been on vacation, but I don't think there was a lot of relaxing going on because we were too busy having fun.

Here's Jami Dawn. Guess the golf game was a little too traumatic.

Here are just a few pictures to give you an idea of what we did during the weekend.


We played a little golf, acted a little goofy, and posed for the cameras a lot!! We also went to the Rangers game (Rangers won!!!!) and it was more time for posin' and having a good time. We all oohed and awwwed over the fireworks after the game.


Thanks Jami and Leslie for planning the majority of our trip. And thanks for cutting the decision making down to a minimum. We had a great time! It is so wonderful to have a family that loves to spend time together and have fun wherever we go, whatever we do.

Hi! I decided that since school is out I don't really have an excuse not to be updating our blog, so what better time to start than now, right? These are some pictures from Cody's awards assembly the last day of school. Just thought I'd share them with you. Jeff and I are so very proud of his accomplishments! Cody is turning into such a wonderful young man, and we pray each day for his continued growth and success in life. I can't believe he'll be in 6th grade next year!! That's junior high here in Cub Country. I don't know if I'm ready for this or not, but, I can always move out into the 5th wheel if it gets too hairy in the house! JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!
Our summer is already shaping up to be a busy one. Every Tuesday Cody and I will be somewhere around the Wichita Falls area because he is playing golf with the TJGA this summer. This will entail a lot of very early hours on Tuesdays, and for those of you who know me, early is just not my thing in the summer. I guess I'll adjust. I'm just thinking about all those activity points I'll be getting for walking 9 holes following him. GOOD THING! Other than that we have a couple of catering jobs and of course Colorado on our calendar. Guess summer will be going fast again this year!
Have a great summer!

Take me out to the ballgame!!!!




Once again it's spend our evenings at the ballpark. Cody is playing for the Pirates this year, and for the first time in probably 15 years, Jeff is sitting with me in the bleachers. What a switch! Of course we've only played one game besides the 2 we played on opening day because last weeks games got rained out. But not too many were complaining about that because we all need the rain so badly!
Opening day was fun! Jami and the boys were here along with Mom and Dad to celebrate another season of "America's Greatest Past Time." Mom and Dad took the little boys to the Rangers game while Jami, Jeff, and I stayed to watch Cody play. FIVE HOURS of little league, sitting in the warm Texas wind can be a little much, but on that particular Saturday I wouldn't have been anywhere else. We had our first REAL game on Monday night, and we lost 17-2, but Cody had a really good game. He played center field, where he had some great throws to give the Athletics 2 outs, and then he pitched a great 4th and 5th inning. We are supposed to play again next Thursday, so if you find yourself with nothing to do...join us!!!!!!!!!

Baby on the way!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Justin and Angela are having a boy! Sydney is excited about becoming a big sis, and Uncle Cody is just excited it's a boy this time. The baby is due sometime around the end of July, so we'll just have to be patient until then. (Jami is here and just taught me how to download my pics, so I thought I'd type something to go along with it. Plus, we wanted to share the good news.)

Their names are [Red Raider and Longhorn.]The reason i picked those names were because, well one looks like a Longhorn the other looks like a Red Raider.Jaden and Jaxon need to come feed them so they can get a feel of what its like [and maybe can have two fish............we hope.]

Steven's Benefit Supper

Well the time is drawing closer for Steven's scholarship fund raiser. We are planning the event to coincide with the Olney boy's baseball game against City View on April 3. The time for this to start is around 4:30. We won't have the girls in town that evening, but this was the only Friday around the time we like to do the benefit, soooooo... We are going to serve chopped BBQ sandwiches, chips, the trimmings and a drink, all for just $5.00!! So mark your calendars and be here if you can. Jami has graciously volunteered to make our fliers and an ad for the Olney "Surprise" paper. We couldn't do all of this without the very wonderful help of our family and friends! If you show up to work that night we'll even let you wear one of our very spiffy red aprons that Jami had made last year. So mark you calendar for Friday, April 3 to be in Olney, at the baseball field under the new pavillion to help serve up a great meal for a wonderful cause!
