Could I be any worse at posting?

Wow. My posting skills rank extremely low this year!

We have had a fast and furious semester...
  • Carter's band got sweepstakes at contest (hooray!)
  • I traveled to Fort Worth for a conference
  • the boys are doing GREAT at Hope Lutheran 3 days a week and having fun at home with me 2 days a week -- we have become library regulars every Thursday
  • Carter broke his leg (a hairline fracture in his fibula) and is now in an orthopedic boot and milking his injury for ALL it is worth :)
  • we are SO proud of the Red Raiders as they are 10-0 this year and have a huge game against Oklahoma this Saturday

Here are a few pictures





Waking up with Daddy on a Saturday morning

Tailgating before the Texas Game (behind them is the College GameDay being broken down)

How cute are they???? They are quickly becoming best friends and don't like being apart much.



Here is our best Halloween picture... trick-or-treating with their friend Kaylin and dressed as James (red... Harrison) and Thomas (blue... Palmer) the Tank Engines
