Makeover!

Lots of things are new today! Freezing weather (that is new in TX!!); new carpet being put in later; and a new blog design! hee hee!

My wonderful and talented friend from Lubbock told me about this website http://www.scrapblog.com/ where you can go and scrap online! Then you can make your file into a .jpg file and save it on your computer to then upload as your header! You can also just scrap and print and then you have a crafty picture to frame! Check it out!!

Here I am with my wonderfully talented Lubbock friend! I was able to enjoy her company for lunch last week while I was in Lubbock going to the Doc. We had a yummy lunch at Abuelo's Mexican Restaurant and then did a little shopping! Thanks Laurie for a wonderful afternoon and for the scrap blog tip!! Love ya! Y

Dan's Day of Hunting

A couple of weeks ago, Dan's good friend asked him to go duck and wild pig hunting. The boys were sad they couldn't go, but maybe in a couple of years.

This is the ranch house of the guy hosting the hunt. You can tell he is really into hunting!

After 3 hours of waiting for a pig to walk by (alone) to Dan's surprise, one finally did (about 5 minutes before the guys came to pick him up) and Dan shot it. It was big and ugly!
The best part of the day was the duck hunt. In about 6 months, two of these beauties will be hanging in our home office. I can't wait.

Basket Ball

This year the boys are playing UpWard Basket Ball. They've both played in the past, but this is the first year that the score is kept and it feels like a real game.

They are on different teams, but both teams are very good! Two games into the season, they have both won a game and tied a game. Today Drew's team came back from being behind and tied it up! It was very exciting.

Zach's coach is one of the best (so another mom said) and you can tell, because they play like a team! Wow! Very impressive! Today Zach had to guard a kid on the other team that he went to school with! It was great! Friendly competition!

In case you don't know UpWard Basketball; they have to learn a verse from the Bible each week and have a devotion during practice and half time and we play at local churches.

I'll post pictures soon!!!
