Bathing Beauty

I know I am biased but really.....is she so stinkin' cute or what?

Mommy's choice of bathing suit.

New one from Grandma Jenny. After this she looked at the picture and said "I need a new pose. I only have one." Good enough for me!

Little of This, Little of That....

We have been up to a little of this and a little of that...waiting for school to be complete for another year. THIS mom will be happy to have all my kiddos in the same place starting next year!!

End of Year Field Trips

A little bowling fun - Brooke beat Jack in the last frame!

Learning the ropes of kid-pitch baseball...stealing bases included!

Good form!

Finishing up basketball - 7 months and finally done!

Looking forward to a fun Memorial Day Weekend!! Only 2 more weeks for boys - Brooke is done Thursday!

Jack's First Holy Communion

Jack celebrated First Holy Communion on Saturday May 4th. What a beautiful day to celebrate the wonderful young man Jack is becoming in God's eyes!

The weather was great and we had most of our family here to celebrate!

The proud 1st Communicant - he looked like a million in his suit!

Proud Grandparents Goshorn

And Grandparents Sorg

Uncle Jon and Aunt Molly came from Dallas!

Of course the Austin clan was there!

Proud Parents and Siblings

And Jack's favorite part - CAKE!

Thank you to all who remembered Jack on his day and prayed for him. We are so blessed indeed!

Easter 2013

We had a great visit with Aunt Stacy, Uncle Robbie, Cade and Reid for Easter weekend. Basketball, egg decorating, playing outside and lots of fun.

A little too early for Reid to cooperate with pictures...

But then he found out there was candy to be had...all smiles!

After the hunt - goodies galore!

He is Risen - Alleluia!!

Those Were The Days...

A while back we took a road trip to HC to watch the Panthers and Coach Miller play ball. Before we left we snuck into Lynn Gym, as it is going to be renovated into a residence hall soon.

The sounds and the smells were the same. It is just the way you remember, except no fans cheering loudly as the Panthers upset Manchester (or the other way around). This place is home in many ways to Andy and I - where I first tried out for cheerleading when I was a senior in high school and met the "other" Julie; where Andy met some of his dearest friends on the basketball court and in life; where I had my first job on campus, working for the volleyball coach; where I first cheered for #40; where he first saw me in a cheerleading skirt...ahhh, the memories!

Here's to ole' Lynn Gym. May her new residents be as good to her as we were.

One last pose...

One last dunk.

It's Been Too Long....

And I know it. I am sorry. I have been living. And been busy....

Watching games on my "home court" (Yes - Andy's idea).

At our "home away from home" Nothin' But Net for these undefeated boys...

and this Lil Hoopstar too!

Playin in the snow...

and wishing for spring!

We are hangin' in there! And enjoying Spring Break! More to follow...
