1st Day has already come... and gone...

They seemed to have such a good day. I just know that this is going to be a GREAT year!

The rest of summer goes by

The Angst family made their way to our house. We may not share the same blood line, but they are family. After all, they have been here 3 times in 3 years. Now THAT'S love!

Waiting for America's Birthday fireworks...

Happy 8th birthday, AJ!

I love these Skype shots!

Her birthday dinner request was shrimp at Longhorn

A weekend with the Glynn girls! I'm sure after the weekend with us, law school and teaching overseas is a cinch! Stephanie and Angela...

"I'm done with this!"

And then the Carrs finally got to come see us... minus Gibs :-(

We went on a roadtrip! Plus we "kidnapped" Brooke for the day and took her with us. Yeeeeaaaah... Not sure if her mom will let her come play at our house again!

Adam had a little trouble getting down...

And I got some great shots of the kids...

We ended the day crossing the border just to say that we did.

June Catch-Up

Now it's June's time for a quick catch up...

Well, this summer Adam and Jenna officially became swimmers. Much earlier than her big sisters. But I guess that is what happens when you're #4 and 5. Sink or swim. I just didn't know they would take it quite literally!

Our friend, Drew, spent the night at our house. It was his first sleep over. You've seen his pictures before... Jenna is sweet on him. The fun thing is his big sister had her very 1st (non family) sleep over at our house, too!

And then, of course, the trip home to Texas...

Mema's slave labor

Some Clifford time

Some Brown time

Some Trevino Time

We had a FABULOUS dinner with Nana and Papa

And some favorite shots of mine...

happy birthday, Mama!

yep, my daddy is 68 years old and tubing...

Last, but certainly not least, here's a bit of irony...
