Christmas in Marco Island

Last week we celebrated an early Christmas in Marco Island with Mama T., Daddy Bob, Mark, Justine, Aunt Lynne and we met her new friend Judy who we LOVED.  We spent some time at the beach, a little time at the pool, a couple of nights at the Marriott, played putt putt, watched the boat parade from the Snook Inn and had Christmas dinner together and opened presents.   Although it was a little cool and cloudy, we still enjoyed our time in Florida.

December is here!

December is here and Luke has started playing basketball with his buddies!  And here is just a token cute picture of Kate with Rocky.

L.O.V.E.

Dad and I absolutely pinch ourselves when we see you two loving each other the way you do.  Y'all are best little friends and it is the BEST thing in the world to watch your relationship as brother and sister grow.

Christmas prep!

This year we got really excited about baking cookies with Mom.  We baked 12 dozen cookies and delivered some to the Flacks, some to the Tilsons, and then we took some to the Fire Station.

Happy Birthday LUKE!!!!

Happy birthday to the sweetest, coolest, cutest 7 year old we know!!  We celebrated with presents in the morning, In-n-Out Burger in the Forest Trail Cafeteria, more presents in the afternoon and Luby's for dinner.  Hope this is your best year yet!

Luke's 6th birthday party

To celebrate Luke's 6th birthday, he decided to have a Michael Jackson party at Boulder Park.  He and his buddies played some football and baseball and then learned a dance to Beat It from an awesome dance teacher named Korie who works with a friend of Mom's at Pure Barre.  Happy 6th Birthday Luke!!!  We could not love you more!!

Thanksgiving 2016

This year we stayed home for Thanksgiving and had a great time.  Uncle John and Gigi came to town and we took them to Painting with a Twist where they got really serious about their art.  We had Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday and then on Friday we decorated the house for Christmas and got ready for Luke's birthday party!

Aggie Football game

This weekend we went to College Station which Kate and Luke have deemed the "best place ever".  "Mom, it is so awesome to look around and see Aggies everywhere you go.  I love it here!"-Kate

We drove in Friday night for dinner with JP at Chicken Oil Co. and then headed to the game on Saturday.  We watched the band and football players march in and then played a little football in Spence Park before heading to Kyle for the game. The Aggies played UTSA and we won!  Kate loved the band.  Luke loved the game.  Everybody had a great day.
