So how do you follow up a great morning at the zoo? How about hanging out with your two boys watching the Houston Texans?!

Need I say more?

Monday Funday!

Woo-Hoo, it's Monday!

What a great weekend we had. First of all, the weather has been absolutely amazing the last couple of weekends, and it looks like we're in for another when Saturday and Sunday come around. Saturday morning was spent with family at Cracker Barrell. We celebrated our SIL's 31st birthday. (Can you believe we hang out with people that old?) Just kidding, Kelli. You know we love you! The rest of the day was spent lounging around the house and watching a little football. CRG really likes to watch football. He likes to yell "touchdown" and chant "De-fense, De-fense". Saturday evening was spent with good company as a friend from our Bible study went with me to a local high school football game. Katy HS 21 - Taylor HS 10. Once again, perfect weather!

As previously mentioned, CRG received an annual family pass to the zoo. After finding out that the Houston Zoo was holding "Zoo Boo" we couldn't wait to take the boys. The zoo had a few stations to trick-or-treat, a pumpkin patch, and a few other activities for the kids. CRG got some great practice for Halloween. I'll let the pictures do the talking....

"Wheee!!!", said Katy.
Is that a prarie dog? No, it's a lion in a bubble!

Giraffes!
I see it!

How can you not love Clay's Restaurant

A few weeks ago we celebrated Katy's Aunt K's 60th Birthday! Happy Birthday Aunt K...I hope you had a great time!

Here are a few pictures from Clay's. CRG loved seeing all the animals...as long as he didn't get too close!

Monday Funday!

Welcome to Monday Funday! This is our effort to take your case of the "mundays" and turn it into a Fun-day!

What a great weekend we had. Saturday was CRG's 2nd Birthday party. We couldn't have asked for better weather. All the kids had a great time jumping in the moonwalk, playing basketball, eating, and knocking the candy out of the pinata! Thank you to everyone who was able to make it!

Cake, cupcakes, and Oreo cookie balls Katy made.

On Sunday, we took CRG to his first concert, Imagination Movers LIVE from the Idea Warehouse! Although CRG was a bit overwhelmed with all the lights and music he had a great time. He even got the courage to hold hands with his girlfriend, Shelby!

Wow, it's hard to imagine that just two years ago it was just me and Katy. Now, on CRG's 2nd birthday we also have a 2 1/2 month old. I love my family.

Happy Birthday CRG. We love you!
