Fun at Gigi's in the beautiful sunny day

We had an unseasonably warm day and the kids got to take full advantage of it playing outside at Gigi's after school.











I see you Mason.

Mason's big news...

Mason called me at work on Tuesday with BIG NEWS!!! He began riding his bike with NO TRAINING WHEELS and he was so excited about it. He got this bike for Christmas from Hidy and Gigi and chose to keep the bike at their house. So, it was there, Tuesday after school, that Mason tried and suceeded on his first attempt.




















Gigi took his picture when he called me to tell me his accomplishment...
Maya and Zoe are happy for him too!

M&M meeting Baby Kendall

Maya was modeling Brian's boots as we were getting ready to go see Chris, Julie and Baby Kendall.
Chris made yummy cupcakes for dessert and the kids got to help ice and sprinkle their own. And Maya had her "Cute as a Cupcake" shirt on.

Kendall stares intently at me.


Maya and Mason hold and love on Kendall.














Chris and Julie have 4 dogs... it's a busy household.

Uncle Brian holds Kendall.







Kendall smiles at her Mommy.


























Maya hangs out with Chris and a couple of dogs...

It was fun seeing everyone.

Last Basketball game and party

At the start of the game, Mason realized his shirt was on the wrong colored side (they are reversible). So, he promptly took off his shirt to remedy the situation.
His last game of the season was a good one!






There was a lot of celebrating!



















I know Maya is glad the season is over.. she gets bored on the sidelines!










We had a little after party at McD's where Mason got his basketball trophy. A few of the players didn't make it to the party.

Valentine's Day in Austin

We drove south to Austin for Valentine's day. We went to stay with Wendy and her family and Janet and her family came down too. Jill and her family came over for dinner and fun as well.





















Jill brought a delicious and adorable "love birds" cake.

The little girls had their own table and they all had a pair of red lips sunglasses! GLAM




















Lots of fun on the trampoline -- and both my children have costumes on...



















Wendy, Janet, & I








Berkley






























Maya had so much fun with Parker.

They dressed up and Parker put make up on Maya.



































Yummy Valentine cookie cake Janet made...

















Brian, Chris and Derek





















Mason and Luke kept running from the camera... I never did really catch Luke... except in action doing flips on the trampoline!































Parker, Luke, Mason, Maya & Maddox all spent the night on blankets in the floor of one room. They all fell asleep pretty fast after playing really hard and staying up late.







We had a great 24 hour stay! We always have a lot of fun and laughs with this group... Thank you for the hospitality Wendy & Chris!
