What we've been up to...

Memorial Day at the Lake with friends...
please note that this is Daddy's beverage, which at this time was empty!

Last weekend in College Station for A&M Regionals and cracking up with Babs...

Singing the Aggie Fight Song one last time... that big white thing in the left corner is someone's arm.

Sea World with the cousins... Everyone say "Shamu!"

Roasting Marshmellows for S'mores at Hill Country Hyatt...

Eating the final product...

Playing in the backyard on the new "Giant Playground" as Hunter refers to it...

Getting a new A/C installed (a second unit) to cool the addition we added a year ago. The original unit wasn't cutting it with these hot summer days! This is the hole where one of the guys accidently stepped through the ceiling. Fabulous! I always hated that light fixture anyway, so there you go!

Long time no blog....

It's been over a month~ and I still don't have my most recent pics on the computer. I need to get with it.

Funny story.... Hunter is obsessed with cars and trucks. Not news to anyone who has been around him lately. He talks constantly about which trucks have hitches and that they can pull a trailer. He also talks about gas tanks and points them out on every car we pass. Along with that obsession, he will remember little details about people's cars. He noticed that the side view mirror on Blake's (my brother) truck was broken. When we asked Blake what had happened, he said that my dad, "Babs" to Hunter, had hit it backing out of the carport on the column. A couple of days later, here was our conversation
Hunter: "The mirror on Blake's car is broken."
Me: "I know. Who broke it?"
Hunter: "Babs... that little stinker!"

Just goes to show that he listening when we talk to him!

Another Funny Story....
As we were passing by our church the other day, Hunter announced, "There's my church!" I replied, "You're right buddy. Who do we learn about at church?" Hunter's response as serious as could be... "The ladies."

A little background... Hunter refers to the women who are his Sunday School teachers as "The ladies." When we were having severe separation anxiety with the entire church drop off thing, he would say, "No my want to go see the ladies." Sometimes he would even bring them up at home and say, "No ladies coming to my house." Now, he is excited about church and wants to see the ladies. As a matter of fact, he taught the ladies at church about gas tanks and hitches on all of the play cars in the classroom 2 weeks ago. Hilarious! Anyway, he associates church with "The Ladies!" For now at least!
