Yay for our new video camera!

New Pics of Anna

April Graves took these pics of Anna the other day in our backyard. We weren't planning on doing it and Anna was fussy so I didn't expect anything to come of it, but she surprised us!

We're being published!!!

Ok, big announcement...

Ok, not that big. But our crazy directory photo from a few years ago is going to be in the Awkward Family Photos book!!!! They didn't post it on the web site (which is hilarious, by the way: http://awkwardfamilyphotos.com )because they wanted to save a few for the book.

So, look for us probably some time next year! More info when it comes out.

Christi's birthday present

It's still several days away (Aug. 12) but I got Christi a new toy for her birthday. It's amazingly convenient with kids. It's a small, portable video camera. No tapes. Straight up digital.


So, here's some of the first video taken with it.

Vacation 09 part 2- The Whole Family

Sorry this took so long!

We got back to our kids as soon as possible on Wednesday. That night, we took Andrew to his very first Rangers game!


This is in the car in the parking lot. Andrew loves this pose. It kind of hurts.


This is us boys in with the new 'Boys stadium in the background. It's so massive.
And it only costs $1.5 billion.


The ballpark from our seats.


Mommy and Drew

On Thursday, we started off by going to the Dallas World Aquarium in downtown Dallas. Andrew loves that kind of thing.


Andrew in the front ready with a toy shark. He likes to play along.


Daddy and son and shark in Andrew's favorite part...a shark tunnel! We could have stayed there all day.


I can't emphasize enough how dialed in he was.


Anna patiently waiting.

After the aquarium, we headed over to Grapevine Mills to the Choo Choo Station which is a Thomas the Tank Engine themed store.


It had a train to ride!


Mommy was shopping. Andrew was playing. So, some daddy/daughter hanging out!
