Why don't you take a break?

S.P.R.I.N.G. B.R.E.A.K.!!!!

I have really needed a break from work and Spring Break came right at the right time. It was great to have some time with my 1 year olds! They keep me on my toes. Here are a few of our treasured moments!

The ABCs of Our Spring Break

A: armadillo roadkill

B: Brenham's BluebonnetsC: Crackers. Lots and Lots of Crackers!

D:Darcy Visit for highlights and a fabulous new do! I still go home for all my hair appointments.

E: Brody's favorite animal from his 1st visit to the zoo is an ELEPHANT!

F: Friends are treasured people and it is always a treat to reconnect with some of those long-distant kind!

G: Graham Goldfish! Yummy! This one is a new favorite of the boys (mommy & daddy 2)

H: HEB Central Market Organic Food Shopping! The boys eat organic as much as we can. I am always so excited to see how much more of a variety the city has versus home.

I:Ike still has left a footprint. Blue tarps are on roofs everywhere.

J: Jellybeans-a great travel snack

K: Kisses from Dylan and Brody-a nice slobbery wet one is the best.
L: Light Rail ride to Reliant Park.

M: McDonald's! God bless Mc D's as it was a nice place to take rest from a long car trip. The boys chowed down on their breakfast deluxe eating 2 pancakes, a biscuit, hash browns, and 1/2 a sausage!
Monkeys were also a zoo favorite of Dylan! He clapped for the monkeys each time they came by.

N: Ninfas-Not my favorite Mexican in Houston, but yummy still.

O: One Year old photo shoot with Miss Debbie. Check us out! http://blog.pure-photography.com/2009/03/07/dylan-and-brody-are-one/

P: Paisley, Brad. He was playing the night we went to the rodeo. He has really fun guitars and put on a great show.



Q: Quiet time for mommy courtesy of Mimi!

R: Rodeo Time! Michael and I got to sneak away to go to the Houston Livestock and Rodeo! So Fun!


S: lots of Singing in the car-The boys love Praise Baby and Backyardagins.

T: Toys R Us Visit. Even if you are almost 28 it is a place where a kid can be a kid.

U: Uncle Herb's Birthday dinner and cuddle time with my almost 90 yr old MeeMaw! She brought all of our old programs and a few notes we had written her over the years. Former Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz chattin with you right now.

V: lack of volume-My hair always is flat, flat, flat in Houston.

W: Walkabouts in "Australia" (This is a BIG deal-we NEVER get to watch movies...) walking around the zoo, mall, Galleria, and Mimi's lake

X: Boxes and cans-The boys loved to build with coffee cans and boxes at Mimi's house.

Y: Baby Mum Mums A new favorite snack!

Z: Zoo! They are building a very fancy addition for the train so we will have to wait till next time...
