Hook 'em horns

You know you are becoming a Texans if:
1. You own a burnt orange piece of clothing. Who would normally wear this color?
2. You know the words to the Texas anthem...I never knew there was such a thing
3. You teach your kids to do the "hook em horns" with their fingers. It is almost a natural movement for Aubrey's fingers now.
4. You start to say Y'all
5. Your kids know what a long horn looks like.

Last weekend we went a Longhorn preseason game. We are going to get season tickets this season so if anyone wants to come to a game just let us know!

Herd Ball

Aubrey started soccer last Saturday. All of the kids ran around in a herd kicking each other. It was pretty cute. Aubrey didn't that that it was very fun.

This is how she spent most of the game...having one of us hold her.
After we got her on the field she scowled at us most of the time to let us know that she was not happy about playing soccer. The ball rolled past her a couple of times and she didn't even try to kick it. We bribed her with a treat so hopefully she will like it more next time.

Thank you

Thank you everyone who called us, gave us treats and gifts, and emailed us for our birthday. Aubrey and I had a great birthday. She truly was the best birthday gift I have ever had.

A birthday would not be complete with out dress ups!

Happy Birthday Aubrey

We had Aubrey's birthday party last weekend. She had a pajama princess party...I love that everything has to be princess at this stage. All of the kids wore their PJ's and I made her a barbie princess cake.

Happy Easter

We hope you had a Happy Easter. Here is a picture of our kids right before church.

Camping

For spring break we went camping. It has been 5 years and 2 kids since I have been camping. I have to admit that I was terrified to take my kids camping. Many of you know that my kids are not great sleeper and I was afraid what would happen when we all had to sleep in the same tent. Well, we didn't get 8 hours of sleep, but we had a fabulous time. We went with 3 other families...there was a total of 9 kids. This is us at the end of our camping excursion.

I wish that my kids would clean like this at home!

One of our friends brought a teather ball game. Isaac thought that this we pretty cool.

Happy birthday Isaac

Isaac turned two on Wednesday. Here are a couple of pictures from his party.

Aubrey had the hardest time watching Isaac opening the presents. I think that she probably opened 1/2 of the presents. yes...if you are wondering if that is a big metal wall in the background you are right. Only in Texas would someone do this to their house. Some day when Jeremy is not writing papers or providing slave labor for his professors we are going to take it down.

I asked Isaac what kind of cake he wanted for his birthday and he said a Pizza cake. So, here is my attempt to make a pizza cake.

This is Isaac and Aubrey after cake, Ice Cream and lots of candy...to much sugar for Aubrey.
