It Snowed

Anyone that has ever lived in Texas will totally understand why I'm excited about these pictures. We heard it sleeting outside and then it went quiet so we opened the front door and saw the most beautiful big snow flakes. That is all it took 2 minutes later the kids were decked out and outside having snow ball fights with the little snow they had off of cars, grill and backyard table.

the grill self explanatory
The girls freezing

Tate he was soooo excited..it doesn't take alot obviously

Thansgiving

Well another Thanksgiving bites the dust. I can't believe that it is already this time of year. we went to my mom's as usual. We had 4 turkey's and all the sides. The weather was beautiful so the kid's ran around outside which was great cause they weren't in the house.

This says it all

Taylor's Modeling Debut

Taylor's orthodontist asked her if she would like to be a model in her new ads that will be coming out. What kid would say no right? It was in an old building off 287 that was pretty cool. Looking at this place driving up you would be scared but it was awesome. I Took Taylor to get he hair trimmed and done before the shoot and it was all good but the final product was not. Taylor was horrified about her bangs and in her defense I agree. They were short but not bad..anyway she went to the shoot they fixed the hair and these are the pics I got..There were alot more but I didn't want to be that mom so I put up the one's I got. And just so everyone knows Taylor was the youngest person there. They had one other girl that was not a high school student she was a little older than Taylor ..Yes I'm proud but I hope she knows this was a compliment being chosen out of the thousand kids Dr. Tardy has coming through there.

she was explaining how she wanted her to pose
This is hair and make-up fixing her

Girl's weekend in New York

I had the best time this weekend..Christine and I flew into New York Friday morning and met up with our friend Joy that was coming in from Minnesota..We arrived at 11:00 and were on Canal street by 1:00...we were not going to waste any time. My brother Jeremy lives there so we hung out with him and his wife Marta and they showed us all the cool places to go...Sat night Jeremy, me and Joy went to a comedy club(Christine was hung over in the room where she stayed all day). One of Jeremy's friends was going to be performing that evening..we got there and I went outside to answer my phone and I come back in and I see Ben Bailey from cash cab sitting at the table next to us..I turned into an instant stalker (I watch his show everyday if that tells you anything)..well long story short since Jeremy is the man that knows everyone the other comedians were sitting at our table so I got to have a nice conversation with my peep Ben, hehe....All in all I had a great time

I took this close up so you could see how close I was sitting to him
Here's me, him and my friend Joy
