You Know When . . .

You know you are raising a boy when . . .

- You are out to eat and he watches the Mavs game the entire meal with little interaction.

- You open a box of crayons and he immediately pulls out the pink one to throw it away.

- You are watching a girly show then he takes the remote and changes it to Walker Texas Ranger.

Whaaat? Isn't he too young for this behavior? I foresee my future full of ESPN and sports games.

Then, just for fun. A video of some Christmas Cheer. :)

Who Needs Cartoons?

Who needs to watch cartoons when when you have National Geographic!



Still watching . . .

And of course in true NatGeo form, the circle of life was in full effect. These two walrus were slowly drowning in the ocean because their iceberg melted and there was no room on the beach. Eli in true boy form was totally engrossed in the story.

You also don't need cartoons when you have Techno!

He was in a country phase, but we have moved on to glow sticks and strobe lights.

A New Song to Sing

Eli's new favorite song:

He knows all the body parts but I guess not in song form. This also gives all you FBCE people a chance to see why I am NOT in choir -- hee hee.

Guess Who. . .

Guess who is ready for Thanksgiving! My younger cousin, Michael, has been sending our little gnome travelling the world and time. This is his latest adventure -- Plymouth Rock.

Riff Ram Bah Zoo

Riff Ram Bah Zoo. Lickety Lickety Zoo Zoo. Who Wah Wah Who. Give 'em hell TCU! What in the world does that cheer mean? I have no idea!

The old TCU football stadium will be torn down this weekend in order to build a new state-of-the-art stadium with the $250 million donations from Alumni. So, my mom and I decided to get a few pictures of where I spent my Saturdays cheering on the Frogs before it is unrecognizable like the rest of campus!

At Daniel Myer Colosseum. One day little man. . . if you have a full ride.


Let's go Horned Frogs!


Lunch at Dutch's. One of the best hamburger places.


At the stadium!

Oh, memories of long ago. . .

Me and E

No fear. It's like he owned the place.

Bye, bye stadium.

Trick or Treat

Happy Halloween!

Where else would a yard gnome hang out?


He found a stick!


Gathering goodies at Aunt Sheila and Uncle Donnie's house.


Posing with Ashlynn


Hanging with his buddies.


His first piece of candy from Trunkfest.

Waiting in line with cousin Colton the cow.

BRIDEZILLA

So, my friends and I are still huge nerds and decided to have a Bridezilla Party. We brought our wedding albums and videos, gourmet appetizers and drank from fancy glasses. We shared wedding triumphs and catastrophes, cheered as we all still fit in our dresses and danced since half of the girls had destination weddings and never danced in their gowns.

Getting ready for the big night!



The girls minus Jackie who is due in March so no wedding dress for her.

Fun was had by all.

Since we were so glamorous we decided a trip out in public was in order. To Tom Thumb we headed. I think everyone just thought we were headed to a Halloween party. Surprisingly, not many people looked twice. Next year we will have to do it a different month. Oh yes, we will do it again as an annual party.
