February 2024

 A few pictures from February...

Two of the three bunnies and one of the two tortoises.  :)

Heather and Jacey and I went to College Station to tour Texas A&M, where Jacey is considering attending.  We had a blast together, and it was so fun to be back!

Eric and I got to spend a weekend at the Cooper Hotel in Dallas, our favorite spot for a little getaway.

Eli and Timothy are always hard at work on their turtle pond.  

On Valentine's Day, we made our traditional crepes!

We've had a couple beautiful winter sunsets this month!

These are terrible pictures, but they'll never stand still for me to take their picture!  :)  I love seeing the boys and their friends in our backyard playing airsoft.

Spring is SPRINGING in Texas, and I love it!

Back to A&M for some reason!  :)

And that concludes February.  LOVE to you!!

January 2024

 Just a handful of pictures from the first month of the year...  my phone is full of pictures of bare trees and blue sky, a scene that always catches my eye in January.  Light on the actual people photos though!  :)  I love the slowness of January.

We had a very light snow one day this month, which was enough to shut down the Dallas area for a day.  Texas can't handle winter weather!  :)  Eli's school service project was canceled, Eric happened to already be off of work, and my office closed for the day.  We so enjoyed this unexpected snow day.

True to Texas weather, we've also had some beautiful warm days.  Eric and Eli both have been hard at work on the ongoing back porch project.

This has become a favorite evening activity of ours- sitting on the porch by a little fire.

At the beginning of the month, the youth had a lock-in at church.  It was hard for this old lady volunteer to stay up all night :) , but it was so worth it.  The kids had a BLAST.  This picture was taken in the church parking lot at 4am!  :)

And that rounds out January.  LOVE to you!!
