Dr Pepper, TX

So, I grew up in Dublin, Texas. It is the home of the REAL Dr Pepper-made with real sugar.
It is a very big deal around there, and we still lived there when the museum turned 100b years old. This year it turned 120, so I thought it would be fun to take my daughter and husband to see the stuff I was around as I grew up.
We stayed the entire weekend with my aunt and uncle that live in Stephenville. My uncle has a large farm, with COWS-and my child is currently obssesed with cows, and probably because we live in the city and do not see farm animals. She thought his farm was TOO COOL. She talked to the cows, and they moo'ed back to her, and she told them that she loved them.
We also made time to play at the Stephenville park!!

Photo Session!!

After several months of delay and illness, we FINALLY had our family photos done in April!
We had an awesome photographer, and were very happy with the outcome!
I think it captures the love we all have! I cant believe this angel of mine is nearly 3 :(
BUT, i'm SO thrilled to have these cute pics to remember that she once was small.
I have LOTS to post, but my computer is having issues, so these may be spread out in sessions.

Fun times

Our princess is oh so SMITTEN with her friend Cade. Not only are they church buddies, but he is also our neighbor!

EVERY time we leave the house, she points to his house and asks if she can go see him.

She calls him "my Cade". Its pretty darn funny.

For the past several weeks, while their daddies attend a men's bible study, we let the kids play together at his house or ours. He is so cute, and does whatever she says....and he is 7 months older!

Here's a few pictures of their fun times together!

Trike riding!

Fun in the wagon!

Girls Trip!!

So, several of us from WRBC decided it was time for a girls weekend trip! The guys go away on two camping trips each year, so it was our turn to leave. We went to CANTON on April 1 and 2. We had an ABSOLUTE BLAST! We stayed at this VERY "rustic" lodge/cabin. We laughed ALOT about how it looked and smelled, but it worked out perfect and held all 6 of us very comfortably! We went on Friday afternoon and shopped a bit, and ate a yummy Mexican dinner. Saturday morning we ate in downtown and then made our way to the Grounds, and shopped ALL DAY! 3 of the girls were too tired and had to leave about 3:00, but us other 3 lasted several more hours. We finally got home Saturday night, and husbands and kiddos were VERY happy to see their mommies! I really LOVE all these ladies! We had so much fun, just having ladies talk, and discussing ALL the great things God has done in our lives! Andrea and Tiffany Car #1 Clarire, Andrea, me
