December Birthdays



Matt's birthday is December 5th and he likes to remind us any chance he gets so we made him a video that he could play over and over. Happy Birthday, Matt. We love and appreciate all you do for us!!!



December 3rd is my friend Megan's birthday. Megan and I have been friends since elementary school. Most my childhood memories include Megan (and Kim...see below). We did everything together and I am glad I have her as a friend. Happy Birthday, Megan!


December 4th is Melanie's birthday. Melanie is an amazing mother and has raised the most thoughtful children. I am not kidding. All of her kids are so very respectful to other kids and adults. Have a great day, Melanie!
Happy Birthday, Jackie on Dec 16th. Jackie, have a fabulous day! I am sure you will be celebrating all day!! I don't get to see Jackie very often but it's always great fun when I do. By the way, Jackie has the most amazing singing voice!!
December 30th is Kim's birthday. Aren't these the cutest bunch of girls you have ever seen? Kim makes the perfect mom for 4 girls. Hope it's a special day!

Fall Ball is Over!


This season Madelyn made some new friends off the baseball field. It made going to all the practices/games that much more fun for both of us.

Christopher pitched a great season for the Astros.

Christopher's team (The Astros) came in 3rd place for 9/10AAA.

Garrett played 1st base this season and got many outs in that position.
Garrett's team (The Texas Rangers) won the world series and came in 1st place for the 7/8AAA.

Garrett and Coach Brandon. Garrett has had this coach 3 times now and we are thankful for all the time and effort he spends on these boys.

Until next season...

Happy November Birthdays

King Max, we can't believe you are turning one on November 3rd. How we've grown to love you. You make me crazy many days but I love when you snuggle up to me. You always want to share your love and you have plenty of it to share. We hope we have many more years to celebrate with you.
November 12th is my friend Katie's birthday. Katie is very selfless. She would give you the shirt off her back. She has many talents and excels in all of them. Katie loves to dance, design, model and perform. Happy Birthday, Kate! It was great seeing you this spring.
Karen's birthday is November 14th. Karen and I went to High School together and then were roomates in college. Karen knows how to have a good time. She always comes up with crazy ideas to keep things fun. Karen and her husband are both survivors of cancer and for that they are my heroes. Karen, I hope you have a fabulous birthday! Thanks for all the great memories.
Leigh's birthday is November 21st. Leigh is another roomate from college and a forever friend. She is so good at staying in touch. Leigh has a beautiful family and I am so glad that her parents live around here so that I get to see her often. Eat some cake for me, Leigh!
November 27th is Wendi's Birthday. Wendi is also a friend from High School. I am truly grateful to have had such good friends during my high school years. It has been so much fun to continue our relationship into adulthood. Wendi loves dressing up for Halloween. She always has the best costume ideas. She also loves candy...maybe that is why she likes Halloween so much. Wendi makes you feel loved just by talking to her. Have a happy "black friday" birthday!
