Heartbroken

A little photo documentation from the Rangers Playoffs.

Game 1 of the ALDS against Tampa Bay... or as Henry called them "Tam Obey".

PawPaw and Henry tried to get excited by waving their rally towels, but unfortunately it was a horrible game.

The only game we brought our kids.

Our crew for most of the other games consisted of PawPaw, PatPat, Kate, and Brent.

Tom had to work the next game, so we didn't attend.

The Rangers pulled it together to win the series and continued onto the ALCS against Detroit.

Game 1

2 rain delays made for a very long game.

PatPat and PawPaw were not able to come, so Mikey and Kristen got to join us. It was so fun to be there with them.

Game 2 (a day game)

Tom had to go to work that night, so we had to the leave after the 9th (I went to relieve the babysitters)... which would have been ok if it had been a normal game... but the game lasted 2 more innings. Incredible game with Nelson Cruz's walk off grand slam.

Watching from home

Didn't bring my camera to Game 6, which seemed like batting practice for the Rangers... so it wasn't the most exciting game, but it was fun to be there when they won the American League Championship.

Onto the World Series versus St.Louis

Game 3- Tom had to work, so I brought my mom :)

with the ALCS trophies from the last 2 years. looking good :)

Tough game for the Rangers.

But Louis memories were made... let's just say that PawPaw had some technical difficulties with a sign he made and fans below us may or may not have been hit in the head with wooden sticks.

Game 4- sat this one out and Tom took his friend, Barker

Game 5

Great game!

Tom and his dad had Bible study that night so they showed up late.

Rode bikes to the Ballpark. We were thankful they got there safely :)

Riding off... just as happy as a lark.

Too bad the next 2 games would break my sweet husband's heart.

I think he's doing better now.

April 6, 2012 - Opening Day versus Chicago White Socks.

Should be interesting bringing 3 kids.

The kitchen floor will do...

... when I can't hold her.

We've got one sick girl on our hands. :(

Halloween 2011

We started our Halloween with a playdate at the McAdams'.

captured a pic of our sweet little girl before we left.

All of our little friends wore their costumes over at Amy and Brinley's, but seeing that Margaret Gray's wasn't finished, we dressed fall-ish.

Here are our hostesses.... they put together some fun activities and yummy food that we all enjoyed and appreciated! Thanks again, Amy and Miss Brin!

Our sweet friends: Ava, Brinley, Baby Georgia, Luke, and Audrey.

Margaret was intrigued by the jack-o-lantern and Henry was upset that she was playing with it.

"OOOOOO", says the ghost cheese stick.

Onto that evening...

Got Margaret's "tutu" finished during naptime.

Fireman Brother and Fire Sister

We went over to the Benton's to have pizza with them and the Woods.

At dinner, Henry told me "firemen drink Dr. Pepper". Nice try.

The trick or treating crew

Tom was able to join us for dinner and the 1st couple of houses, then went to Bible study.

Thank goodness for friends and family to help this preggo momma out.

Blazin' the streets... though she tuckered out towards the end and wanted me to carry her.

Henry tended to go ahead with the big kids while Margaret stayed back with Alice and Olivia. Every now and then they would stick together.... which was helpful for people to understand MG's costume.

At one point in the evening, I found Henry wondering around in someone's foyer.

After trick or treating for about an hour, we headed over to PawPaw and PatPat's church for their trunk or treat.

We ran into PawPaw, who was working the festival.

But luckily, he got off duty and took the kids for an adventure down the big slide.

Unfortunately, Margaret peed all over him (check out his shirt), so I knew it was time for us to go home.

Made sure to brush the kids teeth :) then threw them in bed. Then dove into bed myself... with toes that were as swollen as the hot dog on PawPaw's hat.

Margaret has not let go of her candy bucket. Takes it in the car, holds onto it while eating- must know that when she's sleeping, mom's eating out of it. Smart girl.

Hope everyone had a great Halloween!

Donkeys, Horses, and Spidey, oh my.

Last Saturday, we headed out to Lucas, Texas for Cooper's 3rd birthday party. It was a beautiful day and we all had fun with the animals and our friends, the Delaneys.

Henry and Cooper on a pony cart.

Here is Spidey on the way home. Let's just say that we left home (50 miles away) with the gas light on. We didn't get 2 miles away from leaving the party when the car started puttering. Luckily, Colin wasn't too far away and was able to get us some gas.
