Sunny Saturday

What a fun day we had today!

Frankie went to a training for the THRUproject.  It's an organization that pairs up advisers with youth that have aged out of the foster program.  Advisers commit to a year with the program and the youth that is placed with them and keep in contact with the youth for support and accountability.  It is a pretty cool idea and the only organization doing it in the state.

After that we all headed down to get some free fish!  Woot Woot!!  

And just for fun we decided to do some shopping and found a new rug for our laundry room, and candle, and a sign that Taylor thought was awesome!

Nap time for Mose while we drove up to the mall for some more exploring of shops...

We found a candy store... Lolly and Pop

Checked out the new H&M... Moses found something he liked!

and then took some time for a dance break :)

Quick stop at a resale kids shop for some serious discounts, but left because Dad got a little overwhelmed.  He came home and took it out on our very overgrown backyard.  

So like I said, we had a fun day!  And we blogged about it!  Maybe this will be the start of something great... baby steps first.   

Lots going on!  We will keep you posted.   

Sunny Saturday

Sorry no photos for this Sunny Saturday... instead we'll just have to tell you how we enjoyed the day!

Taylor has class on Saturday mornings so I went to Devine to spend some time with the family. Mom, Kathy, and I headed down to the Devine Fall Festival Parade with some family and friends watching the floats, cars, trucks, and bikes pass by. It's a small town so everything is about the same each year but it is still fun to go out and see everyone. Plus, people walk next to the floats handing out candy...Yay, free candy!

After the parade we headed to Pleasonton to visit my grandparents and to have lunch. Then my sister and I went to see a movie.

Taylor had some fun girl time with Mom and Teddi after her midterm!

The day ended with a quick game of basketball between me and Brogan and then a fajita dinner! Yum! Then we all sat down to watch Cars 2!

Not a bad day. :)

Now I have to go wake Taylor up from her spot on the couch.

Hope your Saturday was good, too!

Sunny Saturday - Breakfast and Jell-o!

Today was a lot of fun! 

I had some friends coming into town so we made plans to have breakfast.  I have always wanted to go to the Guenther House for their breakfast so the gang met there at 10!

The Guenther House is a historic house that was built in San Antonio.  

The Guenthers founded Pioneer Flour.

The house is now available for tours and there is a restaurant in the basement!

We had an hour to kill before our table would be ready so we toured the house and shopped a bit.

It was a beautiful day outside so we took advantage of it and ate in the outdoors dining room.

After an hour wait the food was so good!

Glad to be able to see my two best friends Fal and Daisy.  :)

Back at the house Taylor and Brogan were having some fun...

Really cool looking snacks and pretty tasty!

Later on in the evening we headed to my Grandma's 75 birthday party (actually her first birthday party)

Crazy!

It was good to see family too!

Hope you Saturday was sunny and fun!

Sunny Saturday - Dye Wars

This Saturday we got to hang out with Journey Youth in an epic battle of Dye Wars.  It was so much fun! Here are just a few pictures of the day.  (Our friend Adrienne took them, we were not brave enough to bring out our camera).

The war is over, and after water balloons, squirt guns, catapults, cups, and buckets all filled with dye we proudly wear our colors.  :)

Sunny Saturday - Houston

We spent the day enjoying Houston and a few of the attractions near by...

After the farmer's market we went home changed and then went out for lunch.

(Today is 1 year and 11 months)

Back home for a nap, a wardrobe change, and some ice cream then out of a walk around town...

It was a nice day to spend together, hope yours was too.  Don't forget to enter the giveaway!  The winner will be announced today.

Sunny Saturday "Littles Edition" - Moving Boxes

Of course the best part of moving is playing in the boxes! ;)

Sunny Saturday - Birthday

Today is Frankie's 25th Birthday so this Saturday we celebrated with family, games, homemade pizza, and some music!

For presents Frankie asked for people to match his $25 donation to CHF for Food Paks, he set his goal to $250 and we met it that night! 

Thanks everyone for coming out and for helping other families have a chance to gather around a table together to eat well.  Thank you Lord for 25 great years of life filled with blessings and love.  

Sunny Saturday - CHF and Pirates

Sunny Saturday: Houston Goodness

We stayed in Houston this weekend and the weather was so beautiful!  

It was a farmer's market kind of morning... :)

After a morning of shopping we came back home for a break and some lunch.

After lunch we stumbled across a yard sale or two and an estate sale. 

It was such a good day!

Thank you Lord for time to relax, beautiful weather, for all your blessings, and for great fun together!
