Here are some photos of the family while we were in Alabama for Cousin Karen's Wedding. Ian just adores his cousins Carter (4) and Logan (1)! Fun activities included playing in the sprinkler, gardening with Grandma and picking blueberries. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between Ian & Logan in these pictures - Ian has more hair. : ) If you're interested in seeing photos of the King-Croxell wedding, just send us an e-mail!

Fort Worth Stockyards

We recently took an afternoon to visit the Fort Worth Stockyards. We had a wonderful time exploring the streets and the local shops. We had a fabulous steak lunch and enjoyed watching the cattle drive down Exchange Parkway . There are lots of museums and restaurants that we would like to visit on our next trip. Ian loved the cows and even got his own cowboy hat.

Memorial Day

We finally got a grill! Ian tried to help Jeremy put it together. We had a picnic on Memorial Day and we grilled tons of meat - hotdogs, hamburgers, ribs, sausages. Jeremy is a natural at the grill - everything was perfect. Ian's favorite was the ribs.

Christy rode back with us from Pensacola to interview for a job here in Dallas. We are so excited that she was offered the job and accepted! It will be so much fun to have her here! While she was here, we took a trip to the zoo.

Christy's Graduation

We traveled to Florida the first week of May for my youngest sister's graduation from Pensacola Christian College. We had an awesome time!

Hard to believe my little sister has graduated from college!


Picnic at Pensacola Beach after graduation. Ian got his first experience at the beach. So much fun!!







My parents booked a hotel in Orange Beach, AL for several nights. Christy just loved being on the beach, near the pool, and having the freedom to do whatever she wanted.

Isn't she cute?!




On our visit for Christy's graduation, we were able to spend time with Jeremy's family near Mobile. We always love hanging out there. And Ian got to see two of his cousins - Carter(4 yrs.) and Logan(10 mos.)



Look - it's Calvin & Hobbes
