Happy Early Birthday Tyler

It's hard to believe Tyler will be 6 years old next weekend. It seems like just yesterday it was Super Bowl Sunday and Dave and I were sitting at home anxiously awaiting the day we would meet Tyler. 6 years later and here we are with the most amazing young man in our lives. We asked Tyler what he wanted to do for his birthday and he said he wanted to take a trip to Austin. So during spring break we will take the kids to Austin for a couple of nights and watch a UT baseball game. Tyler can't wait!!! In the mean time, we did a little celebrating this weekend (since Dave is headed out of town soon). Emma came down with a stomach bug so we stayed at home instead of going bowling, but Tyler didn't seem to mind.

Tyler opening his gifts from Emma.


Emma got Tyler a magic set, a bug, and some tracks for his bug set. He loved them!

Tyler blowing Emma a "thank you" kiss since she's sick (trying not to spread germs).


Emma bringing out our gifts to Tyler.


So far so good.


The look on his face when he realized the baseball bag was filled with more gifts.


Wow a new bat.


Cake time.


Time to make a wish. He told us he wished for a great family with a great dad, sister, and mom. Then he said his wish already came true!!!


LOVE this picture!!!


Cake can be messy . . .

Our Little Cheerleader

As some of you know, Emma started taking a cheer class a few weeks ago. She has been asking us for weeks now if she could be a cheerleader so we thought we'd give it a try. Emma looks forward to class every week and LOVES cheer class. The class consists of cheer and gymnastics and is absolutely adorable to watch. I'll try to get a picture of her in her cheer shorts and t-shirt (that she wears to class) soon. In the mean time here's little clip of Emma practicing at home:

Fan Fest

We went to the Ranger's Fan Fest yesterday. The day was full of batting, throwing, running, Rangers players, and nothing but baseball. We had a great time!!!

SNOW

We got a couple of inches of snow today and had a BLAST playing in it. We even built a snowman and did a little sledding.







Logan's Winter Visit

Well I think we really surprised Logan this year with his Christmas present. His present was a plane ticket to come out to Texas for few days. We had so much fun with him. We took him into Dallas to look at SMU, to the Fort Worth Stock Yards, to TCU, and more. We love having him visit. Come back Logan!!!!!!!

Texas Football

Just before the holidays we went the state championship football game for our local high school. An estimated 50,000 people where there and it was an amazing experience to watch this game in the Cowboy Stadium. Guyer didn't win . . . . but it was sooooo much fun to watch.


Pre-game


The biggest TV EVER!


Almost time.


Tyler loved taking pictures during the game.


Emma loved watching the cheerleaders.


We were able to get pretty close to the field.


This is what 50,000 looks like.


Emma is growing up so quickly these days.

Being silly.
