They sure are a pair and yes, the cat fighting has already begun! They have been playing together so much more lately and it just makes me happy to hear them and the things they say to each other! :o)

Girl time....
These pictures are actually back from November. It seems I have a problem lately with taking pictures with my camera. I tend to use my iPhone to snap pictures mostly b/c it is always with me. Here are some pictures of the girl's in their matching outfits. After seeing these pictures, I'm amazed at how much longer Kate's hair is now! She's got lots of beautiful curls and Haylee's is silky and straight.

Tyler's 6th Birthday Party
Okay, so I am still way behind on posting.....lots busy things and after of a month of sickness and hospital stays in December we had a wonderful Jan. with not one sickness. BUT, on Feb 1st, we started with a bang. Katelynn had the tummy bug which transferred over to Ryan and then to Haylee! SO FAR, Tyler and I have missed it but we will see how the next 2 days or so go!
Anyways, here are some pictures that I didn't want to skip......

We celebrated Tyler's 6th Birthday at a little place in downtown Wylie called Wylie Motor Speedway. They were very reasonable in price and it was right down the street! It was by far Tyler's favorite!!!

Since it was a "race car" place, we went with the Car's theme which is still one of Tyler's favorite things. See his big smile!

About to do some Drag Racing....this was so amazing to see. I think she said those cars go like 60mph on these tracks. This particular race was special. Only for Tyler and parents, grandparents and aunt and uncles. (More for adults but they allow the birthday boy to do it as well!)


Time to open some presents!!

And here is the racing for all the other kiddos. They got to do this part for over 30 min! The kids LOVED it!

So funny to see the cars spin out of control! Even the owner guy has a little announcing booth that he sits in and talks over the microphone like during real races on who is winning. So funny!
Before everyone got there they let Tyler have some practice on the small tracks with the bigger cars. He really had a great birthday and we may be using this place again!!

The Air Show
So Grandpa took Tyler to the Air Show back in October. It was on a Sunday and since Ryan teaches our class we let Tyler spend the night with Grandpa on Saturday and he was with him all day Sunday. Looking at the pictures that Aunt Carrie took, we are sad we didn't get to go. :-(
Tyler had SO much fun. He has talked about it several times and remembers so many different stunts. We will definitely try to make it next time!

Thanks Grandpa, Aunt Carrie, Chentel and Uncle RD for taking Tyler. I am sure he will have fun memories of this day!

The Girl's Birthday Party
Sorry so late on all of the posts! I did the girl's Birthday party at my mom's house at my parents house on labor day weekend. As you can tell it was a Strawberry Shortcake party. It was just a small party and the girl's had tons of fun. Unfortunately my battery died on my camera so I didn't get many pictures of them opening presents, but here are some others!

Yummy snacks!


I had their adorable cake made by a lady at our church. I thought she did a GREAT job!

It was a strawberry cake on the inside....delicious!!

Cute little topper that we saved and put in the girl's room.

More of the table. I bought that Strawberry Shortcake House at a garage sale for $4 when I was pregnant with Haylee 2 years ago. One of their favorite toys!

Happy Birthday dear Haylee and Katelynn

Pretty little 2 year old

Smash cake time!!!!!

Big 1 year old! She did pretty good eating her cake.

Here is a great 1picture of Ryan and his dad taken by my sister. They got lots of fun girly gifts and we had a blast!

Eight years of Marriage
Today marks our 8 year anniversary. We are going through such a rough time right now but I am amazed that Satan isn't attacking our marriage right now with everything going on. Ryan and I truly are growing closer and truly leaning on our Lord to get us through. I am so happy that we have Him as our foundation because I can see how so many marriages crumble when we are not centered around Christ. Not saying that everything is perfect because I have certainly had my days of doubt and tears but, I am able to find peace at the end of the day knowing where my trust is. Your prayers are certainly still needed.
Ryan is still pursuing employment. His long term plan is to start the Fire Academy in Jan and do a summer EMT course. This would allow him to be able to apply/test for almost any city in DFW area giving him so many opportunities. We understand that it is going to be a tough year or so but our goal of getting out of construction and having something that is stable is our focus. He has a heart of helping people and this would allow him to do that.
On to a few wedding pictures in lieu of our Anniversary





One of my favorite verses that I love for Ryan.....
As water reflects a face, so a man's heart reflects the man. Proverbs 27:19
