Fair Week

So this was the week of our West Texas Fair and Rodeo and, of course, I forgot to take my camera the THREE times we were there, so all I have are pics I took with my phone and pics of Kailee that my dear friend Donna took of her showing. I'll post those as soon as I get them. So in the meantime, here are the few I got...

Zoey helping Kailee wash goats! She followed Kailee but DID NOT want to touch the goats!


My kids LOVE the roller coaster!



My dad also took all of us the the rodeo. Kailee, my niece Madi, and my dad are like three peas in a pod. They love the rodeo! Madi, at only 1, was very engrossed and her eyes very rarely left the arena. Tyler and Zoey on the other hand would have rather done without, I think. As for Miss Emma Claire, she was snuggled with her Popa and Moma for most of it.

I hope everyone is having an AWESOME weekend! Bye!

Six Flags Trip

As a end of summer trip, I decided to take my kids to Six Flags to see the Raven concert. My very good friend, Donna, her husband, David, and their daughter, Kendalyn (who happens to be Kailee's best friend) went with us. We all had a blast! I think the best part of the trip was getting to introduce my friends to my grandparents!
Getting on Tony Hawk's Big Spin

After the car came to a stop, Ty says,"Mommy, I wish I hadn't said I wanted to ride this ride!"


Raven Concert

We only stayed for the first couple of songs. It was mostly pre-recorded and when we could hear her, she was screaming for everyone to "Make sum noise!" After the 10th time of hearing that, the kids decided to go ride more rides. Thank goodness!

At the top of the Observation Tower. I stay close to the inside. I'm a chicken!


End of the day...FINALLY!

First day of school and a new baby, too!

Today was the first day of school and Ty's first day of Pre-K. He handled better than I did. I tried not to show him, but I cried a lot after we left. This is my last baby I had at home! My wondeful hubby took me to breakfast to try to cheer me up!. How sweet!



This his teacher Shannon Russell. I'm blessed to have friends that are my children's teachers!


Lane and Page also had their third baby girl today! Gigi (my cousin) kept Page's blog updated. Check it out at http://theboydgang.blogspot.com/ !


Impatiently waiting to see the baby!
Emma Claire Boyd was born at 2:27 pm. She weighed 7lbs. 15oz. I was told she is 21in long but I saw 20 1/2in on Gigi's blog. Didn't look at the hospital so I'll ask later. She has more hair than the girls did and it is redder, too. She is definitely BIG!


Inspecting Emma Claire!
