I have been ignoring my poor blog and so I will post something. I just emptied my micro sd card in my phone and found a bunch of fun pics I forgot about. I will post them for fun here.
This is Grace during her latest EEG. It is so sad to see her hooked up like a piece of electronic equipment. She has had many EEGs over the years, and never once could we get her to fall asleep until this last one. She slept almost the whole time and she wasn't even required to be sleep deprived for this one!
Here are McKay and Alexa on Easter this year. They are getting so big. I guess that means I am getting old...
This is McKay and Alexa at the movies when we went to see Wall-e. I don't know, I think Wall-e is looking like he is not too into this photo shoot....
This is a pic of the snow day we had in March of 2008. Yes, that is right folks, I said March. In Texas. We had a few inches even! The kids had a blast. This was outside the apartment we stayed in while we were building our house.
Here is Alexa going to a birthday party in a limo the mom rented. They met outside the school and went to see Igor at the movies. They were so excited about the limo, they couldn't concentrate on the movie and asked to leave early so they could drive around in the limo some more! Divas. :-)
Grace does horse therapy and the therapy place had a fun Christmas party this past year. They had Santa ride in on a donkey instead of a reindeer. This is Texas you know, and the reindeer don't quite dig the climate here. The donkey's name is Chuy and if you ask me, he is giving Rudolph a run for his money....
We went to the wax museum and it was so dark (and my lame phone has no flash) that this is the only pic that really turned out. Alexa and Tiger had a good time on the putting green...
Both girls got into the school district's art show this year and here is Alexa's submission. Only about 30 kids from the entire school of about 600 get into the district show!
Here is McKay's mosaic of Marilyn Monroe. I saw it in the hall at school and said to myself that it was the best one in the grade not even knowing it was my own daughter's!
The principal and one of the fifth grade teachers at the girls' school promised that if all the 5th graders in the school passed the TAKS test, they would spend 24 hours on the school roof. Well they did it and even pulled in impressive enough scores that the school was rated exemplary again this year! We went to visit the teachers and principal up on the roof that evening- a lot teachers spent at least some time up there, while the principal and the one original teacher spent the whole time. I think they were partying all night......They even got on the news!
Cleaning all of these pics was fun. I forgot how many things I got on there.
We are off to Finland next week...I will have to post about that amazing experience when we get back!
