Lately

Lately, we have been busy! With school back in the swing of things we still seem to pack in the fun. Above is a photo of Lucy at the balloon festival we went to. She was mostly impressed by seeing miss Texas (or as Lucy called her, a princess) and the terrifying but friendly, Smokey Bear.

We finally got the new back splash we'd been dreaming of! (thank you teacher bonus!)
before and after!
In August we celebrated Melanie and Trey's upcoming nuptials with a fabulous Bridal Shower.


Lucy wasn't very thrilled about trying on flower girl dresses. We did not buy this one... clearly she hated it!
It's not 100 degrees anymore!!! So Saturday mornings are for outdoor snuggling!

And weekends are designated for cheering on our beloved Baylor Bears! We got season tickets this year so we've been driving down to Waco on weekends to cheer on our team. The best news about it: Lucy LOVES football!! She spends the entire game clapping and cheering "Go Bears". Anytime Sam has football on tv, she runs in and says Go Bears!
Good thing Lucy is so smart... she's going to need that stellar GPA if she plans to go to Baylor. Scholarships don't come easy kid- and mom and dad will be paying Baylor for a while :)
