Weekend Pics

This was a nice weekend where for once we were not on the go constantly! Here's few pics of the kids!

This was actually Thursday night. My babies reading together, how sweet!

The Big News: Jay is now the Mets Catcher!
He did an awesome job! Didn't let any balls get past him!
He was so happy since his Daddy & Abicia both were catchers!

Sunday we were blessed enough to not have any bad weather. We had about an hour of rain, the sun came out and we had a beautiful afternoon.
Delaune and the boys came over for dinner, then the begging began. So after a little while, we let them outside. This pic doesn't do it justice! When they came in all three of them had to be stripped and put in the shower. After showers, I had to wash their clothes 3 times! There was so much trash/dirt/yuck attached! But to see their faces was priceless!

Happy Anniversary!!!!!!!!!

Today Dave & I celebrate our Anniversary!

It's hard for me believe that we have been married for 9 yrs!
I am so blessed to be married to my best friend!


Thank you Dave for the being the best husband I woman could ever ask for!
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!

Victoria Rowell

Monday , March 30, 2009 will be a day I will NEVER forget!

I got to meet/spend the day with Victoria Rowell. She is an actress/advocate/author/dancer etc. She is best known for her role as Dru on the Soap Young & The Restless. She visited UA campus as part of the Paul R Jones Lecture Series, which my dept helps sponsor.

Victoria is also a good friend with one of my friends/co-workers, Dr. Amalia Amaki! (Victoria just had to have her pic taken in front of the Dogwood tree!)

After her presentation, Brittni & I helped her & her fiance with her book signing. We had such a great time! Victoria is so down to earth.

Thanks Amalia, for giving me the opportunity to spend the day w/ "the" Victoria Rowell & her "Chauffeur"! One of the most amazing days ever!

Baseball

Jay started Baseball this year! And loves it! He is on the Mets team! He wasn't very happy about having to wear Orange & Blue (sorry ER) but loves that he's not on the Yankee's team! I was so happy that he's not the smallest one on the team. His coach is great! Coach Chris has the patience of a saint!

Jay's #6!

Sorry it's been so long!

Ok, yes I know it's been a long time, but there's been a lot going on.

Here's a brief synopsis since the last post:




Anna is crawling and getting into EVERYTHING!!!!! Plus she's trying to stand up and walk. She bear crawls more than anything.

My Spring Break was March 16-20. We went to visit Tetta & Way-Wayne in Houston. Needless to say, it would take me a week to get everything posted from that trip. We had a great time! We stayed busy but had a great time. But here's a few pics of what we did:

We of course ate at Central Texas BBQ. By far the best BBQ ever!


We were lucky enough that Amethyst & Jojo aka Fatboy were on Spring Break too! They went with us to all of the attractions! They are such a hoot! We loved having Ammie & Jojo with us!
The first day we went to the Natural History/Science Museum. Jay loved all the REAL dinosaur bones.




That night Jay, Retta, & I went to the Rodeo Houston. It was Jay's first rodeo. And we also got to see DARIUS RUCKER! The best part of the trip to me! He was great! Even sung a few Hootie songs.



The next day we went to the zoo.
On Wednesday we went to the Johnson Space Center. We actually got to watch the astronauts train underwater. Unfortunately, my camera went dead right as we got there.


We went to the Children's Museum on Friday.
Anna even got to enjoy everything here.
On our way home, we stopped in the swamp for a picnic.
Well it was the Atchafalaya. It's actually America's Largest Riverswamp. We had a wonderful picnic. Jay & Dave played football & I got tackled.

We also made a very long pit stop on the way home. Long story but in the end, Anna got to put her feet in the sand & the gulf for the 1st time! & She LOVED IT!!!
