Spring Break...already over...


Hard to believe Spring Break 2010 went by so fast...The weather has been great we have all really enjoyed the sunshine!  Wednesday, Liz and I took the kids to Ft.Worth Children's Museum.  After lunch at Gloria's we decided to show the kids what the WaterGardens were.  They all really liked climbing all the big rock steps and seeing all the water fountains.  Great place for pics, I am going to have to remember that for future photo ops!

Sunday in Cordell


Kambree Marie Kastner


This weekend we took a trip to Cordell, to see the newest Kastner.  Kambree Marie Kastner was born a week ago to Mariah and Taylor.   Bailey and Audrey were instantly in love!  They couldn't keep their hands off the little girl.  Unfortunately my camera battery died and I only got to take a few pics.  We had a great visit with everyone.  Plenty of Hand and Foot Canasta and lots of baby holding.  Stacy is getting close, so we are already planning another trip in May to see both these babies in action.

Friday Night

Sally to rescue!  Friday night Sal and the kids came over to help me make some letters for my new nieces. "K" for Kambree and "Z" for Zoe.  We tried to make them to match the babie's nursery colors. 
It was a pretty fun project, picking out the paper, painting, glueing, sanding and adding the finishing touches!
The result was great and we were able to deliver them in person to Stacy and Mariah on Saturday when we
got to Cordell.

An Owl named Pinky

Audrey saw a picture of an owl decoration in a catalog a few weeks ago.  She has asked everyday if I would make her an owl like the one she saw.  This last Tuesday we finally 'made' time to make her little pillow.  Audrey helped pick out the colors and she even stuffed the little gal.  After the project was complete Audrey picked out a name, "Pinky Owl"  The little gal has been a hoot, riding in the car back an for to school all week.  She served as a pillow for Bailey coming home from Rick's late soccer game last Wednesday night.  Audrey hasn't spent a night without her, I love age 5.  Audrey appreciates everything I make no matter how good it actually turns out!

Soccer Day is Finally Here!

Bailey finally had her first soccer game last Saturday.  After several rainouts, countless practices and a little bit of nervous jitters.  It finally happened.  Bailey played almost the whole game and was really starting to get the hang of the game action.  Lucky for her she has thick skin, she had her two coaches on the side lines shouting directions, in addition to both her dads giving her direction!  The team won by a landslide, I lost count after 6 goals, but the other team never scored any.  It was a great game!

Date Night

Rick and I went out on a date with Liz and Nathan.  It was a fun night.  Liz had recieved an invite to a resteraunt opening near her work.  The great thing was dinner was complimentary!  The menu was pretty diverse but the waiter insited that we all try something different.  I have to say the thing that stood out the most in my mind was the appetizer, pulled pork sliders.  Yummy!  Rick and I felt like mini celebrities walking in, because the night was by invitation only the hostesses stood outside turning potential guests without an invite away.  The gladly ushered us in through the front door and polietely sat us at our table.  Talk about VIP service!

More Valentine's Fun

Last week we took a trip to OK to visit with the family. We all had a lot of fun spending time together. Saturday was Mariah's babyshower, it is hard to believe her little girl will be here in less than a month! Saturday night Bailey stayed up with Karon, Chris and Mariah until almost 3am playing cards. The Kastner special, "Hand and Foot Canasta" Sunday all the ladies spent a lot of time in Mimi's craft room. Bailey made some really cute hairclips for her friends for Valentine's Day. Mimi spiced it up a bit by helping her with the Cricut and make cute cards to attach the clips to. We didn't leave Cordell until after 5PM, but it was well worth the stay!
