More at Cowboy Stadium

Floating silver helmets? Is this Heaven? No, its Arlington!


I liked this wall, it "speaks" for itself!


The entrance into the holy of holies, the Cowboy locker room.


Jeffrey in front of his favorite player's locker (Tony Romo). At a cost of around 9,000 per locker they wouldn't let us touch it, sit in it or even smell it. 



Joel's neck is going to be so sore!


Walking into the cheerleader locker room, no cheerleaders, just lockers.  Joel didn't want to have anything to do with it.  He didn't want to look at the grills (girls)!


Joel isn't asleep, he crammed his cap down so he wouldn't see the girls.

It's March! You just gotta fly a kite!

On this day that we flew kites, the weather wasn't windy, but somehow we were able to fly some kites.  Joel, at first, freaked that it was going to fly away, but when he realized it was going to stay attached to the string, he calmed down.

Jeffrey flying like an old pro
There's a smile

Wal-mart special but totally worth it, didn't tear up even after getting caught in a tree while dad tried to yank it out.


This is as high as it gets for Joel.

Spring Break at the Holy Land

This past week we traveled to Dallas and toured the Cowboy stadium. The boys loved it, Jason loved the world's biggest TV and the cheerleader lockerrooms.


We were able to park right next to the stadium, for FREE! First time and last time ever!

The Boys decked out in their "boys" gear.

Stare in awe at the wonder that is THE BIGGEST HD TV IN THE WORLD! Tour guide said the TV cost 40 million and that the old stadium was built for a cost of 35 million. He also said that the only thing Jerry Jones loves more than the Cowboys is his TV.....smart man.

Where have you been?

September! Really? The last post was in September? Man, I have fallen down on the job. I plan on posting more. They won't be in order (that bugs me) but I guess that's the way I do things....in order they won't be.

Donut Shop=Donut Pumpkin Patch=Pumpkin Corn Maze= WHAT NO CORN???????

We went on Joel's very first field trip on Wednesday. He was so excited. I think he was as excited about riding on the bus as he was about anything else. The day started with being assigned a partner. Joel was assigned to his princess, Summer. They have been the prince and princess since the first week of school. So after the partner assignment, they boarded the bus and headed to Krispy Kremes in Lubbock. The donuts were a hit. After the donuts, we headed to the corn maze north of Lubbock. They ate lunch and got ready for the journey thru the maze. After the maze, (we only did half) we went to the pumpkin patch to pick our pumpkins. They kids were to find a pumpkin and stand by it and raise their hand until the ONE guy ran to each kid to cut their pumpkins free. After everyone had their pumpkin, we boarded the hay ride again and headed back to the main area and to the "cow train". The kids had a blast. After several more picture opportunities and visiting the animal area, they boarded the bus and headed back to Whiteface. Mrs. Gruhlkey said that all of her Pre-K kids slept on the way home. They were exhausted. We had a beautiful day and everyone had a GREAT TIME!!!!!

After we got home, Joel kept running thru the events of the day and was concerned with why we didn't get corn at the corn maze. He said "mom.....we went to the donut place and got a donut, we went to the pumpkin orchard and got a pumpkin and we went to the corn maze and didn't get any corn." He was obsessed with that. We ended up having to go to the grocery store and buy some corn like what we saw at the corn maze.

As you can see, we had a blast.




















JH Football In Full Swing

Well, we have had 2 games now for the JH Antelopes and a victory for both. The boys have definitely suprised everyone. They are looking good and things are going well. We continue to pray for success and no injuries. God has really blessed our little JH team with both so far. Jason is a GREAT coach with priorities in the correct order. He expects his boys to focus on their school work when it is school time and focus on team work when it is team time. Some people are just not built to be a JrHigh coach, but Jason is. He loves this age and loves his job.







The boys love Trevor being around.




GAME #2

1st Day of School 2009-2010

Well, I just realized that it has been quite some time since we posted last. Oh well, mainly we have just been getting ready for school. Jason started football several weeks and has been going nonstop.



So, Joel and Jeffrey started school today. They both were very excited. Joel started off the day when I woke up them up to get ready. His first words were, "Is it finally the day to go to school today?" I told him yes and he hopped out of bed and got dressed. When we got to the school, he said, "Mom, is this the day that you leave me at school?" I said yes it is Joel and he said "This is my happiest day ever." We have 2 LONG weeks before the 1st break. The little ones will be exhausted.
