Hi Peanut!

Happy Birthday Houston!

We love you!!

Oh Dear

Never good when you find your son sporting your high-heels...

Houston loves making "nests" with his blankets. Odd, but very cute!!

He's never cared for TV of any kind (not that I mind!!), until the day we found him perched like this, by himself, laughing like crazy at "The Simpsons." Great.

For those of you personally keeping in touch with Houston, you know that he just recently has started breaking away from the fluent Chinese he was speaking to give English a try. So cute!

Arrrrr Matey!

Haarrrrppy Halloween!!

Fall Fun!

We've had bunches of fun this Fall! This last weekend my mom came out (this time for fun... not because Sarah got her appendix ripped out of her guts!), and we kept her more than busy!! A day a Thanksgiving Point was just one of our many stops.

Sarah, Mom, and me looking our best.

Houston in his chariot. He loved it!

Does it mean anything when you're the only adults on the slide?

Houston got mad at us when we took him out of his cow ride.

This thing was actually creepy. I'll admit, Sarah and I screamed at one point while lost in its guts...

Rock out!

Derek and Sarah rode the mechanical bull. It was awesome! They both came away with battle wounds...

A Trip to the Zoo!

For Labor Day, Houston and I tagged along with the rest of the Beckstrands on a trip to the zoo. Houston loved the water globe at the beginning and the monkeys the most and had a great time hanging out with the family.

Get Your MAC on!!

I usually post to share pictures of our adventures with Houston. Period. Not today. Today I am posting to inform you all that I'm sitting pretty on cloud 9 today. We got a new computer... and not just any computer... my DREAM computer! Yes, we got a beautiful, sparkling new iMac, and I'm not ashamed to say that I'm already totally in love with it. In fact, the REAL reason I'm even bothering with this post is just to give myself an excuse to use it. :)
