3000 Leagues Under the Sea
During our trip to Houston, we took the boys to Galveston to Sea wolf Park. My dad (Bud) served in the Navy on Submarines so it was fun for him to be able to take the boys on a tour of a real sub.
Next time I complain about how small my kitchen is, I will just look at this picture and be grateful. The poor cooks on this boat had to prepare food for about 100 men.

Houston we have take off!
We were able to visit and tour the Astronaut Training Facility. It was interesting to see all that they go through to prepare for Space.

Destination Imagination!
This is the video from the play that our boys did for Destination Imagination. It might not look like much but you have to realize these kids are in kindergarten (except Cade who is in first grade). The kids were assigned to take a historical event and change it, "What if it never happened...." They were the ones who came up with the idea, wrote the words, decided on costumes, and even built the backdrop and scenery. They worked on this since Oct. and last week were able to go to the tournament. It was an amazing program to be a part of. The kids were so excited and proud of themseleves and even though it took so much time, we will be doing this again next year.

Snowbird
Some retirees like to go from cold states to warmer ones. We have one child who I think will grow up to be one of those. Davis played outside for about five minutes and decided he did not like it. He enjoyed the snow in the best way possible, he came inside and drank hot coco with me as we watched the others play in the snow. He decided he liked to see the snow but not be in it!



Snow in Texas
The great thing about living in Texas is that we have very mild winters. We do occassionaly get snow. The snow stays long enough for the kids to play and then melts. Jeremy loves this because there is no need to shovel! This snow was from two days ago. The schools close or start late, and Jeremy can go into work whenever he wants to so he can spend time with the boys in the snow. At the end of the day, all the snow had melted. Cade really enjoyed it. He stayed out and played long after his brothers gave up. Here are a few of the snow pictures.
