Pumpkin Patch 2008

Ok... so Kim, Veronica, and I had this grandiose idea to take our children to the pumpkin patch on Saturday. Let's just say the kiddos had a blast!! The moms...not so much. :) Our boys are a triple threat when they are together. They have so much fun together... they scream, play sword fight, laugh, and a re just a group of little goobers. It is hard to stay mad at their antics when they are just having fun.. and for God's sake... they are boys!! Poor Rylee was stuck with 3 boys (which together are like 10 boys), and 2 two year olds. You can't even be annoyed with Lana for having melt downs when she looked soooo stinkin cute in her tutu!! After all was said. it was a good time. We got to feed animals, go on a hayride (with a very interesting storyteller I must add... lol), take as many pictures as our kids would allow, and chit chat. All in all it will definitely be a memory. :)

My Brother... I am so proud!!!!

Hey guys. Below is my brother's band's Myspace page. They are doing a show on 10/17 in Deep Ellum if you need a date night or a night out. On their Myspace page is 3 of their songs. They are uncut/raw versions, so they are not great quality recordings. Enough for you to tell if you like their music or not. :) They are a Christian band, but their music is very secular. :) Check it out. The top picture is the real him, and the bottom picture is his self portrait. Now you see where Cole gets it from huh????? :)

The Love of my Life....

Ok.. so Neil and I have been married 11 years (in August) and together for almost 13!! WOW!!! Where has the time gone??? I still feel like that 20 something who fell head over heels for the cute blonde and had a whirlwind romance planning a wedding. Seriously.. I was thinking about this just the other day. I know numerically I am getting old, but in my heart and head I still feel like that 20 something. I still act the same, a tad more mature. I still like to do the same things (hang out with family and friends, have fun, and live every day to the fullest). So I ask you this.... if every fiber in me is the same ole Kristi... where the heck is the size flippin 5 Kristi?!?!?! Now that my friends, is the part I am STILL waiting on. LOL ;)

Cole's an artist!!

So I had to share. Cole is a very talented and creative little guy We got a letter home today from his art teacher that he has not 1 but 2 pieces of art that will be displayed at the administration building for the month of October!! He is so excited and proud!! He just so happens to take after both of my brothers who are artistic genius!! Hey... how is that fair?!?!?! I couldn't even draw the friggin turtle they use to put in the newspaper for kids to earn scholarships to art school. Oh well.... I have my talents. :) As you can see he has always had the love of art.
