Brenton's New School Pictures

Shelly says it his Elvis look... I say its his "can we hurry up and get this crap over" look!

My Little Buddy is growing up way too fast!

Some really good kids in this class. Some awesome teachers too, and it's just Pre School.

Carnival 2010

We had fun at this years carnival but not near as much fun since Shelly was in Dallas. Krissy and Kaly came down to help out since I was still limited on what I can do with my hand since the surgery and the fact that my work schedule conflicts with the kid's.




Brenton and Kaly had a ball but were only allowed to ride 3 of the 20 rides because they weren't tall enough. They couldn't even go down the slide... Wondering what that was all about since last year they got to ride several and were much smaller then.... O'well. Here are some of the pics.
Too fun!





























OK, I'm board!

Girl Scouts in Fort Stockton Plant Gardens for Local Hospital Auxiliary

On April 6, 2010, several of the local Girl Scout Troops volunteered a few hours to the Pecos County Memorial Hospital Auxiliary. Each troop, from the Brownies to the Juniors, had a designated area where they put in plants, flowers, mulch and rocks in the newly built Memorial Garden on the South side of Pecos County Memorial Hospital.








"After moving in to the new Pecos County Memorial Hospital Auxiliary Gift Shop and Pantry in 2001, members of the auxiliary began discussing the possibility of developing a memorial garden outside the window adjacent to the gift shop in memory of past members." From the Fort Stockton Pioneer

After many years of fundraisers and donations the project is due for completion in the next few months. These Girl Scouts have graciously agreed to help maintain the gardens in efforts to help "focus on developing knowledge about the West Texas ecosystem, a concern for conservation through critical thinking skills, provide new skills in wild-scaping, plant and wildlife identification along with the historical and cultural heritage of Fort Stockton."























Farewell Texas Stadium!

Easter Weekend 2010

This was a great weekend!
But needed to get a few things done before the day of Egg hunting and relaxation....
Since my hand was in a splint and mowing the yard was not something I could do, I convinced my daughter it was time she learned how to do it. (He he he!)
*Note: Tyla stated she never wanted to do this again. Dang.... I thought I was gonna have some help this summer...........O'well...






Not a bad job at all! Great work guys!



Then the kids decided that they needed to roast marshmellows!




Time to color Eggs....!









And then we had to blow bubbles!



Off to watch Alice In Wonderland At Stockton's

Great movie!










Easter Morning....



Sock'em Bop'em!



What's in this one?

Now time to play in the sprinklers!



Miss Priss and More Bubbles!

My kids version a water gun fight!

And what a way to wrap up a beautiful day...
a couple of games of Wii Bowling!
