Aggie Weekend

Back on Labor Day we had a Aggie get together at our home. We had a reunion of our roommates from our days in College Station. It was wonderful to be together again. Although we were missing a few it was wonderful to be in the same place. We played games and just sat and talked. I do believe it has been over 8 years since we were all together. Wonderful, wonderful. We will do this again. We missed the Fry's (Steven and Jayla) and Mr. Donnie, we hope they will get to make the next one. Here are a few pictures from our weekend. In hindsight I should have taken a lot more, but this is what we have!
Brayson my little 42 player. Gig'Em

Kelton ready to go, and looking for trouble.

All smiles and cheesy ones at that. Excited to have a house full of people.

Showing our true colors

And yet another try!

Really, they are acting just like their parents!

Group pictures are always fun!

Maybe one of these will work.

Last time - it will work.

We had a wonderful weekend. Thanks for coming and making more memories. Looking forward to next year already. Gig 'Em Ags!

Cookie Making TIme

So, I am playing so major catch up on the blog. I will reveal my secrets at the end so stay tuned!!
Brazos, Brayson and I decided to make some cookies the other day. We though we could conquer Granny cookie recipe. We had a lot of fun baking and playing together. The boys really enjoying being a help to mom. I am so blessed to be able to stay at home with these busy boys. We miss having Braxton around, but try to make up for it on the weekends.

Brazos all smiles as he helps put the M & M's on the cookies. He wanted to do EVERYTHING!

Working hard and maybe sneaking a few M & M's along the way. He really was a big help. Brazos likes to talk when he is comfortable, and when he is comfortable is does not stop talking. This was one of those days. He was so super excited.

Brayson getting in on the cookie making action.
Sweet boys, hard at work.

Oh, I almost forgot my secret. Cindi told me about Picasa 3, it is wonderful. It cuts picture upload down by a LOT. Just hit the blog this button - WONDERFUL!!! Try it and see.

Cousin TIme

Brayson and Kelton were playing this summer and they found a snow hat. They proceeded to take it on and off of each other. They were having the best time. I think these two are going to be a lot of trouble as time goes on. They are so much fun to watch.
Brayson with the hat.
Look mom, I got it on "all by myself" He is getting so BIG. I wish some days I could slow down time and watch them grow all over again. And then other days I am thankful to be in the stage we are in now. Such blessings.
Here Kelton, let's put the hat on your head now. Good job Kelton for being such an active participant.
Okay my turn again. Kelton is still trying to figure it all out.
Sweet boys and sweet time.

Halloween Fun!

We had a great Halloween week. It was an adventure and I think at this point it will be an adventure for a few years to come. The boys were really into Trick-or-Treat this year. This year I asked the boys what they wanted to be and the chose Batman and Spiderman. Because Brayson was not able to voice his opinion the way I could understand he was a frog and a very cute frog if I do say so myself. Here are a few pictures from our adventure.

Spiderman chasing a frog. Trying to help I am sure, but I don't think the frog thought it was a lot of help.

Spiderman saved a wallet from a thief. He was so proud.

The Indian and Spiderman. The morning before school. Brayson was not impressed with my costume, he wanted me to take it off.

The best picture I could get of Brayson the frog. He wanted to do other things.

The two masked hero's of my house. Batman and Spiderman, our house is safe from evildoers.

We stopped to take some time to paint cookies. The boys really did enjoy this a lot more. I did this with my class at Superkids and they enjoyed it as well. There were some left over cookies and the boys were glad to hear it. They painted until they were all done. Then they enjoyed one or two. They really were good.

My precious three. Halloween 2009.

Our family at Trunk-or-Treat (thanks Kristi)

PaPaw and MeMe were on their way through and were able to trick or treat with us for a little while. The boys were really excited to see them. The boys were showing off their goodies too.

Pa Dale had a treat for them as well. Braxton really likes to go over there.

The last stop of the night was Dad Dad and Mamme's (Leland and Susan's). Brazos took off his costume before the picture, and Brayson wanted nothing to do with it. Thanks for being troopers!

Brayson picked out his own costume of Sunday. He wanted to be a super hero too.
Halloween 2009 - Super!!

Soccer Man

Braxton has been playing soccer in Lamesa this fall with cousin Karson. We got off to a rocky start, but once he figured out that he could play and that it was fun he was all in. He did not play the first game, he literally just stood there. But, by the next week he was running and kicking. He did a great job. Here are some pictures of one of the games. He and Karson had a good time playing and their brothers had a good time at the pratices and at the games. Of course these two boys came with their own cheering section! Great job starting and finishing strong Braxton, we are proud of you.


The huddle before the game. Everybody was ready to go!

Good game team.

Our first season of soccer is over. We had a lot of fun. There is already a lot of talk between Braxton and Brazos of when soccer will start again. They are both ready. Look out - here come those Beck Boys!

Looks like a little planning going on out there.

Enjoying a snack after the game. Great job Braxton!!
