We were there, for a minute

Livesay boys visiting our old stomping grounds.

While I was running in and out of Grammy and Gramp's house (packing the car), Major shimmied his way into their fountain. He's so proud. Little booger! Shoes, socks, shorts, diaper... soaked!

We made a short visit to Spring for the Livesay golf tournament. Short as in about 24 hours. It was nice to see Bob and Ann before the tournament. Stephen had a little time with us, so we went back to our old neighborhood park (his choice, not mine. still a little painful for me). I actually shed a few tears as the boys played at the old playground. A little bit of an overreaction, but hey, it happens. Anyway, Stephen's former boss's wife, kept the boys for a couple of hours during the tournament. I went shopping and spent the whole time in Dillards. Not too long ago I might have turned my nose to such a waste of time, but this Victoria girl was enjoying all the choices in one place! My, how times have changed.

Jello

So this doesn't have much to do with jello but it sure is cute.

Hudson ended up eating a left over biscuit from breakfast.

Quick Trip

My parents made a quick stop in Victoria at the beginning of September. They drove through and spent the night after we all went to Hilary Gary's wedding in Marble Falls. Not many pictures, but we had fun. RayRay and Champ took the boys out after the rain and let them run and jump in the puddles, to their hearts content.

Who doesn't love a mini corn-dog?

My little climber and his mini corn-dogs.

Cuz time, Victoria Style

Soooooo excited for our visitor, Ryan-Kate

Checking out the joint

Major - sup people

Ryan-Kate - Excuse me, it's time for my close up!

Crazy meal time

I'm trying to remember where the kids clothes went so quickly. They had only been there a little while.

It must be genetic (the paci thing)

(Hudson sent his pacis to our baby cousin Cole soon after this. He's been paci-free for a month now! Yea Hudson!)

Ryan-Kate taking a moment

Chuck E. Cheese

Barney had a special friend the whole time we were there.

After RK's nap. Snuggle with mama.
