We meet an Olympian

Today we met Jonathon Horton the silver and bronze medalist in men's gymnastics at the Bejing Olympics. Pictured as well is his fiance who's father owns the gym where Kylie takes gymnastics. Also notice how little they are. I felt like a giant next to them.

DYLAN AND DUKE- BEST FRIENDS!!

Nikki wanted to be a kitty cat, ballerina, princess, fairy for Halloween. Hmmmm. I wasn't sure how we were going to do that one, so she settled on being a kitty one night and then the next day for a Halloween party she was a fairy.

My mom threw a Halloween party for the kids and then we went trick or treating in her neighborhood. The weather was AWESOME. We wore short sleeve shirts. AHHHH- it was great!!!

Kylie is a 60's girl.

Alexis wanted to dress up as a witch this year.

Dylan dressed up as a firefighter.

Emily I put this one in for you. This is my dad, who got left behind to pass out candy. What a guy! We sure love Paco!!!

Alexis celebrates her birthday at the iceskating rink. Matt, Kylie, and Alexis.

We went camping in Oklahoma and had to cross this natural rock bridge which was covered in water. I thought we were going to die.

We take grandma and papa to Southfork. Nikki and Dylan have fun horsing around.

Alexis was baptized in September. We are so proud of her! We had my parents there and well as Matt's parents. We also had wonderful friends and neighbors who were able to attend. Wow, I can't believe my baby is 8!

Dylan, my little man!!!

We had a great Halloween dinner with great friends.

Yes, we got a new dog and we named him Duke. I was completely out numbered and finally gave in. He acts a lot like my 2 year old.

DALLAS ZOO

WE RODE THE TRAIN (WHICH THE KIDS THOUGHT WAS THE FUNNEST PART) TO THE ZOO. WE SPENT THE DAY THERE AND THEN WE LET THE KIDS "GET THEIR FEET WET" IN THE LAZY RIVER. NEEDLESS TO SAY- THEY WERE SOAKED FOR THE TRAIN RIDE HOME.

FLYING HIGH IN THE SKY!

THE WHOLE FAMILY ENJOYED AN EVENING FLYING OVER TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA.

MATT EVEN GETS THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE OVER THE WHEEL FOR A LITTLE WHILE. (KIND OF SCARY - J/K)
