We go visit the Glasshouse ruins.

There we see how they make hand blown glass.

Dylan loves to take bubble baths. What a mess it always turns out to be. We end up with bubbles everywhere.

Matt and I spend the weekend alone in Oklahoma City! We go visit the site of the Oklahoma City bombing.

We go to the botanical gardens. The best part we didn't have to chase around any kids.

Nikki and Dylan on a ride at the Carnival.

Alexis' teacher sends me a photo of her while at school.

Valentines Day! My mom throws parties for each holiday for the grandkids. They love it!!!

Christmas is here!!!

Kylie, Nikki, Alexis, and cousin Katie having fun together! The family gets together for a big yummy meal and then we have the telling of the Christmas story by Paco as the kids act it out. Baby Taylor was asleep, so Nikki filled in as baby Jesus.

Alexis is Mary and Dylan is Joseph, but we have a hard time keeping him interested when he knows that there are race cars in the other room.

The girls and Duke

I went ouside to check on the girls and this what I saw. The only one who knew I was taking a picture was Duke.

Santa's Village

We took the kid's to Santa's village. They went from one little cottage to the next. In one cottage they got to write letters to Santa, in the next they got to pet all of Santa's animals, and they gave out cookies in another, etc.....
