All My Peeps

Happy Easter!

Today I had all my peeps over...such a joy to have your family around and having all grand-babies together is such a blessing and joy and not to mention...FUN! It was hard to decide which pictures from the day I would share with you...so after narrowing it down these are the ones....I may post a view more in a facebook album just to share more.

We start with pictures of the oldest...Grandchild #1...Colton...such a handsome young boy and oh so ever sweet.

And here he was with his bucket of eggs...he needed to know what was inside of them...all the babies got 20 eggs each

And then we have Grandchild #2....Miss Hayden....One beautiful little girl with a mind all her own. I know who the boss is in her house.

She was ready to eat when she arrived.

Above finding Easter Eggs and below laughing at the animal she got in her basket...a bunny that sang an Easter song, Here Comes Peter Cotton Tail and the ears move up and down.

And then there is Grandchild #3...Liam...handsome as can be...and a very sweet energetic little one.

Finding Easter Eggs

Liam looks like his mom (Jennifer)when she was his age but today in this picture he looks like his dad (today). So grown up looking.

Last but not least...Grandchild #4...Miss Tayler so sweet, dainty and beautiful, she's gonna be the one you'll need to watch out for...the headband didn't stay in all day so I'm glad I got this picture when I did, when she first got there.

And this little girl loves her eggs

Eggs anyone?

And then there is me trying to get all the grand babies together for a picture...still hard to do...you should of seen it trying to get them all together with the parents to take one of them all together....by then it was the end of the day, babies were hot and tired so most are not looking so we won't post any of those.

But we will post the individual families....

Liam with his mommy and daddy...Jenn and Paul who are expecting my 5th grandchild this August

Hayden with her mommy and daddy...Jessy and Josh

And Tayler and Colton with their mommy Tammy...their daddy Kyle couldn't be with us because he had to work today.

I tried to get a picture with all grand babies but this was all we could get that came out....me and my boys. They were drinking hard cause they were hot from outside....their little faces are all red.

Today was a wonderful day of fun and family but not a day forgotten why we celebrate ...for indeed

He Is Risen!

Thank you Father for Your sacrifice in Your Son and Thank You that 3 days later

He Has Risen !

Fun Day At Muggy's

Last Sunday Colton and Tayler came over for a visit and we had a fun day of play. I actually tried last week posting pictures and a write up of our day but some how posted it wrong and wasn't able to transfer the post so instead of searching for my words again I'm just gonna share the pictures. You'll have to wait for my Easter post to read me speak.

Colton so handsome and Tayler so beautiful....took me forever to get that one picture of her...as soon as she sat down she would hop back up...she loves outside so much she just couldn't sit still.

I just love this picture of the 2 of them...they both seem to be in their own little world or they are thinking about how much they love their Muggy.

It was a beautiful day spent with special babies.

Where To Begin

Life has been so different since opening the store that I'm still trying to get use to what my new life is.

Sometimes I want to post on the blog but then I think...what did I do to share that didn't involve work...

after all, I don't want to bore anyone if I don't have too. I have pictures to share of the grand-babies with their goodies from my trip to Boston...

I was waiting to post them until I could get pictures of all the babies.

Above is Colton with his Lobster hat and below with his Paul Revere hat.

Ever since Colton was a baby and I travelled somewhere I always brought him home a hat from where I've been....now every time I go to a new place I look for a hat. Looks like that is being trickled down to the other grand-babies too. Above is Tayler in Colton's Paul Revere hat...she wanted nothing to do with her Lobster hat, she wanted the Revere one....only if I would of known...next time they all get the same regardless boy or girl. but she did like drinking out of her new Lobster straw cup. Now Liam liked the Lobster hat but refused to put on the Paul Revere hat, he would push it away if it got near him and if we did get it on him it was off before the picture could snap and you could get your hand off the hat...go figure...scary Lobster -vs- black hat

he also enjoyed the Lobster cup....no worries...pictures of Hayden to soon follow below.

Last Sunday went to the last performance of the rodeo with my girls...Fonda and Stacy...I did have pictures to share BUT I forgot the memory card so the pictures are on my camera and I have no way at this time to transfer them to my computer....let this be a lesson...when you buy a camera and you get all those gadgets with it... don't throw them away thinking all you need is the camera and a memory card...you may end up with pictures without a memory card....Just sayin'.

Then this past week I had tickets for a Rockets game with a behind the scenes tour.

I won the tickets in an auction and had planned to give them to the sports lover in the family, my son in law Paul but he couldn't go so I decided to try something new and attend a game...had a good time but not sure basketball is my game.

Above is Luis Scola practicing....it's funny he always had his hands in his hair keeping it out of his face...if his hands weren't on the ball they were in his hair.

Stacy and Albert joined me for the game.

And there's a picture of #44 Chuck Hayes...during our tour we were in one of the bars outside of the locker rooms and right off the court...our guide was taking us across the hall to another location when as I was crossing from one end to the other, here came this guy running about a 100 miles an hour ...it all happened so fast you didn't know if you should go forwards, backwards or stand still so I just stood still in hopes I would not be road kill....

you could here the squeak of tennis shoes trying to come to a halt and all of a sudden this big dude had me by my arms and it was" hello"...It was Chuck Hayes and he was able to stop....a little freaky but cool at the same time.

And here is Miss Hayden who showed up yesterday. I haven't seen her in a couple months and it was obvious by her stand off-ish ways...but then again she has never been the affectionate one.

I couldn't get her to put her Lobster hat on but she did like the Lobster cup with just a little soda.

This little girl is really starting to grow and looking more and more like Josh.

So...that wraps up the week except for all the work days....today on my agenda is cleaning out my garage...I want to trade my Yukon in and before I do I need to have my garage cleaned out so I will have a place to park it... the garage since the holidays has become a place of...I'll figure where it goes later and things from the store as well...Tomorrow I will do a little work at the store while we are still closed on Mondays...the following Monday we start to be open on Mondays.

Enjoy your weekend and thanks for letting me share with you...especially pictures of my beautiful grand-babies.

Girls Night Out

Last night was Girls night...

Destination....Reliant Stadium for The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo

and

The American Bad Ass....

Kid Rock

All I can say is.... best rodeo performance I have seen...I left wanting more...

I need to see a full fledged concert and not just a rodeo performance.

I think I feel a road trip coming on.

Farewell To Boston

All good things must come to an end and so must our trip to Boston. On our last day in Boston and our travel day home we awoke to snow falling from the sky.

Such a beautiful sight but really cold as well.

We got up and got packed and went a head and checked out and thne checked our luggage and headed out to get a few snow pictures.After a little walk we decided to go to The Prudential building and do the Sky Walk and
take a look at the city from a different view. The snow was still falling.
They say on a clear day you can see to Cape Cop. Below is Fenway Park

And here is the river with a blanket of snow a top

The building in the middle is our hotel and right above tha,t there is a yellow line in the street...that is the finish line of the Boston Marathon.

Afterwards we stopped and had lunch

headed back to the hotel and killed time in the business center and then headed towards the airport...

Destination....

Houston and her lovely humidity to welcome us home.

There's No Place Like Home...

God Bless Texas

Greeting From Boston...Day Four

Today was another cold day but a beautiful one...the sun was in full force though.

Today we hopped back on the trolley to take us to Harvard.

The plan was to walk around and then head back but the trolley ride took forever and a day so we decide to just stay on and take a look from the trolley and head back into Boston. The town was busy...lots of cute shops and the University looked like a bunch of different buildings ...some here and some there...kind of scattered...and not a big deal....really I think we wasted a lot of our day.

Anyway, we got back to the point to take the trolley back into Boston but we decided to cab instead so we could see some of the churches that we wanted to see.
Here is Trinity church...beautiful.

Above is the pulpit where the preacher gives his sermon from.

Then we went across the street to this church...Old South Church

Not as big as the first or as beautiful but still an older church and still beautiful.

Then we were in search of our souvenirs to take home...we headed to Faneuil Hall and The Quincy Market place ...there we found most of what we were looking for...it was really hard finding souvenirs in this city, they aren't just everywhere.

Faneuil Hall was also a meeting place back in the day of our founding fathers.

Then it was time to head back to the hotel and freshen up for dinner.

Tonight was "Legal Seafood"....Yummy!
