Andrew in front of an old cool Car. We liked the color.

On Saturday Andrew decided he was going to ride his bike without training wheels. I asked if he wanted help. He emphatically did NOT want help. He got on and did it the first try. He is now, a ridin' fool.

We're in Texas now baby. We've got the flag flying. I guess to truly be Texans, it would need to be the Lonestar flag.

This picture really lacks any interest but that is the Library. It is huge and has a great kids section, and summer programs for kids. This is a really cool area.

Lexie on the slip'n slide, one of the first days we were here. I love the big fluffy clouds and blue, blue sky. She is a fun girl and has the best laugh ever. In many ways she reminds me of me; although, she is super friendly to everyone and talks non stop which was completely unlike me a little girl. I was painfully shy around strangers and large groups.

The first Baptist Church



The water towers. These babies are your mountains. they let you know where you are at.

Lake Ray Hubbard. This is an awesome lake and if we are going to live here we really need a boat.

I noticed on the drive out they name towns a combinations of states of neighboring towns. Dallas and Rockwall and in between DALROCK. I also saw , Texarkana, Kanorodo. Little weird.

Better picture of Andrew with the Car.

Last night we went to watch Jeremy race his bike and this is the field we sat in to watch it was pretty. Would be a cute picture if she weren't bawling.

The Bike Race

Pretty view of the sky at the bike Race

Field at the bike race. This would be awesome place to take family photos. Texas that is. I can already think of like ten places which would be great. So if anyone would like to take a trip to Texas so an extremely amateur photographer can take you picture, you can stay at my place.

Quaint, little house on Route 66. These charming houses are all over the place. I love the flag pinned up on the porch, and I LOVE porches. One day I would like to have a porch like this.

Another cute house on Route 66

They have this little ponds all over the place, in developments, a lot of people have them in there front or backyards.

This is the 22 million dollar High school football stadium, which the voters voted in. I guess it is true high school football is huge in Texas.

A snapping turtle we saw in the road last night. We were going to try and rescue him, and when Jeremy tried to pick him up he tried to bite him. We decided to let the sucker get run over.
