Love Love Love

Here is my little love at his daddy's rodeo bbq on a gorgeous Sunday! Kiki and Jill came with us, and Kiki even entered a dance contest! Radio Disney was there too - so much fun!

Thanks to an idea I saw on Pinterest, I am now organizing all of G's arts and crafts. No more crayons and playdoh in random locations!
Daddy was out of town last week for work so when he came home early Friday, he surprised G at school and took him for a yogurt treat. Can you tell how much he missed him?? We all did!

For Valentine's Dad (since Daddy was away), we went to spend it with Mi-Maw, Kiki, and Jill. Here are our little loves after dinner with their treats!

Daddy and Griffin sent me these gorgeous flowers at work! Made my day!

Griffin and I also made these treats for his teachers at school. They were fun to make and eat!

My little Valentine opening his gifts from Mommy and Daddy....

....a new movie, a coloring book, and some Starburst (his current favorite candy!).

Happy Love Day to all of you! Loved spending it with my family and glad Daddy is home safe and sound!

Fun in February...

February Highlights:


Check out G's new toybox - Daddy made it! He began working on it for G's 1st birthday....but no matter the time it took it make it, we love it! My favorite part is the chalkboard top!


We had monthly Dinner Club at the Spencers - Super Bowl! Here are all the little ones enjoying some yummy food. They had a great time playing while the dads watched the game, and the moms talked about everything BUT football :)
We also went to dinner for Aunt Jill's birthday - Kiki and G enjoyed some ice cream before dinner! They also have a great time at our house making Valentine's Day crafts!

DELISH!

We sang HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Jill and had another sweet treat!

And birthday parties....G's social life is full! This boy loves a good birthday party! Sorry for the blurry picture, but here are Griffin and his buddy, Caleb, climbing the big slide at Makayla and Madison's birthday party. He LOVES going to the parties for all his buddies at school - they are so cute!

We went on a triple date with the Roffs and Odells. Loved some adult time and many laughs! Here are the dudes out in City Center - Glenn, Rick, and Hansio

My steak, shrimp, and crab. Uh...YUM!

And this is the BEST dessert I have had at a restaurant - milk chocolate mousse pie with a homemade marshmallow on top!

BFFs - Hans and Glenn

My love

Fun night for all! Looking forward to more fun in February!

Having fun....

We are on the go this month and enjoying every second! One of our favorite babysitters was in town for the end of the holiday so we went to eat with her and sweet family. G LOVES Kendall (I do, too!) She is so sweet with him!

We made our first trip (and not our last!) to Menchie's. Love me some sweet kisses!
We played hide and go seek - look who I found in the tree!

Someone got a haircut and stayed VERY still. I was pretty impressed since he never stays still for long!

We also made a trip out to Humble to celebrate Graham's 2nd birthday! Here is the sweet birthday boy - is he cute or what??

Hot dogs with AJ!

My sweet friends. I've said it before, and I'll say it again...I am so BLESSED to be close with my friends from high school. I love laughing with them, having our kids play together, and catching up like we've never been apart. I love you Lori, Amanda, and Ivonne!

What's up, 2012!

We are having fun so far in 2012! Santa brought Keaton a trampoline so we went to jump on it this weekend. I even jumped for a bit with the boys - I had a blast! They were cracking up!


We also started another year of Dinner Club - this weekend was at the Odell's where we ate some yummy spaghetti and watched the Texans win! The Sauceda sisters were all about taking a picture; the boys...not so much.

We also spent our last day of the break with the Onhaizers at the zoo! The train ride was a hit!

Best buds - Braxton and Griffin

Our attempts for a monkey picture.....









HAPPY 2012!

2011 Christmas Card

My sweet friend, Rebecca Read, did our Christmas cards this year. Love them!


BACK

FRONT

The End of 2011

The Reed family enjoyed 2011 - especially with this busy little guy!

Blessed.

Hans and I were able to have a nice dinner out this NYE. We had a great time and ate a great deal of food :)

We came home and lit up the fire pit that Hans made while we watched some fireworks from the backyard.

But first, my mom and I went to the Aggie bowl game. We had so much fun, and I am glad we were able to spend this time together. I love watching Mom get just as excited as I do about the best school EVER.



I love this picture.



One of my favorite parts of the holiday season is seeing all my dear friends from way back when! This past Friday, I was able to head to Humble and spend time with a wonderful group of girls. Here is a picture of Rani, me, and Heather. Beautiful girls!

And I'm pretty sure I wouldn't function without Ivonne and Lori. They make me LAUGH - such amazing friends.

Since the Egans were in town from Indiana, we had them and the Armstrongs over for pizza and fun with the kids. I love telling old stories and still cracking up with these folks. BFF - for sure.

2011 has brought many new memories, and we look forward to the blessings 2012 has in store!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
