Things we like about Texas:

#1 Lots of Sonics!

A little something to tide everyone over while you wait for more of my blog catching up...

Route 44 diet coke with vanilla is our favorite.

Happy 29th Craig!

May 20th was Craig's birthday. Of course we had a celebratory dinner at Sonny's!

I attempted a cookie cake this year. It turned out pretty well, except I had spelling/drawing issues.

Orlando Fun

Kent and Natalie and their family came to visit from Washington and to be at Craig's graduation. They invited us to spend a few days in Orlando and we enjoyed some relaxing by the pool.

Riley rolls over!

May 17th, Riley rolled over for the first time! He rolled back to belly and it was quite some time before he learned to roll belly to back and still rarely does that.

"Momma, I'm not sure what just happened..."

"..but it was awesome!"

Riley's baby blessing

May 2, 2010 we had Riley's blessing in church given by his Daddy. We're so glad we got to share this special day with friends and family- sorry we don't have pictures of everyone as people had to get to their classes to teach, play piano, etc, but we're so glad you were there!

Riley was obviously very excited about things. Typically babies are blessed much younger than Riley, but we had trouble getting a date with everyone in town. We joked Riley would be old enough to turn and wave to the congregation after his blessing.

The Rodgers. These are the parents of Craig's friend Chet who passed away in college and who Riley's middle name is after. We were so happy to have them there!

George and Laura.

The Harrells.

The Toblers.

Val and Christian.

The Barlows.

Hello out there??

I have SO much blogging to catch up on so be prepared over the next week for lots of posts! I have been without internet, tv, and a washing machine for some time now. I probably should have announced we were moving... but FYI we now live in Frisco, Texas, just north of Dallas. We're waiting on Craig's license and then he will be beginning work! I just wanted to let everyone know that we are still alive...you'll hear from us soon.
