Go Astros

A friend gave us free (really fabulous) tickets to an Astros game. We made it to the 6th inning before Audrey started getting a restless which I consider a success.  She loved clapping and dancing along with the crowd.  She told me "clap your hands mommy." When I did, she said, "thank you. you're so sweet."   Since our seats were slightly to the right of home plate, we were in the foul ball zone.  We had a close call and I practically jumped on top of Audrey so the ball wouldn't hit her.  Turns out it went a few sections over but this mama bear was on her toes!

Hello Summer!

Memorial Day Weekend

We visited Bryan and Stephanie over Memorial Day Weekend.   Such a simple and fun weekend!  

IronMan Texas

Neal completed his second Ironman triathalon in May.  He worked his tail off training and shaved about an hour off of his time from the last time he did it. These things are hard on our family but seeing the sense of accomplishment when he (and so many others) cross the finish line brings me to tears.  

We got to the hotel and this gal wanted to know "where's the beach?" 

 Neal went to bed early the night before the race so we went out to explore a little.  

A long day of cheering.  

Mother's Day

I had the perfect, low key Mother's Day this year.  Hearing Audrey tell me "Happy Mudders Day" was all I really needed but I do love the painting of Audrey and Mack that our friend did for us.
