More Visitors ...


This was Tara' s first time to visit San Antonio ... so of course we had to take her to the Alamo ... I know it looks like I cut Ellie out of this picture, but she wasn't in her stroller ... she was actually standing at my feet ... I promise :) Pete and Tara flew in from Idaho ! Thanks for coming and spending your spring break with us ! They are expecting a baby boy in July ! You can see sonogram pictures of Jackson Owen on their blog link ...
Ellie loved feeding the baby ducks her goldfish ...
this picture makes me laugh ... Ellie would drag Pete to the playroom to watch a movie with her ... and if you notice ... Pete is sitting in the princess chair ...
playing with her animals ....
Nena and PawPaw came in on Saturday afternoon ... they went out to eat with us, played a mean game of marbles and Nena went to church with us ! Thanks for coming to visit !
Pete enjoying some of Rudy's yummy bar-b-q ...
Ellie and Nena
Ellie all dressed for church ... I love this dress and her and was trying to get a cute picture before we left ... but she wasn't really in the mood ...

Feeding The Dolphins

One of our favorites at Sea World is feeding the dolphins ...
" Here Cousin Ellie ... have a fish "
Banty and Tate
I thought this picture was funny ... Tate and Emmy are looking in the little fish bowls.... like "where did all the fish go ?"
Ellie would do her fingers like this and say "here fishy fishy"
Aunt Courtney had to hang on to Ellie tight ... she would have gladly gotten in the water with the dolphins ..
Ellie with her sweet Aunt Courtney ! Thanks again Aunt Courtney for coming to visit us !

A Few Random, Funny Pics

We got Owen a couple of ping pong guns for his birthday ... I'm not sure who had more fun with them ... the big kids or the little ones ....
Poor Nena .... I think she was being used as a shield ...
I don't have any pictures of Uncle Chris ... who was also very into this game ... because he was hiding behind the couch ...

I thought this picture was too funny ...
