OMG

We started the high school registration process for Michele a couple weeks ago. They require us to map out all four years to ensure all her requirements are met. It took a while, but we got it done. I don't remember having so many options to choose from when I was in high school.

She also started practicing her flag twirling to try out for the color guard team in April. I just can't believe she's going to be in high school. They are growing up so fast. It makes me sad, but I have to admit we have a lot of fun. I think we have more fun now that they are older than when they were little. They are great kids and I am so proud of both of them.

Michele's Birthday

Michele turned 14 on February 13th and she wanted to make her own cake this year. I think it turned out really nice. Good job Michele!

Party People

We took her and her two friends Mady and Caitlyn to Shogun Steakhouse. It's one of those places where they cook on the grill in front of you. It was a lot of fun.

King Tut

We spent a day at Dallas Museum of Art. Unfortunately they don't allow photography in the exhibits. The King Tut exhibit was very heavily guarded.

Apartment Art

Michele took these. This is an apartment building across from Campisi's where we ate lunch. She thought the murals were really cool.

Crocodile Dundean

Friends of ours just bought a ranch near us and Dean was helping them move in. He didn't know he was going to have to use his mad skills. If it didn't have that big gaping hole from the shot gun I think momma could have had herself a nice purse. I here rattlesnake is good eats, but alligator is about as exotic as I get...I like gator!

Let's Go Hiking

Dean and our friend Roger use to ride their mountain bikes through this park when it was just a bunch of dirt trails. Now they turned it into a really nice nature perserve. You can still ride your bike, but the challenge is gone. Most of the paths are paved and there are a lot of people walking.

Way To Go Jenn!

Jenn started rock climbing at the beginning of the year and she is doing really well. I'm so proud of her. Thanks to her coach Munchie (Gillian) she helped Jenn overcome her fears and by the third day she made it to the top! She isn't able to flash (successfully complete a climbing attempt on first try without advice or instruction) a wall yet, but at the rate she is going I'm sure she will.
