Family Fun

Well, we as a family finally took some time to spend together. B and B wanted to go to the zoo, so off we went. I must say, I had so much fun.

We went to the small zoo in Gainsville, it is about an hour from our house. It is so cute and the kids loved it. To all of our surprise, Bonnie fed the goats along with Brennen. This was stepping outside of her box totally. For a child that does not typically like animals up close, she did a great job and we were so proud of her.


We also road a small train, which to Brennen was the best thing on earth. He loves trains, so to ride a train was the icing on the cake. He loved it. Shannon and I laughed at the kids the whole ride. They were on cloud nine and could not stop smiling and pointing at everything. It was so fun to watch them take everything in. I love the innocence of children.


Of course, after a long day at the zoo we must stop and refresh ourselves, so we stopped at Wendy's and ordered some frosty's. YUMMY!!


What a GREAT day we had as a family!!!!

Graduation for Shannon

Sorry it has taken so long for me to update. It has been so busy the last two months. Well, it has finally happened. Shannon graduated with his Masters on May 3rd. We went for a long weekend and had so much fun, hanging out as a family. My mom went with us to Lubbock on Thursday, Ken and Kathy, my in-laws came up on Friday and my sisters and nieces came up late Friday night. Saturday was the icing on the cake. We just laughed, talked, and had so much fun the whole weekend.

Congratulations Shannon on a job well done!!
