when mommy is away, the boys will play

Well, when mommy is at work, the boys play. I found this on the camera the other day and thought it was too cute!

2010 Cotton Bowl

We headed to Houston New Year's eve to celebrate Christmas with the Whitaker's...it just happened that Ole miss was playing in the cotton bowl in Dallas AND they were playing Oklahoma State, Justin's dads alma mater!! We had the BEST seats in the most amazing stadium AND Ole Miss won, it couldn't have been a better day!! Curtis, Racheal, Mike, Keri, Justin and I had a fabulous time! A HUGE thank you to Vickie who played with Colton at the Hotel :)

some late Christmas pictures

Sorry for the lack of posts lately...I'm going to try to be a little better this year with blogging (but I'm not making any promises :)) We made the long drive to Orlando for Christmas, and it was well worth the drive. We had to leave a day later than planned because Colton came down with the stomach virus. Of course in the chaos of dealing with a sick baby, I left my camera at home...typical. Here are a couple of pics of Justin, Colton and I at home before Christmas.

Thanksgiving...a little late

So my blogging has been slacking lately...mainly because Justin has been in Oklahoma lately with the computer, which means no way to upload pics.

We headed to Texas for Thanksgiving and had a fabulous time...despite all the driving! Great family + great food = great time. Although, Colton went through a big mommy/daddy phase and had to be in our arms often!

The holiday's are always a busy time for us, we do a lot of traveling, so please be thinking of us these next few weeks as we travel to Florida for Christmas and back to Texas for New Year's...we have to keep at 16 month old entertained...ahhhh!

happy halloween

Justin, Colton and I headed to Jackson to meet up with the Shaw's for Halloween. Colton was a duck hunter (aka 'dad') and Rylee was a pirate. The park in Flowood had lots of activities for the kids to do, unfortunately, Colton didn't take an afternoon nap, so the evening was not tons of fun...all he wanted was to smash his gun on the ground and play with his "baboon" (balloon). The other pictures below were taken a few weeks prior to Halloween at Cedar Hill Farm.

On my big green tractor

Last weekend we headed to Oklahoma for a small family get together. In between family gatherings, Colton and I headed to the shop to help dad on the tractor (I forget what this thing is called). Colton LOVES anything he can ride on, so this huge 'tractor' was a blast for him!!

Triathlon

Two weeks ago, Justin, Curtis (Justin's brother) and I competed in the Delta State triathlon as a team in Cleveland. We are not completely sure how we finished...we didn't stay for the awards, because Colton was passed ready to go, but there were 8 teams, we weren't in the top three, or last, so we were somewhere in the middle!
