Snapshots of life in Texas!

Sometimes, pictures really do just say it all!

The girls help with making their lunch:

And continue to love dressing up & dancing:

Look who is standing!!

Some pictures snapped in our backyard after church yesterday:

Trip to the Symphony

The girls and I have been enjoying dates to the San Antonio Symphony with our homeschooling group.  A couple weeks ago, the symphony did a special weekend performance for kids so we were able to bring daddy along too!!  They had an "instrument petting zoo" before the concert where kids could look at and play various instruments.  The oboe section made double reeds out of drinking straws for the kids so they could practice "buzzing".  The concert theme was "At The Movies".  It was a great time!

Here we are waiting for the performance to begin:

Thank You Mike & Karen!!

There is NOTHING more delicious to 4 small girls (and their mom!) than a package FULL of girly, fun things to celebrate Valentine's!  This post is late because I was hoping to snap more pictures of the girls enjoying ALL their fun goodies but my camera never seems to be at hand "in the moment!". 

If you didn't already know it, Abigail LOVES yellow (pronounced "yel-LOH").  When she saw this yellow star wand she was without words! Her body wiggled from head to toe with excitement and she grabbed it and twirled around.  She looked at me and said "Oh mommy, a yellow star!".  PRECIOUS :)
The girls gushed over Valentine socks, heart shaped drinking straws, stickers, jewelry, HAIR BOWS, and precious outfits!  Here is Miss Abigail in her new shirt and pants:

Britta has worn her sweet outfit MULTIPLE times and I promise a picture very soon!  She is constantly on the move and therefore rather hard to catch with the camera :-)

Thank you for the sweet fun, delicious memories in the making, and once again, reminding us how very much we are loved!

WE LOVE YOU RIGHT BACK!!!
