Pics from around the house
This is after we got back from the library. We were wild and ready for dada to get home.



Porter getting the nighttime giggles.



Jumping and tumbling on the couch.






Big boy.



Get outta my way brother. I'm trying to watch enjoy a few moments of peace.



I'm telling Porter "I'm gonna get you"



Miss Abigail giggling.



Hey mom!

Library Time
The kids and I will start going to the library on most Fridays. To day we met our friends Caden and Jack.



Porter likes to Drag Blue's Clue and the big fish over and love on him.



Abigail showing Caden (or Jack) how it's done.



Oh boy! Freedom from the house.
Abbey loves birds!
The birds are starting to come around again. I put out some new food and the weather is great.

When are they gonna get here?


Waiting on some birdies.

Our trip to the pond
The pond is about 1/2 mile away. Here the kids are with dad ready for a short road trip.




Have fishy cups, will travel.



Fishies for fishes?



In the trees.



Fishy cup.



I'll watch him from a distance.



On a tear.



I got it mom, really.



You talkin' to me?

I don't think I need to tell you how happy I was to see this sign.
For those of you who don't have Taco Bueno (Bueno for short) and who are stuck with just Taco Bell or Taco Tico or Taco Cabana (which is also good) I'm sorry. I grew up on Taco Bueno. I always ordered 2 tacos and 1 bean burrito in high school. Shelley Magruder and I used to go there everyday.



The one and only in Austin. We drove 22 point some odd miles to eat here. And much to my delight we are getting one is north Austin. Hello! The old buildings are adobe looking huts. Now, I guess they have to keep up with the architectural changes everyone else is going for.

Here's the old look.




Me and Abbey about to gobble up a Bueno Chilada platter. Highly recommended.



Porter enjoying his outing with dad.



Porter eying the bean and cheese!



Bubby and dad with full tummies.





I'm pretty.




Lookin' out the window.
This was a good day. Afterwards we went to the library.
Cold Weather.
It's pretty cold and rainy here. Good family-time weekend.



Friday Night. Here, Mommy and Bubby watch Muppet Show DVD's from our library. Gene Kelly, John Denver and Elton John were the guests. So fun to watch these with the kids. It truly was a funny show. I think it was on Saturday Nights. Maybe Sunday nights. Then we have Little House on the Prarie DVD's to watch also. Now I know that was on Sunday nights. I watched it religiously.

Saturday Morning.



Abbey watching out the window.



All of a sudden Abbey is not in a good mood. Brother took her spoons and she wants to put on a different pair of shoes. BROTHERS shoes.



Still not happy.




Cause brother took your spoons.



She wants her spoon yet she has hers in her hand.



Not happy.



Happy. With her beads that grandma brought.
