Momma's Night Out - Bon Jovi Concert

Amanda and I were so very fortunate enough to see the one and only Bon Jovi in Dallas and boy was it an awesome show! Everytime we've seen him he knocks our socks off! We drove up to Dallas Saturday afternoon and came home the next day...just the perfect little get a way for some "mommy" time! Thank you so much for a wonderful time Amanda...it's always so much fun when we're on an adventure...and talk about some delicious eye candy too!

Easter

Unfortunately daddy had to work another Easter but Caroline and I had a great day. We got up and went to mass (which was total chaos) and then spent the day up in New Waverly at our family's crawfish boil/fish fry. We had a great day and Caroline ran around until she couldn't do it anymore! The Easter bunny was good to the munchkin...I don't think I ever had a basket that overflowed like hers did!

How did the Easter bunny know I would like these Elmo eggs?

Getting Ready for Easter

I wish Caroline was able to understand how excited I was to dye Easter eggs with her this year. I told everyone I knew about my purchase of the Easter egg kit...I was counting down the days. I was hoping that Caroline would have been more excited for what was about to happen but it just didn't happen! Oh well...next year will bring a bit more emotion I hope. She wanted to lick every egg before we put them in the dye which was fine since they were hard boiled, but after that, she really wanted nothing to do with them. Momma had a good time though...

Girls Weekend in Galveston

Girls weekend in Galveston was so much fun and SO long overdue! This was my first weekend away with just me since Caroline has joined our family and let me tell you, it was SO much fun! My Aunt Sharon, Aunt Theresa, Aunt Susan, cousin Erin, mom and Celeste took Galveston by storm and had a wonderful weekend full of laughter and special memories. This was a shot of the group after dinner at Rudy and Paco's located near the strand...excellent food and delicious drinks too...we were stuffed and all begging for our expandable PJ's!

Rodeo Time

In early March we took Caroline to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo...we went to see the petting zoo and all of the wonderful livestock animals too. It was the first time she was up close and personal to cows, goats, sheep, pigs, etc. She had a great time. We're looking forward to next year and her being able to ride some rides and get into some of the typical festival food!

There was a baby lamb born the day before we went and she was named Caroline too! Pooped from our day at the rodeo...she was zonked out!

Start of Racing Season

As usual, late, late, late! Back towards the end of February Kevin started his racing season running a Nascar Pro Series Truck...he's in heaven. I think he's done five races since the start of the season and so far he's not wrecked or had to do any major overhaul to the truck (wooo-hooo!). Here are some pictures from opening day...
