Spring is here!

Last month we attended a Band Banquet for Daniel and Carley. I can't believe those two are in high school. Carly's about to start driving. They just got back from a trip to New York with their school. I haven't heard all of the stories yet but I'm sure they have some good ones.

We went to Childress for Mom's Birthday in April and took her and some of her friends out for lunch at the local Pizza Hut after church. It was a nice visit that weekend. There's just never enough time to visit everyone we need to. Happy Birthday Mom!

We made it to Austin to visit with Moises' mom a couple of weekends ago, she was in a car accident. Thankfully she was only bruised and sore. Jorja had a lot of fun following her grandma around.

We spent last weekend out in the yard, planting two oak trees and doing a little gardening. Dad and Tammy came over so we grilled out some fajitas. We've been spending a lot of time in the backyard this spring, Jorja loves being outside. She will play forever out there. She loves to eat potting soil and lick mud off of the spade (yuck). She also enjoys licking the concrete patio. What's up with my weird child? Tomorrow is her birthday. She'll be ONE!!!! I can't believe it. We are going to have dinner with Granny, David and Frances. Granny made cupcakes and is taking cupcakes and balloons to her daycare tomorrow for all of the kids. How sweet! We are also planning a big birthday party for Jorja on May 31st. I know it's a little late but Grammy will be out of school for the summer so she can drive down to visit for a while. Stay tuned for photos of the birthday bash! Our girl has now added "Touch Down" to her vocabulary as well as "Grandpa." She said her first phrase while mimicking me this weekend, "Lick her feet." Still no luck getting her to say Papi. Her dad is a little sad that this hasn't happened yet. I'm trying to get her to say "Go Romo, " hopefully she'll have that down by football season.
