sharing a little life!

Spring Break was lots of fun, maybe not too much of a BREAK, but any day you are a teacher and you don't go to school......trust me......ITS A BREAK! haha

Aaron went skiing with the "boys." Elli Kate and I got to hang out with TeeCee and shop and just have some much needed time off!

Aaron and his basketball team (asst coach) Estacado High school won the STATE CHAMPIONSHIP!!! We all went to Austin wore our BLUE AND SILVER, and cheered on the team. It was so much fun filled with family, great basketball, and of course a bit of shopping!!

You're loved by us!

Pretty in Pearls!

It is....

crazy around here, but we do crazy.....very well

January, which mean basketball is in full swing, and softball if about to begin (22nd)

so yes crazy is the word for the next few months.....

but at least we get to do crazy with this girl...

Elli Kate's First Christmas!

Hello December!

It just about passed us by on here! I have not updated in a while! OOPS!

We are doing great, and staying busy of course! Aaron is right in the middle of basketball season. They are doing really well, and we are crossing our fingers that state tournament in the near future. I have been out of coaching since the end of October, and I must say it has been REALLY FUN hanging out extra will Elli belly!

She is getting so big! She is already 4 months old.

She loves grabbing anything she can get a hold of.
She rolls over from her belly to her back, and is super close to going the other way as well!
She is a TALKER! It is really funny ....I'm afraid when she is about 2 we will not know what silence is!
She has not quite mastered sleeping through the night, but she only wakes up one time at night, so we are surviving just fine!
She has started eating cereal, and if finally getting the hang of it. The first time she tried it, it all got spit back out. Pretty funny really!

Here are some pictures from the last month! Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and May God bless this new fun year!

LoVe!!

Well CHEERS to another super fun weekend! TeeCee and the Woods and Waldrips came into town again for the Tech game, and we had such an exciting Halloween. Well actually we dressed Elli Kate up and didn't even take her trick or treating, but we took lots of fun pictures. Plus she was the cutest little snowgirl we have ever seen! We even painted her her tiny little nose orange like a carrot!
Then on Sunday we all went to church, and the nursery ladies said they wanted to keep our little Elli Belly! NO NO NO we want her! haha
Poor baby! Nobody loves her! ha!
Hope you all have a WONDERFUL WEEK!
LOVE from the Waldrips!

fun weekend anyone??

Well half of a fun weekend I should say! We had lots of fun with family, BUT poor Texas Tech!?!? What is the deal?! WHO loses to aTm?? Sorry aggies, but REALLY! We are just struggling this year....all that said UNLIKE all those mean crazy "Tech fans" who are bandwagon, ya know only like Tech when they play well, I still love my Red Raiders, and hope they bounce back ASAP!! Goodness!

Anyway, the Woods and Waldrip's were here this weekend for the game, and we had lots of fun. Here are some pics of Elli Kate in her Estacado Blue workout suit (Daddy's school) AND her outfit to cheer on the Red Raiders! Her cousin Carter LOVES her and takes very good care of her when he is here. He told us that he wants to trade us Averi (his sis) for Elli. SILLY CARTER!

There is also a glimpse at what Elli is going to be for Halloween, home made costume! ha! Aaron drew this, and it cracked me up so I included it for you laughing pleasure. But stay tuned for the real costume. I am sure if Aaron and I are making it, it will be comical!

Last but not least, Elli and I have been putting miles on her new jogging stroller from Pappy and Nana. She looks tiny in it, but LOVES going for runs and walks!!

What a fun weekend!!
