I have decided I HAVE to be better about keeping up with my blog. I am making that a goal this year! I hope that even if I fall down, I will get back up and try again. So, here it goes...
The boys had the whole week before Christmas off, so we took off for the ranch (just outside of Del Rio). It was great hunting weather for the boys and I did not see much of them while we were there. They can be outside for hours - really quite nice - and I am so glad they are old enough to go out on their own!
G killed an Axis deer this year. For those of you that don't know, axis are native to Africa - they have spots and long, tall antlers. G was SO excited! Maybe one of these days I will have all my pictures uploaded so I can be current with those too. :) M also killed a VERY nice 8 point buck. Both of these will be gracing our walls in the not so distant future!
We returned to my parent's house in New Braunfels for Christmas and most of the week afterwards. While I have always been a Baylor fan, this year was more fun for us than most! We were thrilled in December when RG3 (Robert Griffen III), Baylor's quarterback, won the Heisman trophy. This was the first time in Baylor's history! What a class act he is! We were even more excited to find that Baylor would be playing in San Antonio in the Alamo Bowl. My dad was able to secure us tickets, so we got all decked out and off we went! We ended up having seats in the first level about 25 rows back on the 40 yard line! They were amazing. If you didn't see the game, the score ended up more like a basketball score than football, but Baylor pulled it out in the end with a 67-56 win over Washington. It was definitely a game to remember for all of us!
We were able to get up to Oklahoma for a few days at New Years. It is always so good to get to see friends and family, even for a short time.
After 2 weeks away from home, we were ready to get home and unpack! It is fun to get away, but always good to get back to your own bed and your own home!
Looking forward to hearing from all of you! Thanks for checking in on us (hopefully I can give you a reason to check in more often)!
Here are a few pictures from Game Day!
