2015 Marfa Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving this year Todd, Candor and I decided to go to Marfa.  Todd has not been able to take a vacation this year due to how busy work has been so it was like a little mini vaca.

Marfa is a tiny little town with not much to do which is exactly what we were looking for.  We rented this awesome loft that is right smack in the middle of town.  We did nothing but nap, watch movies, cook, drink coffee, go to book stores, go to the local grocery, and walk around town.

Candor watching the Macy's Thanksgiving parade and getting fired up to see Santa.

Who doesn't want shrimp and grits for Thanksgiving?!?!  So good!

Shopping for books.

A trip to Marfa is not complete without stopping at PRADA MARFA.

Shopping for geode rocks.  No seriously we spent actual money on rocks.  Todd said the boy needed some rocks so the boy got some rocks!

Eating biscuits and cruising around town.

Life is good.  Drinking the best horchata latte and watching the big screen.

23 Months! (Townes)

My little man is now 23 months old! He is so happy, sweet and funny!  His days are spent laughing and smiling...with only a few tears thrown in there every once in awhile. His new favorite loves this month are dandelions and helping me do things. Townes can spot a dandelion from a mile away and insists on grabbing every single one of them. He also insists on helping me do everything.  Some things take a bit longer to do with Townes helping but I'll take them taking out the trash everyday! His favorite foods is still tacos.  He gets fired up anytime we mention tacos and starts chanting....'TACOS! TACOS!'. He loves soccer balls.  One day he had a fit to try on one of Candor's soccer uniforms.  I have never in my life seen anyone so proud.  He was glowing and thought he was so cool like his big bro. Todd ordered them both a new Liverpool kit which was also Townes first soccer kit of...

Frankenstein

Candor and I did our first craft project.  There were no fights and it 'kind of' looks like Frankenstein so I give it an A+!

2018 Valentines

Townes and Candor had an awesome Valentines this year. In early February Candor and Townes made some sweet little Valentines for some of their friends. Candor then had his Valentines Day Sock Hop at his preschool.  A few hours before the dance I remembered I had signed up to bring cookies so we raced to the IGA and picked up our 'homemade' cookies! We then started getting ready for the big dance.  Once we got to the dance we headed straight to the photo booth.  Candor loved posing with all his friends and we could barely drag him away. Candor then headed for the dance floor.  He danced, played limbo, and ran around like crazy.  All the kids had so much fun. On the morning of Valentines Candor and Townes 'raced' downstairs to see what they got. Candor then got dressed and headed to school with the Valentines for his friends and Ms. Suzi's gift. Candor insisted that we bring Ms. Suzi some chocolate c...
