Louisiana State Fair

Which one is the clown?? Ha ha ha. Jason, Crawford and the Sheriff of the fair.
Crawford's first big boy ride. I couldn't even watch without wanting to puke.


Last week, we decided to take Cman to the fair in Shreveport for some special time before Mr. Cash gets here. I was weary at first to buy him the arm band that cost and arm and a leg but allowed unlimited riding because he had never been to one where he would know if he liked rides or not. So, off we headed into kiddie town to ride those rides. He got broken in by riding the motorcycles, trains, fire truck that goes up and down, and the carousel. After that, he decided he would be real brave and venture to the big rides that he was tall enough for. There were several where he was still too short and I probably wouldnt have let him on anyway, but there were some he got on that I can't ride or even watch without wanting to throw up. With his daddy by his side, they rode the tilt a whirl, a fast ride that goes in circles backwards and forwards to loud music (puked once growing up after getting off that one), and one that goes in and out, in and out really fast. It was so much fun watching his face and of course watching Jason hold on to him and the bar so he didn't fly out. We ate junk food (Cash was very excited), played games and they rode every ride he could ride, some twice. It was a great way to spend all our money and the night.

Family Pics at Starr Ranch
















This past weekend, we had the opportunity to get our "pre Cash" family pictures taken down at Caddo Lake. We have a special "in" that got us down to the beautiful Starr Ranch house and access to Caddo Lake. Well, it's all on the refuge where Jason works, but it is still hardly open to the public, so we felt special. Kirbie did an awesome job and none of the colors are messed with, they are all the actual colors of Caddo right now. (BEAUTIFUL!!) Here are just a few until I get the disc to load them all. Hope you enjoy.

November thankfulness...

Day 1--Nov 1 (Tuesday)

I am thankful for a great God that is awesome and can do anything he wants with my life at any given time. I am thankful to be able to work at a school that I can worship him openly and with my kiddos in my class. I am thankful that he is kind and loving and has put me exactly where I am supposed to be in my life.


Day 2--Nov 2 (Wednesday)

I am thankful for my awesome family. I could not be where I am or who I am without them. I am the mother to the greatest little boy anyone could ever ask for with another one on the way. I am so excited that I get to experience the joys of our families together with the most awesome husband a girl could ask for.
