A New Blogger?

Walker might be ready to blog on his own... the computer is motivating some attempts of crawling!

He's on the Move

Walker isn't exactly crawling yet, but he is on the move.

Umm, is that Walker under the chair???



And, here's one more pic... just because he's so cute!

Go Frogs!

My little Horned Frog looked fabulous in his purple over the weekend!





I must admit, he was sleeping during the first half, but when he woke up, he was ready to cheer on the Frogs!



(notice the Longhorn blanket... Walker really does like to support both teams!)

And, here's the disclaimer to all the Longhorn fans... Yes, Walker was wearing purple.. yes, it was on all day on Saturday... but, there are reasons:

#1. It was TCU's first game of the season (Walker wore burnt orange last week)

#2. TCU's game was bigger than UT's game

#3. TCU was on tv and UT wasn't (this is a whole other blog in itself... Direct TV decided to DROP Versus, blah blah blah. Not only was this a problem for the Longhorn game over the weekend, but TCU plays on this channel FOUR times this season! What am I going to do?!?!?!?)

#4. Clark and I have an agreement, if our two teams play at the same time, Walker will wear the colors of the more important game

#5. Hopefully they won't play at the same time again this season (If they play at different times, that will give us a chance for a wardrobe change!)

The good news, both the Horned Frogs and Longhorns won this weekend! Maybe they will be the only two teams to go undefeated!

All the football action wore our little man out:

Top Gun Hummingbirds

Hummingbirds are so interesting to watch. At the beginning of the summer we were lucky enough to have several little guys visit us quite frequently. And, now that the birds are migrating, we have TONS!

And, they get pretty darn aggressive! We enjoy sitting outside watching them. Walker finds them fascinating.

I have figured out that my mind works in strange ways. The other day Walker and I were sitting outside watching and listening to the hummingbirds. They are very noisy... not only their frantic chirps, but also their zooming! As I was watching, I couldn't help but think of Top Gun.



I'm pretty sure one of them is named Maverick and he's saying:
Tower, this is Ghost Rider requesting a flyby.

And my response is, of course:
That's a negative, Ghost Rider, the pattern is full.

And, then when they get all around the feeder and start fighting, I think of Viper:
We were in the worst dogfight I ever dreamed of. There were bogeys like fireflies all over the sky.



And, I'm pretty sure Iceman is out there:
You can be my wingman any time.

If one ends up in the pool, I'll know it was Goose.

Grown Up Boy

I just had to share these pictures from after church. (Walker is still doing great in the nursery)

Our Little Man is looking so grown up!

The Eyes of Texas

Walker has been initiated into the world of college football! And, his team got a big win!

Daddy thinks he looks pretty good in his Longhorn burnt orange!





So, it was an eventful day. BYU is a rival of TCU's in the Mountain West. And, while it was very difficult to root for them, I actually did last night and they beat OU! Clark was thrilled with the OU loss and now I'm crossing my fingers. This win for BYU will make a TCU win over BYU even better!!!!

Next week the Frogs start their season... Walker will be wearing purple!

Texas-Tuscany? What Does that Mean?

How do you spell retired?

B-E-N-T-W-A-T-E-R!

Bunny and RayRay moved to their new house a couple of months ago and they are loving life there.
I wanted to share of few pictures of their beautiful new home!





I think Bunny has done a very good job of decorating, considering her "decor style" is made up. It's called Texas-Tuscany. So, it's a combination of a house you'd find in the hill country of Texas and a villa in Tuscany.







That's a cowhide on the floor! I love it!

And, what's RayRay's favorite room of the house...



That golf cart is bringing RayRay lots of enjoyment... All he has to do is jump on there and head out to one of three golf courses.

Not a bad way to enjoy retirement!!!

And, a quick side note: College football is here! Clark and I have games to watch all day. Literally, the first game starts at 11 and we'll probably still be watching football after midnight. Gotta love it!

And, a piece of good news, since TCU doesn't play tomorrow, Clark and I don't have to fight about what color Walker wears tomorrow. He'll be decked out in burnt orange and I don't mind a bit!
