I finally got my computer up and running again, so here's the Texas-Sized update. We are loving the new house and our neighborhood. The kids enjoy their new-found freedom of riding their bikes in the cul-de-sac and along the walking trails and around the lakes and parks. Their favorite thing to do at the end of the day is to walk over to one of the lakes with their poles and hot dogs (that's what they use as fish bait) and catch some fish. It never takes more than a few minutes (usually less than 60 seconds) to catch something. Their favorite fish-tale was a few days ago....Jared and Shane were trying to unhook a catfish he had just caught and Sara caught a perch at the same time, so she was dragging her fish in the water waiting for them to release Jared's fish when a HUGE bass swallowed her fish, and made a big splash, scaring me half to death - I screamed - Jake cried and Shane quickly grabbed her pole and tried to catch the bass, but he just ended up pulling the perch out of the bass's mouth. They all thought it was very exciting.
Second to fishing are the parks......there are lots and lots of parks!
The kids and especially Paris love having a backyard to play in. Sara was practicing to be a water-hair stylist and was experimenting with Jake's hair.
Everyone, except me, thinks its great that there are creepy crawling things. During the day the kids catch anoles and at night there are geckos. Jared loves to play "laser tag" with the geckos.
Jake is growing up and is just as cute as can be. He is finally walking and loves exploring new things.
