Santa Claus-2010

We went to talk to Santa and I told Cole that we were headed to see one of Santa's helpers. Cole had a lot of questions, but he wanted to make sure that Santa got his list. Once we were there Cole was so animated and talked to Santa for about 5 minutes. We took the picture, walked to the car and then Cole said: " Mama, I am pretty sure that was totally the real Santa." It was priceless.

School Picture: Kindergarten

Here is Cole's school picture. I will have to say I think this is the best picture he has taken. Mom is so proud!!!

Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving at Grandpa and Meme's house in Del Rio. Cole played with his Uncle Evan's air rifle and is starting to learn the proper ways to handle a gun. Grandpa is excited that in only a few short years Cole will be ready to hunt with him. We also were able to spend some wonderful time with Uncle Dave, Aunt Susie and cousin David. We have missed them the past few years.

Halloween 2010

The race car picture was from the Halloween fair at the museum. We has so much fun. Cole played all the games they had set up but of course sitting in the race car pretending to be a race care driver was his favorite part.

Cole and his best friend Sierra went trick or treating together. He was stitch from the Disney Movie: Lilo & Stitch. He wanted to be able to have 4 arms and make strange noises. At least that was he reasoning for being the alien Stitch. Sierra was dressed as Daphne from Scooby Doo.

The Fair --South Plains Fair

We went to the fair with Cole's best fried Sierra. They talk about when they are going to get married, how many kids they are going to have, how many dogs..etc. It is pretty funny! By the way it is 3 kids and one dog. They had a lot of fun holding ducks and riding the rides. We had corn dogs, cotton candy, turkey leg, and a funnel cake. We had a blast.

Pumpkin Patch

We had a good time picking out pumpkins for Halloween. Cole wanted the little ones and we only got one big one for carving. He has decided that we have to make a ghost for the carving and it has to have crazy eyes.

First day of Kindergarten. August 2010

Cole started Kindergarten today. He was so cute. There were a few moms crying but I refrained. I think last year's pre-k prepared me for this year. He was excited. I hope the day goes well. I am having a hard time concentrating when I am wondering how he is doing. He does have one friend in his class from last year.

The Bahamas

I went to Nassau with one of my sorority sisters, Cassie. We had a blast. One night we came back to our room and there was a crab on the ceiling. Yes I said on the ceiling. He was hanging on tight. We had a hard time getting him off. We stayed at an all inclusive hotel right on the beach, with an ocean front room. Lots of good times.

Sardines, what?!

OK, so Cole decides that he wants to try sardines after watching Cloudy with Chance of Meatballs. I was like okay here you go, so we went to the store to buy some, popped them open, and yes he ate them. I was floored, and he loved them. He asked me to get them again at the grocery store last time we were there. He is definitely a character.

Summer time!

Here is Cole with the girls that live next door to us. They have so much fun playing together.

His first sport--Soccer

Cole played soccer this past year. He was on a team with 4-6 year olds. There were pretty cute. It was like watching a knot move around the field as they followed the ball. He loved it and would volunteer to be goalie every time.

Cole's Birthday Party June 2010

Here are a few pictures from his birthday party. He had a blast at Jump'n Jungle. It was a long day since we had two birthday parties that day, but we survived.

Having fun!

Ok so this is our first attempt at having a blog. I thought this would be a great place to keep updates on Cole and me. Everyone is always asking for pictures and I am not so good at sending them out. I will try to keep on top of things and add things weekly. I am sure most of the pictures will be of Cole. Thanks for follwing or looking.
