I'm alive!

Seriously???  Its been over 2 months since my last post?!?!  I was WAY behind then, so you have no idea what you have missed by now!  lol

It would take me forever to catch up, so I will do a quick recap and then start fresh!  I cant tell you how fun and refreshing it is to sign on everyday and read all about your blogs!  I guess I just got carried away and forgot all about mine!

I didn't even realize blogger had made it a little easier to upload pics! (finally!) Maybe it wont be so long until I'm back!  :)

WARNING..serious picture OVERLOAD!

Football season has officially begun!  Landon started his first year of tackle and we both LOVE IT! 

These are our awesome little cheerleaders holding the sign for the boys to run through!

 Go Landon!!

 He is the kicker, line backer and tight end!

 Some of his support team! Skylah and Crystal

Nana :) 

 and of course Bryan and Gavin too!

Landon and his best bud Aidan! 

 These pics are out of order, but we made it over to Lafayette right before school started to see Grandpa, Mammy, Tyler and Tayla (Landons half siblings)

 Of course we got in some fun swim days too :)

 1,2,3 JUMP

 Last week the top dancers of So You Think You Can Dance came to Houston!!

 It is always so awesome to see them live!

Bollywood! 

Thanks to my wonderful friends Nat and Nicole for loving the show as much as I do! 

 Love this girl!!

 Birthday Dance! (as you can tell I am a huge SYTYCD fan!!)

and just to really throw this post all over the place, here is a pic of Landon's NASTY spider bite we got the week before school started!  This was day 2 and believe me, you don't want to see ANY pics from after that day!  lol

I was marking it each night to see how much bigger it was getting!  Yuck! 

 Miss Skylah turned 10 last week!!!

 and what 10 year old doesn't love Justin Bieber?!?!

 Our little family :)

 Nana, Landon and Mimi at his 2nd grade music performance!

 Landon thought they were too cool! (which they are!!!)

Kelly took some awesome pics of Landon and Tayla on picture day for football! 

 Brotherly, Sisterly LOVE!

 This is one of my favorites of the day!  They were cracking each other up!!

 So sweet!!!

 Future Pro player and Miss America!

 So needless to say, after seeing those pics and knowing that I had been in the market for over a year, I decided it was time to get a new camera!!  I decided on the Nikon D3000 and I LOVE IT SO FAR!!!  I have SOOOOO much to learn, but have enjoyed it already!

This weekend we played soccer too!  (we are crazy, I know!)

We will only play about 3 games this season, but we sign up to keep our spot on the team for spring!  lol

Trying out my new camera!!!

 Throw in :)

 Landon running through the sign!

So there you have it..a little catch up (ok, alot more than I planned on!)

I think that might be my most RANDOM post ever!  ha

Hopefully I will be back to blogging more regularly!

Hope you enjoy!  Feel free to give any tips on the camera too!  I know alot of people are very passionate about their Nikons!  :)

Makeover and ROLL TIDE!!!

As you can see, I finally got a new blog makeover!!  Its been a while and I finally asked Krystyn over at Krizzy Designs to do it!!  She is a personal friend of mine from school! (and way before that!)

She did such a great job and I love it!!  Hope you do too!

Please check her out at http://www.krizzydesigns.com/ for blog designs, announcements, or invitations!  Her stuff is AWESOME!!

I had to add these next pictures!!  We have a divided house tonight

6-ALABAMA (Julia, Faith, me, Crystal, Landon and Myles!)

Most of my family wants to disown me, but I'm sure they will forgive me soon!  :)

Julia and Faith

"Roll" "Tide"

Landon and one of the UT fans, Gavin (even though he is still wearing red!) lol

UT fans on the bottom, right where they belong!!!  ha

We are all pumped and watching the game!!

ROOOOOOLLLLLLLL TIIIIIIDDDDDE!!!!

We will see if I can proudly say that tomorrow!  ;)

No pics of me, but here is my shirt!  bwahahahahaha

Landons 1st Football Game! Go Ravens!

Landon started football a couple weeks ago and LOVES it!

Yesterday was their first game!!

Go Ravens..Russell #25

Bryan, Faith, Crystal, Myles and Skylah waiting for the game to start..it was sooooooo HOT.  2:00 games are going to be tough and we have like 4 more!!

Listening to coach pump them up for the game!

Jordyn, Justin and Skylah trying to stay cool!  ha

Ravens cheerleaders!!

Most of our clan...we had so many of our wonderful friends and family come out and watch him!

Thanks Nana, Corky, Skylah, Faith, Myles, Ajax, Nat, Jeff, Kate, Lissa, Mike, Jordyn, Quintin, Austin and Justin!!  We love you all so much!

Look at that face!

Playing tight end!

Our awesome shirts!!

When we got home and took off his pants, he thought it was so cool how dirty his legs were!  lol  You could see where his pants and socks ended!  lol

Oh he is such a boy ;)

We played the Broncos and won 7-6!  They all played so good!

We learned alot though...bring WAY more water, need a tent, and more sunscreen!  3 1/2 hours out in the sun at 2:00 in the afternoon is a scorcher in Katy!  lol
