Why are you mad at the lawn mower?
I found this on my hard drive and thought I would share. Hershey, our young black lab a couple summers ago had a serious problem with the lawn mower. She has since almost grown out of this habit 
Pulling Corn Stalks
Every summer for the last many years the family helps pull Grandpa’s corn stalks. This year we left a couple rows to shade the tomatoes. It does not look like a lot of work but it is a good workout for the entire family.

What happens when the trailer breaks
An hour from the house…. Luckily a Wal-Mart was near because my trailer spare was the wrong kind.

Watercraft would not start so we got to ride bikes on water
Ryan Skating @ Cedar Park Center
Ryan was invited to skate at the Cedar Park Event Center where the Texas Stars play. He was invited because he sold tickets as part of the Peewee age division to one of the final regular season games for the Texas Stars.
Unfortunately, I started goofing off and not video taping so this is the only segment I caught.
WOW…
Just one word is all I have after watching my daughter perform her first ever voice song in front of an audience. The reason we are so amazed at her performance is that Krystal just started voice lessons recently and she has came a long way with her voice in a short period of time. And the most amazing thing is seeing our shy little girl perform with such confidence on stage. We are so very proud of her…
Why hockey coaches should wear face shields
Last night during my peewee practice I was being a big tough defender during warm-ups. The player did a backhand scoop of the puck and BAM. Soon after, I noticed a big pool of blood in my hand and on the ice and the end result is 5 stitches and some pretty good bruising. Needless to say, I will be buying a shield before my next practice.
Day after pictures for your enjoyment…
Enjoying the new Leander Skate Park
During the Christmas break we got a chance to play at the new Leander Skate Park. Krystal had a blast riding her scooter in a lap formation around the skate park. Krystal also spent some time in the bowl and learned how to balance herself on the walls. Ryan spent most of the time in the bowl and learned how to drop-in.
Of course I just had to help Ryan learn how to drop-in from my Clown Ramp days in Dallas but I have to admit the kid picked up dropping a lot quicker than I ever did.

Ryan’s Toilet Paper Holder
Today we went Xmas idea shopping to fill out our Xmas lists as a family and Ryan cracked a funny one.
He got real excited and said, “Hey mommy look at this great toilet paper holder.” Ryan’s Toilet Paper Holder
We all had a good laugh and let him know it was a wine rack
