Water in Face
This summer we had a chance to go visit Grandma and Grandpa in Okmulgee. During this visit Grandpa got his boat working so we took the boat out for a quick trip around the lake which the kids enjoyed. But the highlight of the event was Grandpa allowing the kids (me too) to ride in the back of the truck on the way back to the house.
The kids were singing and pretending to be dogs but the funniest part was when Krystal decided she wanted to try to spit water out of her mouth.
The video below best describes what she learned
Fall musical highlights…
This week the kids school hosted the Fall musical. Ryan and Krystal got speaking parts and they both had other parts as well. This was the first time that Krystal was a narrator at her school and she did a fantastic job. On top of that she had a dancing part and truly enjoyed that part as well. Oh, and a big shout out to mommy for getting these great shots!
Oh, Ryan was a speaker and a member of the choir and did a great job as well

Texas Stars, Warren Peters big hit Oct15th
Just happen to have my iPhone 3Gs rolling when Warren Peters came in and put a good hit on the other team. And, in my opinion this was the game changer that put Grand Rapids on their heels and Texas scored the game winning goal shortly after this hit.

Krystal’s 1st BIG Roller Coaster Ride
To finish up the summer we took a couple of days and went to Sea World in San Antonio. Well, guess what? Krystal is now tall enough to ride the 2nd largest roller coaster, The Steel Eel. This is a pretty intense coaster and the largest one she has ever ridden on. She had a blast and at the end of the ride she made statements such as, My stomach felt funny, and my bottom came off the seat
This pic says it all… (Krystal is front left, next to the goober with his hands up that covered mommy’s face, while no fear big brother is behind Krystal )
Burning the brush pile
We went to Okmulgee, Oklahoma for the 4th of July this summer and while staying Grandpa allowed us to “help” him burn his brush pile. Needless to say his brush pile was only about 10 feet tall and the fire was a little more intense than I expected. Enjoy this video preview
