Party at the Park


Last weekend William had a great time at his friend Carter's 3rd B-day. This was the first time William actually got in and enjoyed the bouncy castle. We also had a great time riding the train through the park. William has recently become very interested in trains and this was a fun treat. Thanks Morans!

Hoffmann Lane Faculty Picnic

We had our faculty party last night at Landa Park and this was one of the few moments Trey had where he wasn't preparing the 50+ hamburgers. We were very fortunate to have some cloud cover and a breeze.
This is what William was doing most of the time we were there. I have never let him get quite this filthy and he loved it, of course! He has a nice coat of white dirt from head to toe in this pic.

This is what I did the whole evening...chase after this fast little boy!

Thanks Kristal for helping out with William while I set out the food!

Trey and Bart in action! I sure do owe Trey BIG.

Fun at Land Park

William and I went to check out the new playground equipment at Landa Park yesterday. They have really done a nice job of making a beautiful, functional playground. We are so lucky to live in New Braunfels.

This is what he is always doing - running.

Fun at Sydney's B-day

Sydney turned 6 last week and we all went to ZDT in Sequin. The girls all tried many new things...some went well and others did not. In the end we all had a great time.
William could have stayed in this motorized car the entire time we were there. He and Kate are enjoying the ride in the picture above.

Night Reading?




I went in to pick William up one morning and found this scene. He must have fished the books through his bed from the basket on the table.

Many Trips to Schlitterbahn 2009


William going down the "big" slide. The first time we came to this park he wouldn't even try the littlest slide. Towards the end of the summer he would go down this slide on his tummy(after watching the big kids do it).

William and I have made about an average of two trips a week to Schlitterbahn this summer. I have enjoyed watching him try new things and meet new people. I have been surprised to see that he is willing to try most things.

William loved to play on this large ship with the slides. I liked it because the water is less that two feet deep and I can easily follow him around the ship. He loved steering the ship with this wheel.


He likes to try to put his body under water and say that he is swimming. Next summer we are going to sign-up for swimming lessons.

Yum, Yum! William had his first taste of angel food cake with whipped cream and strawberries. He kept saying, "I want some more".
William is currently interested in trains, so Trey and I took him to ride the train at Landa Park. He truly seemed to love the experience.

Yes, Trey did manage to squeeze into the small train. We all had a great time.
I put this picture on here to remind me that Trey and William both loved watching the movie Cars this summer. I am still not sure who enjoyed it the most.
