Eagle Mountain Park

To celebrate Labor Day, the kids and I decided to hike the trails at Eagle Mountain Park. The afternoon started off with a nice picnic with a special guest. This little buck decided to hang out for a while while kids petted him. Anytime Jake got close to him, he tried to rub his antlers against Jake.

After disinfecting every one's hands, we began our trek to the lake. The way there wasn't too bad. It got warm and the kids wanted to cool off in the lake. The trip back to the car was the most difficult. Sofia kept asking if we were almost there. She informed me that it was a "horrible idea" and I should never bring her back there again.

Besides Sofia's lack of enthusiasm, we had a good workout and it was nice to be outdoors. The kids took a little dip in the lake and they got to pet a real deer. All in all, it was a good day.

Super September

This weekend we celebrated Sofia's 4th birthday. We went to Trinity Park in Fort Worth and rode the minature train. Sofia and the kids loved the train. Sofia was very excited about Zoey (Nancy's new puppy) joining us. She had a great day.

The house is coming along. It looks like they should be finished sometime this month. The outside is almost complete. Hopefully, by the end of next month we will be in the new house.

Our House 3.3

Here we are again with out me keeping up with the weekly updates. I am having a hard time finding the motivation to post these to Facebook and to our Blog. When we last left you with pictures the Second Floor was framed. Well that was 3 entire weeks ago. The roof is on, electrical, HVAC, and Plumbing is roughed in; insulation up; second floor completely sheet rocked; and 2/3 of the brick is up. I did not want to post all of the pictures taken in the last three week, but here are the highlights this week.
