Rice Football

For my family and Rice friends - no we don't just dress the girls up in Aggie gear (although that stuff is a lot easier to find).

Here is Taylor in her Rice shirt for today's game.  Not that it helped the score.

Taylor's new ride

Today while Allison and Kevin went for a swim Taylor and I headed to Kroger for down groceries.  Taylor had her first ride in the shopping cart without her car seat.  She had fun looking at everything and sitting up.  She's always so happy, it's so much fun to watch her see new things.

Our big day

Allison and Taylor got to see the attractions at Grapevine Mills today.  We started with the aquarium, then food court lunch with carousel ride.  Next up Lego land and finishing the day with a bounce thing.

Summer school

Yesterday was the last day of summer school.  They had a performance and all the kids got on stage and sang half a dozen songs.  Allison had been practicing really hard at home but was just exhausted after having VBS every evening.  She did ok, but spent half the time sitting down.  

Allison's wearing a white shirt and teal skirt - the stage lighting washed the kids out for pictures.
