San Antonio!!!














These two faces say it all. Our get-a-way to San Antonio was great. Notre Dame always starts their baseball season in the warmer states (for obvious reasons), and every year they host the Irish Classic in San Antonio...so obviously every year, being that we are die-hard Domer's, we spend a long weekend in San Antonio as well. This year we brought Garrett and Brooks. (as grown adults we actually needed an excuse to go to Sea World, and our boys provided just that)














Brooks enjoyed seeing many exotic animals while at Sea World, but he LOVED feeding the dolphins. Jenn had to bear hug him to keep him from entering the tank & joining flipper for a swim.














...and most importantly...Brooks' very 1st baseball game, a 13-1 Notre Dame victory. What better team to watch for your 1st baseball game than God's team, right? Go Irish!

First Snow as Mckinnians!




...don't know if Mckinney residents are "Mckinnians" or not, but that's the most logical sounding to me. This was also the first time Brooks has seen snow, and he didn't seem overly awed or impressed. Also, I've received some smack (from more than one of you, after hearing my complaining) about now living in a practically EMPTY 3600 sq ft house, and having most of our unpacked stuff in the garage. My reward for such stupidity?...an hour worth of scraping snow and ice off of Jenn's and my vehicles in the freezing cold. Oh well, it would've been nicer around Christmas, but the snow made the trees and bushes very pretty for a day anyway.
