One last thing.....I am now on a diet and just wanted everyone to see the "before" photo !! I have hired a personal trainer to drop the pounds and this photo was taken of "me" right after my first workout and as you can tell I have a long way to go....excuse the "bikini" underwear but they make me feel sexy and the shoes help me to look taller.....wow! Imagine how I will look when that mid section is a firm six pack....I will keep you posted with updated pics if you like?? Take care all and wish me luck !!

Jonathan Houston - Baseball

Jonathan had a great year as a freshman at Arkansas Tech University this year. Started as a freshman, batted .339 , 3 homeruns and was named to the Gulf South Conference 1st team All-Conference.....He has decided to transfer and play one year of junior college baseball. He was offered a full baseball scholarship to Northeast Texas Community College in Mt. Pleasant, Texas adn will play there next year. For you Texas family members (thats most of you!!) he will be playing in your neck of the woods some...Alvin Community College, Blinn Community College, Angelina, Wharton, San Jacinto, etc......I will get his schedule on here as soon as it comes out . The hope is that he will have a good year and be recruited to a Division I school like, Arkansas, Texas, A&M, Oklahoma, Sam Houston ,etc....Lets keep our fingers crossed......enough bragging, just wanted you to know.....

BLOG ROOKIE!

Well, I am certainly am rookie at this blogging! Before today, I was just simply a blog "lurker" , meaning of course that I just looked at other folks blogs, laughed at the everyday things they would post. So . . . . a "lurker" no more!

These pictures were taken at Easter. We will have to get Leeland and Morgan to add a post and get us some more updated photos of them. We are excited about Laura's graduation coming up this weekend. Two down and one to go! I think there will be a raise about September! WooHoo!

Okay, Mike and I have done our part. It's time for the rest of the extended family to join in. Catch us up to date, post a smile. If you don't I will be forced to show you a picture of my new cell phone (which IS extremely cute, by the way)!
