Helping Daddy in the yard

It's January and time to rake the leaves up. It was a nice day to be outside, not too cold at all. Colton had a great time helping scoop the leaves up and put them in the bag. 

Our neighbor Ms. Amy came out with her two dogs, Bouncer & Poodle. Colton loves them and loves walking them around. Here he is walking Poodle, or maybe she is walking him! :) 

Checking out the big pile of leaves.

Happy New Year!! Welcome 2011!!

For New Year's we went to Rockport to be with the siblings and cousins. Lanny & Holly have a house down there and Toby & Stacy have one (Stacy's mom's house). It's so nice to have a place to stay to get away and have lots of fun and make lots of memories! The kids had a blast, big boys  had fun too with the sparklers. They kids had a great time playing and hanging out while us older ones watched and hung out. Always a good time when it is the 6 siblings and the kiddos!
