Texan Smiths: Halloween

http://texansmiths.blogspot.com/2011/10/halloween.html

Monday, October 31, 2011. Aidan is Optimus Prime (a Transformer), Brennan is Thomas the Tank Engine, Evan is a puppy dog, minus the ears, and Marian is Draculaura, (from "Monster High", a vegan vampire). On Friday, our neighbors held their annual pumpkin carving/movie night. Evan checking out the screen from the other side. Some of the results:. Ours are the cat on the left, the face in the middle and the spider on the right. Aidan's last minute addition. Looks like you had fun. View my complete profile.

Texan Smiths: August 2011

http://texansmiths.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html

Wednesday, August 31, 2011. Let me take a hiatus from the summer adventures to post back-to-school pictures. Marian, Aidan, and Brennan all started back last week. Brennan is in Pre-K at a different school than last year, so he had a whole new slew of classmates, teachers, school, bus drivers (and bus pick-up time- ugh) to get used to. So far, so good! Aidan started 2nd grade and seems to like his teacher. No complaints from him, except for homework- 20 minutes of reading, gasp! Saturday, August 20, 2011.

Texan Smiths: More Outings

http://texansmiths.blogspot.com/2011/09/more-outings.html

Thursday, September 29, 2011. When Thomas came back into town, we went back to the Botanical Gardens at Clemson with Evan and Brennan, this time taking the the much prettier, shorter route! Cabin from the mid-1800s. Brennan enjoyed peeking in the windows. That afternoon, we took Marian, Aidan, and Brennan to Duke Power for the self-guided tour in their visitors center to learn all about nuclear energy! Aidan really liked it, so we went through a second time, and he asked to go back every day afterwards.

Texan Smiths: April 2011

http://texansmiths.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

Tuesday, April 26, 2011. On the hunt for the Easter baskets. Brennan left alone with loot for too long. Evan loved his hopping bunny. Friends rented out their community pool for the party- the kids loved it! Marian hanging with the gals. What a cheesy smile! Cleaning off the little brother. Monday, April 4, 2011. Bluebonnets aren't having a good season this year since it's been so dry, so we figured we'd just take a picture of our newest Texan by the ones in our backyard. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Texan Smiths: Bluebonnets 2012

http://texansmiths.blogspot.com/2012/04/bluebonnets-2012.html

Monday, April 2, 2012. I know we missed going last year, so I was happy that we were able to catch the tail-end of the bluebonnet season this year. Evan was loving drawing in the sand along the trail with sticks. Never mind the heat. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Seth's Scientific Boo-Boo Prevention. Happy Birthday to you and you and you!

Texan Smiths: January 2011

http://texansmiths.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html

Monday, January 31, 2011. 3rd place in the Tiger Den! So his car goes on to a district race (yet to be determined). Sunday, January 23, 2011. Evan got his first haircut last Sunday, just a trim of the bangs. Then we decided, it ended up making him look like a girl. I think it was just wispy enough to remind us of Marian's hair at this age). And I was afraid if we just cut more around the ears, it would end up looking like a mullett. So we made an appointment and got a full haircut yesterday. Creative Hol...

Texan Smiths: February 2011

http://texansmiths.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

Friday, February 11, 2011. Brennan's field trip to the local rodeo (just the livestock show part really). The turkeys and chickens were a big hit. One of the turkeys was gobbling, but it really sounded more like a dog barking than a gobble. This goat made the rest of us look like fools, shivering in the 30 degree temps. With a little smile on its face! Feeding the steer- aka throwing the hay near its face. Grammy and Evan came along too. Friday, February 4, 2011. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Once Upon A Time: November 2014

http://kara-onceuponatime.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Once Upon A Time. As I tell this story, I am certain it will conjure memories of your own. We all have these moments in time. And, hopefully, they have moved you. Sunday, November 23, 2014. I remember the sky the most the day after we sat in the hallway and sang our hearts out. We had to pull our carpet up, which left us with cement flooring and carpet tack. We had to be careful around those strips of wood for they had tiny nails sticking up. She came without consideration for us. She came without me...
