Monday, April 28, 2008. Benefit performance for Nora. Yesterday, the Design in Motion dance studio in Crofton, where Nora has dance lessons, put on a benefit performance for Nora.

Here's Pirate Nora in her dance costume. This is Nora with Jeanne Mattis, owner of Design in Motion dance studio, Crofton, MD. Labels: Noras dance performance. If you ...

The Hoopes Family: December 2008
http://accordingtohoopes.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 20, 2008. How we spent a Christmas gift. I promptly signed up for the day. When I got home, proud of my accomplishments, I told Tracy what I had done. She then, gently, reminded me that she and the other two girls had a previous engagement and that we would have to cancel the missionaries meal. I told her not to worry, and that Nora and I would go ahead and entertain. Monday, December 8, 2008. Our night of caroling at the River Walk. Sunday, December 7, 2008. I have uploaded a couple o...

The Hoopes Family
http://accordingtohoopes.blogspot.com/2010/08/alot-of-friends-and-family-have-been.html
Thursday, August 19, 2010. Alot of friends and family have been asking for some more pictures, so I decided to upload a few more to the family blog. Cami is now just over 2 wks old. She is up to 9# now and growing everyday. Her older sisters are still very much in love with her and will fight over who gets to hold the little munchkin. The pictures above are of Nora and Cami after a bath. Nora likes to take baths with the baby. The last picture is of Cami at 2 wks. August 22, 2010 at 10:20 AM.

The Hoopes Family: Our Make A Wish trip to Florida
http://accordingtohoopes.blogspot.com/2009/09/our-make-wish-trip-to-disney-world.html
Saturday, September 26, 2009. Our Make A Wish trip to Florida. Our wish trip started with a send off party at Chick-Fil-A. Nora told the wish grantors that she liked Chick-Fil-A, so that's where we partied! We had the Asay family there with us playing games, eating chicken sandwiches and just relaxing. We had a great time there. What a fun trip. Looks like you guys had a ton of fun. Did you go to Gatorland? We did that when we were there years ago. September 28, 2009 at 8:42 AM. Ike and Jen Rogers.

The Hoopes Family: The fishing trip
http://accordingtohoopes.blogspot.com/2009/05/fishing-trip.html
Thursday, May 28, 2009. We are trying to be involved with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society here in TX. This month, they had a picnic dinner at a little pond. The activities there included fishing, eating and pony rides. Nora and Halee enjoyed the rides while McKayela enjoyed the fishing. She caught 3 crappie and was totally excited about doing it. She wasn't so happy to bait her hook with the worms or taking the fish off the hook, but that's what dad is for, right? I can't believe you updated your blog!

The Hoopes Family: Our trip to AZ - October 2009
http://accordingtohoopes.blogspot.com/2009/10/our-trip-to-az-october-2009.html
Wednesday, October 28, 2009. Our trip to AZ - October 2009. Our Trip to AZ started with a surprise for Tracy. She celebrated her birthday before we went home but no one called her. A few days later when one of her sisters called, I razzed her about not calling. So, when we got home, Tracy had this lovely poster waiting for her. I'm sure she loved it. I grabbed the shovel, got on the top step of my in-laws porch and with a swift downward thrust, I chopped the head off the slithering beast. The End. Here's...

The Hoopes Family: August 2008
http://accordingtohoopes.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 16, 2008. Hannah Monatana's and San Antonio. Our girls have really taken an interest in Hannah Monatana. They liked her before but after we moved here to San Antonio, they have become almost obsessed with her. We have listened to the music all hours of the day and night. We watched the 3-D movie on Disney Channel. The girls have T-shirts with her image. Is there no stopping the craze? We had a good time there today. I am happy that Tracy was crazy enough to marry me 13 yrs ago.

The Hoopes Family: January 2009
http://accordingtohoopes.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 4, 2009. Our Christmas and New Year. Our Christmas was a little different than most we have had since joining the military. We usually go to AZ and spend it there with both my family and Tracy's family. We decided, for the second time in our married life, to stay put for the holidays. It seems like an easy decision, but it wasn't. We love going home and being with family! New Years Eve was pretty low-key. We spent the evening at a pizza joint followed by board games at our house.
