Dallas Arboretum fun

Oh man, if I only knew my settings on my camera... *SIGH*

I stole a few cute moments, enjoy!

T and my first trip to the Texas State Fair

We hopped on the train and headed to the State Fair

Once we arrived we played all sorts of games...

and a few rides to boot

thanks to Bebah and Grandma we had lots and lots of tickets

we had so much fun with Daddy and Grandma....

Grandma even got in some trouble!!  Tee, hee, hee

Thanks for the fun everyone!

Bad Mommy and her hard dilemma

So, I made the decision a while back to not keep all of Tristan's homework and artwork.  It's sad but I have a small house with limited storage.

Every Monday we take his work from his bag and then some makes it ON the fridge the rest we discuss, praise him on and then I secretly toss in the trash.  *SIGH* I feel SO bad BUT I don't want to be a pack rat.

So to capture the moment, I save some of the stuff here - so we'll have it forever vs. keeping boxes of stuff I most likely will never look through.

A little Moses and the burning bush

Look at all of those stars!

Way to go T!

So, while I feel bad, this at least feels like a step in the right direction...

Preserving some memories so I/we will have them forever.

**PS - he read his first few words at dinner the other night.  AWESOME!!!!
