Badds Fam

We are taking advantage of Shells, Aaron and Jewell being home for a week. :) It's been way too long since we've been able to hang out with the Baddeley's. Sophia and Jewell actually look at each other now. It's just gonna get more fun!

Monday night we joined some friends at an indoor go kart track... I say go kart, but it was really fast little cars with no walls. Way too fast for my taste, but Jared enjoyed himself!

Thanks Watsons!

Some of the pro-drivers.

I think they really thought they were professional drivers! All suited up and ready to race!

Wacko Waco!

Ashleigh is officially Baylor Bound! I'm just so excited for her... and maybe a little jealous. Mom, Ash, Sophia and I got to go check out the campus and stay at the fabulous Swartz hotel! We had such a great time and are so thankful to Lesley and her family for allowing us to stay in their home. I loved getting to know Brett aka Willy Wonka. Bella Buns is all grown up and Rowan is only nine days younger than Sophia and a great cuddler. The kids had so much fun together. It's crazy to think that 10 years ago Lesley and I lived in Russell as freshman.

Who knew we'd be here one day!

Sophia on campus. It has changed so much in five years!

New buildings everywhere, but still so beautiful.
You just never know...

Sic 'Em Smash!!! I love you!!

Easter 2009

First Annual Bunny Badminton Tournament... I totally made up that spelling... I have no idea. Gigi was teamed up with Jared and they advanced all the way to finals. She even beat out her other two son-in-laws. Amazing. It ended up being Jonny and CJs year though. Congrats boys!

Thanks for the Easter Prizes!

Thank you for the Easter box Grandma and Grandpa Doe! Sophia is already working on her tee ball skills with the carrot bat. Gotta get Grandpa to give her some lessons. :) She has been reading the books and carrying around her bunny since she opened it!

Not a fan of the Easter Bunny

Karie and I got the girls matching Easter outfits and took them to see the Easter Bunny Monday. Sophia loved the bunny from far away but dug into my skin and screamed like she's never screamed before when we got close. There's always next year... maybe! We did manage to get some pictures of her with all the big eggs AROUND the bunny.

She was getting very conidtioned to saying "Cheese" as you can see in the video. She also tries her hand at being muscle woman...

She was most interested in running around and playing in the mall.

Spring Break- Banff

We had an amzing opportunity to travel with some of our best friends to Banff Canada for Spring break. We left the morning after the wedding so it was hectic getting out of town, but it was sooo worth it! We all had a blast. It snowed almost every day we were there. We ice skated, went sledding, the boys went skiing while us girls enjoyed the spa and Banff Springs Hotel... incredible! We even met a new friend, Holey. This "doe" would come up to the condo everyday. She was so used to people, it was so fun! There's another link to the right if you want to see more!

Here are all the Does... :)

A little too close!
Ice Skating in the Canadian Rockies... beautiful!
