The adventures of Ian

 

 

Holton's favorite Texas Rangers player is without a doubt Ian Kinsler.  Holton went to a couple games this year (we'll skip over how the Rangers season ended).  Whenever Kinsler is up to bat, Holton will scream "Go Ian!  Go Ian!" 

Recently my Dad was heading back for another two weeks down in Columbia when he spotted an Ian Kinsler doll at the airport.  Isn't last minute airport shopping the best? 

Knowing Holton's love for Ian, my Dad snagged up the doll and kept him with him for a couple weeks in Columbia.  Dad decided to document all of Ian's adventures. 

Ian and the iguanas.  There are 3 - see them? 

Then Dad took around one of their coal mines to let him play on the huge machines (note that I don't know the fancy terminology for these things - sorry Dad!).

 

 

Then Adam and my Dad headed off to Colorado for a week to work on all things hunting cabin, deer stand, blah, blah.  Ian seemed to really enjoy himself!

 

Ian caught a mouse....gross!

Holton was very appreciative and loved seeing all the pics of Ian.  And I'm happy to report that Ian is safe and home with us now.  Holton sleeps with him every night! 

Weston turned two!!

It's so hard to believe that our little Weston Kirk turned two......way back on September 22nd.  I promise y'all I'm going to get in gear with this blog.

 

We went to Houston the weekend of Weston's party for our niece's wedding.  Glynna caught the bouquet at our wedding 12 years ago. Yes, this realization definitely makes us feel old! 

 

 

Weston had a great time at the rehearsal dinner! 

 

 

Getting ready for the wedding!  Don't pay any attention to Weston's hand placement.

The day after the wedding, family and friends gathered at Uncle Glyn and Aunt Karen's house to have brunch with the bride and groom. And.....they were sweet enough to get a cake for Weston.  It was a big hit! 

And what is is a birthday without a few presents. 

 Happy late Birthday, Weston.  We love you so much!!  We'll end this post with a typical picture of rambunctious, ornery Weston....holding a jug of beer....sans clothes.
