Codacious and Mom being silly

It's not often that my 16 year old wants to "hang" with his mother so I decided to post these to prove that he likes me ....sometimes!

He wanted to take a photo of us "flexing" our muscles (course I don't have any) thus...these pics!

I love him so so so so much!! A Junior in High School....Ahhhhhh....scary!

Still my baby though! Love you CG!!

The Morning After!!


The morning after, me and my cousin Shelly headed for the Mall to do some much needed shopping. After spending the past 28 hours with 9 high school girls and 7 high school guys, we needed a BREAK!! We headed off with Dalton, Shelby and Amanda and went shopping!





Dalton was so funny! We made our stop at Victorias Secret and he of course had to be a "BOY"!!



Then off to Hollister we went and me and Ms. Shelby had to act a little goofy!! Amandas boyfriend Andy showed up to hang out with us too!

Ended on a good day! I bought lots of goodies at Sephora (one of my favorites) and Shelby got lots of new clothes!! All in all...we had a great weekend!! Can't wait to do it again!

Fun night with "The Gang"


We had the best time Saturday night!! A bunch of Keeli's girl/guy friends came over and we all hung out and ........well...lets just say "kids will be kids"!! Good clean fun!!! The picture above is the "morning after". All 9 of the girls stayed the night and had pancakes and sausage the next morning! What a great group of kids. Mrs. Dixon had sooooo much fun! Love you all!




All the girls wore "silly socks" and skull bandannas with black out under their eyes. Zach had to "strike his pose" in this picture!! We are going to patten it so NO ONE steals it! HA! Love it! As for the triplets!! Thank goodness for great parents! (he he)...also...is that Barnetts Tahoe in the back I see???

My Little Hunter



















This weekend was "Youth Hunt" weekend. Johnnie and Triston headed out on Friday afternoon to Rock Springs Texas with a couple of other men and thier sons to hunt. Triston shot this 8 point buck (his first of the season) and we are so proud!!

Keeli's Cheer Squad..."THE BLAZE"




On Saturday, Keelis comp cheer squad cheered at Willis High school for their Fall Festival. Although these pictures didn't come out very clear, I wanted to post them. They performed AWESOME!! I really like the picture of Keeli doing her heel stretch in this stunt!! We are getting pumped up for the November 3rd competition in Galveston at Moody Gardens. This will be our first competition of the year. GO SPIRIT EXPLOSION.....THE BLAZE!!

Conroe VS College Park


The Conroe Tigers played College Park. It was a close game, unfortunately, the Tigers walked away loosing thier first game of the season. Last minute in the game, College Park through a long pass for a touch down. The score ending in 24-21.







I loved this picture of the cheerleaders holding "D" and a "Fence". We played awesome defense that night!!!
Next week we are off to play Oakridge. GO CONROE TIGERS!!!!!!

Another mishap at the Dixons

On Monday, my accident prone son Dalton, was stabbed in the back of the head 4 times with a pencil and then in the eye with that same pencil. We have spent 3 days at the Pediatrician and Optomologist. It's Thursday and Dalton is doing much better. We are really fortunate that there is no permanent damage to the eye. Thank the Lord!

Now it's just going through all the "red tape" with the school and the other childs parents. Pray for us!!

I am not going to post pictures because it's even more gross than the stitches!!

The Woodlands WHO?? GO CONROE!! WE WON!!




Tonight, the Tigers beat the Highlanders!!

35-14 !! GO CONROE TIGERS!!!!!!


What an awesome game!! Tonight the Conroe Tigers played thier biggest rivals The Woodlands Highlanders. It is tradition for the Conroe fans to wear overalls to this particular game...so I went out and bought the girls some overalls and we decorated them with lots of SPIRIT!! I think the meaning is that The Woodlands believe that we are a bunch of "country hicks". Well...us "country hicks" showed the "Highlanders" how to play football tonight!! Whoo Hoooo!!



We had such a great time doing this!! Aren't they toooooooo cute!!




Keeli & Amanda had such a good time helping me and was very excited to wear their new duds to the game!!






They both looked so cute!!





So heres to the TIGERS!!!!! WE LOVE YOU CONROE !!
