So, here continues our adventure...
I believe our momentous occassions have ceased for a while. We finished in Florida, Gavin got his "wings", we moved with 2 children to Corpus Christi, TX at the beginning of June. We ENDURED the hot, nasty summer here in tropical, but not-so-paradisical TX. Most recently, our summer ended as Christian began 1st Grade at his new school. And although I don't really enjoy waking up early and being the homework-enforcer...I am thoroughly enjoying my one-on-one time with Shane. Especially because he's not old enough to not want to go on errands ( shopping!!). Now, I fear I might be a little on the bored side. With the house unpacked and pretty much "done"...and our pool completed...my projects are done. Time to make up some new ones (like BLOGGING!!)
Ok- so I think that's my first post.

So happy you joined the blogging world! It has been so nice to catch back up with you- it's as if time never passed. Can't wait to see and read all the things that happen to your super darling family-
all my love-

I'm horrible at looking at people's blogs, but I love seeing you guys (pics). Shane looks OLD. He'll be 2 in dec. right? Christian looks like a kid. Crazy. You have such cute kids guys. I'd like to betroth annika to christian if that's ok. -tara
What a great way to talk to family and friends.
The wedding picture brought back some very fun days with Gavin and Shawna. I loved getting to know the McEwan family, Mark and Pam's children and familes. Pam and all her talents in having a great spread of food and decorating was fun to watch. It made the whole wedding day the most special. The bridle shower that Trish and Tracy gave was awesome, the wedding breakfast, addressing envelopes, etc.
Seeing Christian and Shane in their Dad and Mom's t-shirts (?) made me laugh. Shawna was a lover of fun and giggling a good deal of the time. Shane seems to be like his mother.
I am not too good at getting these things to post, but here goes. Please feel free to give any tips or hints to make this process better.
Love,
MOM, Grandpa and Grammie Staley, Cheryl
I knew Texas was the place for you guys...
Yea! I love being able to keep up with people through blogs! (I think I gave you ours, right?) I'm glad you're doing it! I don't envy you - I never even wanted to visit Texas in my life. Great wedding picture - you guys look PASSIONATE!! :)
Hey Shawna,
You and April are way too tech savy for me. This blog thing is awesome. Your boys are adorable (just like you and Gavin)!! I'm so glad that you found a place to call "home" for a while.

I love your blog! The design and everything is so cute! I will definitely have to get some tips from you. The boys are so cute. It makes me want to see them even more than ever! I am so glad you have a blog now, because I am so much better at checking those than emailing, calling, etc. So keep the postings coming, we love it.
