Weekend Getaway

This last weekend we got to go to Houston and spend it with the Williams. Its nice having somewhere to go when this town feels just a little small. The girls are also great entertainers who made certain we had a great time. Needless to say it was a great weekend.

Peyton had fun putting on Eric's boots. While we were only there for a few days she probably stepped into his shoes at least a dozen times. She wasn't able to go very far but that never stopped her from trying.

Izzie had a lot of fun this weekend by getting to spend it all outside, something she hasn't done since we got here. She actually had a lot of fun with the girls and after a while wasn't even afraid of them which is another first!
Halli had fun becoming all differnt types of animals. Her cats definately love her as much as she loves them.

So several months ago there was a contest going on within the "Eye World." All you had to do to enter was submit a photo that showed your city. When I heard this I immediately thought of this picture I had taken of Eric up in Skagway. I submitted and then almost instantaniously forgot about it. This afternoon however I received a package in the mail with the new calendar of all the winning photos. Much to my surprise and delight was Eric's picture!

This is the front of the calendar with all the winning photos. As you can see lots of them were very artistic and very good.

My very own, MR. OCTOBER!!!
As you can also see, mine would be a little lacking artistically but definately meets the criteria. Do you think they questioned the fact that I noted I'm from Texas but somehow there is snow in the backround with lots of Alaskan flags? Hmm, oh well. Also the prise isn't only that I get my name in the calendar but that I will also receive a brand new camera. Yeah, I'm excited!
