infatuation

Trains. Lilly can't get enough. First thing out of her mouth in the morning is "choo choo"....she does manage to hear the train that both Cory and I have spent months ignoring. Over the weekend, we passed the railroad tracks just before the gates went down, so we pulled over on a side street to watch. The engineer gave us a toot toot and a big wave. Heaven.

The magic of You Tube has brought all the excitement right to us! Yay for train fanatics that videotape trains!

Email me and I'll send you the video since it won't upload correctly here....

Polly's visit--beach!

We continued the fun down on the beach in Surfside. Team C packed up the car with a picnic lunch and we headed down to enjoy a chilly morning on the sand. We saw some dolphins swimming by the breakwater as well as many little fish that some kids were using for bait. Lilly was very excited. It was warm enough later on to get our toes wet after lunch.

Polly's visit--strawberry picking

Polly came to visit for the weekend--what fun we had! We headed up to Magnolia, about an hour away, to pick strawberries at a farm up there. A rare departure from inside the loop for Team Clechenko! Lilly had a ball--I am quite sure that no strawberry she picked made it into the box.


springtime in Texas wouldn't be right if there weren't bluebonnets!
