25 Random Photos

A couple of days ago I did a blog post on my 25 Random Things and decided while doing that, that it would be fun to make a post with 25 Random Pictures.  So I went on to my computer and just selected some pictures.  They are in no order and I will tell you a little about each one.  Feel free to comment.  I LOVE GETTING FEEDBACK.  I lets me know someone besides Chris and myself reads this blog!


2001-2003-15.jpg



First up is Jordan.  I believe this was taken the day after he was born.  According to the time stamp, it would be 10 minutes short or 24 hours old.  I love looking at his pictures and seeing how he's changed.....Can't believe its been six and a half years!

2001-2003-05.jpg



This would be me, the night before Jordan was born.  I was exactly 36 weeks pregnant.  Little did we know how our lives would change a few short hours later! This is also one of the few photos I have of my pregnant self.

I honstly don't know what to say about this photo.  This is Jordan....before his first birthday.  Notice the spit up on his shirt...I am famous for taking pictues with stuff all over his clothes or snot all over his face!


Christmas_06-05.jpg


Jordan is in this group somehwere.  This is his pre-k chior doing a performance at FBC Colleyville. Due to hte poor quality (my old camera sucked) I think Jordan is the 4th person on the second row, behind the cute girl in the red dress.



GET OUT OF MY WAY!


For his fifth birthday Jordan got a 4-wheeler which he named "Shaggy".  At our old house, he had a large area t oride.  HE LOVED IT! I don't really know why he looks so mad in this pictures.  It is either, A. he just got in trouble or B. someone was in his way while he was trying to drive.

ok, so I told you these pictures were random.  This is Todd and Shelly's TV.  Sadly, it looks like we were warching Maury. This was back in the day when we were all living on campus at SWBTS.  At least once a week we would get together and hang out...the TV was almost always on but we never really watched it! I think I took this picture becaue I like the TV


Halloween_07-47.jpg


Our little Police Man. Halloween 07! This costume was so cool.  It came with jacket, hat, ticket book, batdge, and handcuffs.


SWBTS_06-07-04.jpg


This is the main building on the campus of SWBTS (Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary) We lived on campus for a year and I took 3 semesters of classes.  Its really is a beautiful campus!


march_snow_07-03.jpg


I love this picture! This was taken at SWBTS in MARCH 2007! We don't get to see much snow here in North Texas so this was a welcomed treat.  Even if winter was over! I also thought the "children at play" made this picture really cool.



SWBTS_100_Birthday-11.jpg


Yet another SWBTS picture.  We were fortunate enough to be students during the 100 year anniversary of hte school.  In celebration they had a huge BBQ and concert.  This is the main building all decked out for the concert.  It transitionted into many colors throughout the night.


Zoo_Pics_0308-01.jpg


Last year for Spring break, we took a day trip to the Fort Worth Zoo.  These Flamingos were so pretty.  When I think flamingo, I think pale pink.  These were a brilliant orange-pink.  They were so pretty!


Easter_08-03.jpg


This is my very handsome little man, Easter of 2008.  he is just a few months short of his sixth birthday.


I hope I'm not boring you! We are about halfway done!


Flack_07-2.jpg


I would like to introduce you to my Brother-in-law Chad and my very handsome nephew Noah.  I would love to be doing exactly what they are doing right about now!


Misc_07-1Q08-08.jpg


I so don't like looking at pictures of myself.   This was taken at the temporary location for Founder's Plaza, DFW airport.


Moving_Day_2008-09.jpg


While driving down I-30 towards Fort Worth, TX I decided to take some pictures of the sky-line.  It may not be as impressive as Dallas but I will take Fort Worth any day!


Moving_Day_2008-13.jpg


Moving into our current apartment, the movers had to bring in the couches via the patio door.  The movers were so funny! Jordan had a great time helping.  I mean, getting in the way!

Our new apartment came with a great swimming pool.  Perfect for doing Cannon Balls! It took Jordan a while to get up the nerve to jump, but then, he was unstopable!


Grandma_030708-13.jpg


This picture is very special to me.  It was taken in Dec. 2002.  It is one of the few pictures of have with my Grandma, whom we lost a year ago.  She loved her husband, kids, grand kids, and great grand kids more than anything!


Grandma_030708-06.jpg


WOW! This is a blast from the past! High School graduation day. May 2001.  I was blessed to have all my family there.  2 sets of Grandparents, my parents, my Aunt Bonnie, and both my Brothers! In this pictures is both my Grandpas, My Grandma, My mom and Dad, my oldest Brother, and of course me in the gorgeous blue gown.


Dads_pics_08-23.jpg


Jordan and my Daddy playing at Mills Park in Bryant, Ar. Was it spinning to fast Dad? You look scared!


Pumpkin_Patch_08-08.jpg


Every year we go to the pumpkin patch in Colleyville, TX this is one of the child favorites.  A house made out of hay!

Just a couple of months ago, DFW airport opened up the new and improved Founder's Plaza.  This is one of the statues. Founder's Plaza is located on the North side of DFW airport.  If you are ever in the area it a great place to visit for some FREE family fun!

For Christmas, Granny and Grandpa (my parents) got Jordan a LEGO airplane.  Chris and J had so much fun putting it together.   This is the finished product.

This is me with all my Tiger Cubs! They were receiving their first award.  I have had a blast being their leader and I'm looking forward to watching these seven boys grow up into men!


AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST!


Jons_graduation_2004-13.jpg


My brother Jon's college graduation from the University of Arkansas.  This is Dad and Mom enjoying the day with their first and at this time only grandchild.  Jordan loved Granny's glasses! J would have been about 2 in this picture!


OK...so there you have it.  I hope I didn't bore you to death. I enjoyed looking at the pictures and remember whet was going on at that moment in time.  Thanks for reading and I look forward to your comments.

  1. Take a deep breath and prepare yourself - for my long comment.

    First up - He was a DOLL when he was a baby. Seriously, not to sound rude but a lot of babies don't look that cute that soon after they are born. Aww!

    Secondly, I didn't even notice the spit up because I was too busy laughing. Lil guy looks like he's giving you a thumbs up!

    I always wanted a fourwheeler when I was little; The police man suit is definitely better than the typical outfits for halloween; I wish snow was a rare occurance here.

    I'm sorry to hear about your Grandma. Pictures like that really are precious.

    And lastly... pumkin patches can't be beat, we have one here that I STILL go to.

  2. Your version of the 25 Things meme but with photos instead is a GREAT idea and WAY more interesting than the regular 25 things, great idea! I enjoyed all your pictures. :-)
