NCAA Women's Regionals

My awesome bosses got tickets to the tournament and were nice enough to let me have 2. So Ri and I drove down last night and went to the game, Aunt Leia went with us. Tennessee vs Texas A&M. It was a great game!!! Candace Parker got hurt in the first half and the game was on!!! Riley was her usual no smiling picture taking self but she really did have fun.

Aunt Leia and Ri before the game. Leia went and got us shirts. She was a Vol and we were the Aggies.....Gig'em!!!! Whatever that means??

Candace Parker taken from the court after her injury. She is an amazing player!!! Never seen anything like her. Unstoppable even with what looked like a dislocated shoulder.

Riley studying the art of basketball. Getting prepared for her future.

Ok so maybe she was studying the mascot. She loved the dog. "Where go?" she would say anytime he would leave her sight. I hope that's not the future I have to look forward to when I watch her at ball games???!!!

Here we are cheering on the Aggies!!! See she did have a good time. Aunt Leia of course made her a coordinating bow.

The final score.

Coach Summit and Candace Parker in post game interviews. Can you tell who we came to watch. She really was amazing!!!

Thanks again to Alan and Rita for the awesome tickets!!!!!

PRESENTING NATHAN ALLEN MCDANIEL

Well he has arrived!!!! And precious is he. If you haven't checked Leia's blog yet I'll give you ome of the details. Nater Tater was born March 28, 2008 at 10:00 pm he weighed 7 lbs 2 oz. and was 19 1/2 inches long. Riley and I just missed getting to see him born but Leia and Mom said Lori was a real champ. Here are few pics from the hospital.

Can't ever give too many baby kisses!!!

Eyes wide open. He likes to look at his Aunt Lacy.

I can't let Riley be the only binkie baby!!!

Gigi and Nater.

Riley loves her new cousin. She gets pretty mad when you take him away from her.

Bringing home baby was tough on Dad and Cousin Riley.

Doesn't look like Nate loves Riley as much as she loves him.

Grammy and her Grandbabies. An attempt at it anyway.

Can you believe we got them all to sit for a second!!! What a bunch!!! Won't they have sooo much fun.

We are so happy to have Nater Tater here. Riley and I can't wait to see him again and see how much he has changed. We love him so much already!!! Congratulations Lori and Scott you made a precious baby!!!!

Yes I'm blogging AGAIN!!!

Hard to believe but for 2 days in a row the weather in Woodward was windless!!!! I decided to take Riley out to Boiling Springs, we hardly ever go out there seeing as how close we live to Crystal Beach but it was sooo nice and Gregg is in Chichasha with the baseball team so we didn't have anything to get home to so I decided to go on out for awhile. It has everything Riley loves.... water and dirt!!! And for those of you that have never seen her smile in a picture, which is a lot of you, I finally got a few smiles!!!

She probably would have climbed on this rock all day if I would have let her. She loves chairs or anything she can sit on.

She loves the dirt and she loves to throw it!! No Mother I didn't spank her for it, almost when she tried to throw it at me.

Finally a smile!!!!

Throwing dirt in the water.

She wanted in soooo bad.

So I let her, yes in that dirty water. She was a mess by the time we got home.
