Luke and Maddie's Bonding time!

On Saturday Maddie and I took and hour long, and very tiring bike ride up many painful and long hills. And at the very end of our final hill we both felt a little dizzy so we rode down all the hills slowly back home. Then we each took showers in different bathrooms, cooled down in ice cold water. Maddie felt better but I still had that yucky sick feeling in my stomach so I took a swig of good ole' Pepto Bismal and slept for about 2 hours. During that time Luke and Maddie had some good times preparing the USC game. (Very exciting for our family.) And for all you Texans, GO USC! and WHO'S NUMBER ONE AGAIN????? YEAH I THOUGHT SO... USC!!!!!!!!! Anyways they made a whole field and actually played with some stuffed animals. Heres the real action!
Luke was the USC bear and Maddie's was supposed to be the Ohio State bear.
And the amazing commentators with the score board.
GO USC!
And here I am laying between the couch trying to recover with a few hours of sleep! I feel much better now though!

GO WOLVES!

Last Friday we took a trip down to Lake Travis High School to watch the Timber wolves hopefully kick some booty! In the end they didn't, a pretty close game, but Lake Travis High School is number 1 in the state so it was OK to lose to them.:) This was my first real high school football game to actually go to. It was definitely pretty crazy to see all of these crazy, painted, decked out, and excited high schoolers. Much better then the mini sized middle school games I'm used to! Me and Maddie STANDING, (due to extreme crowding!) With the band practicing in front of us:) That really us feel team spirit!
As you can see Chase let Luke get comfortable by giving him a fabulous view of the game that I was wanting too. But I wish we had a picture of the stands, literally NO room anywhere around. Unless we dare go over to the other team's side.
Isn't that a cute picture, the reason Luke and I have blue and red lips is because we were enjoying Ring Pops the whole time. Minus Mike and Shauna this is everyone that was there.

I hope we get to experience another awesome football game where the Timber wolves win!

Beauty and the Beast

On Thursday night I went to Zilker Park with Maddie, Shauna, and some others from church to see Beauty and the Beast. Every year Austin puts on an amazing play for everyone. Maddie and I came prepared for some serious bordem so we brought, games, food, cards, and more. But both of us were really shcoked by how good it was. A few times we got out a game and without even thinking about it, put it away and kept whatching.



It looks like we are sitting pretty far, but that is just what the camera does to the view. Shauna actually drove all the way down earlier just to lay down blankets for us. We were pretty darn lucky because it was CRAZY crowded there. The first picture shows how many people were behind us when we got there. The second shows how close we were to the stage and set itself.
Doesn't this picture show how perfect Gaston is for the part. Shauna took the picture right as Maddie and I were putting our hands down. But what can you do, right? I think we were pretty brave to take this somewhat embarrassing picture with hundreds of people watching our picture be taken.



Here is our final picture with the fabulous picture with Belle! She was so pretty in real life even though we all looked a little stunned or something right here. I guess it was the flash. But anyways, we were happy we got a picture with her and that's all that counts!
Here are Maddie and I at the beginning of the show. Sorry all of these pictures are totally out of order:)



And the final picture is of Sister Johnson, Shauna, and the a few of the Laurels. (This was an activity of theres but Maddie and I came along for fun.)


OK believe it or not, I think I am actually DONE with this post. Hope you enjoyed:)

Lake Austin

This past week we went on the lake Friday night and Saturday morning! The water was "refreshing" as we all like to say... but i got in and was completly swimming. Here are the pics from Friday night. Saturday morning I won't put pictures of because it was all Allie's friends and not really me or Maddie. FRIDAY NIGHT-Me and Maddie made sure to get our tan going on this one cause we are both pretty pale:)This was so fun. We put a surfing rope out and Chase was in the front holding onto the rope, Maddie was next holding onto Chase's life jacket, I was hanging onto Maddie's, and just for a minute or so my mom was on as well. It looks like we are going very slow... which we are. But it is a lot harder than it seems because the water is pushing so hard it you when you are going against it.Allie and my mom smiling for the camera. (both in cute swimsuits+cute sunglasses!) Chase is getting ready to throw Luke into the water right here.

OK so there was this weird goose/swan thing that just swam right at us and every time we would yell something like "WAHHH!" (to sound like a goose.) It would quietly go, "Mee-hoo" It was sooooooo funny.
