Two Years Old








Devin enjoyed his birthday party celebrating with his cousins! Nana made a brisket, beans, potato salad and pico it was so delicious! And of course, ice cream cake from Marble Slab! Devin is so funny! Ma bought him some trick candles and he was a little confused! He would blow out the candles, look away and to his surprise the candles were relit. He received a tee ball set and loves it!! However,  we have to say "Batter, Batter Swing" before he actually swings the bat! Aunt Mary said I need to record it and play it for him so that he can entertain himself. What a great idea!! I must say he can hit the ball pretty good. The last picture shows exactly what happens when you turn 2 years old.....notice the gum :}

Happy Birthday, Devin!!


Two years ago, we were blessed with Devin Durant Lancaster and life hasn't been the same!!! It's hard to fathom how fast time flies. It seems like yesterday that I was pregnant and we were talking about moving to Bahrain. We moved to Bahrain when Devin was six months. It's been a great adventure but it's sad that we'll have to remind Devin of all of them. We'll have so many to share. I'm so proud to share that he's doing such a great job riding in his car seat. For those of you that have taken a rode trip with him know that he does NOT like the car seat......: ( If you ask him how old he is he'll tell you "two years old" and he'll show you how he's going to blow out his birthday candles. Happy Birthday to you! I Love You so Very Much!!  

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Ryan Mcafee

















It's GREAT to be home!! We enjoyed a wonderful weekend celebrating Raquel & Ryans beautiful wedding ceremony in Austin, Texas. We took a rode trip with the Cruz Family and stopped at the Blue Bell Ice Cream Factory in Brenham.  For those of you that have tried Blue Bell Ice cream know that it's the best ice cream EVER!! YUMMO!! After our tour we headed to Austin, Texas. We stayed at the Renaissance Hotel and enjoyed some great Italian food! Afterwards, the kids went swimming! Saturday we enjoyed Raquel & Ryans BEAUTIFUL wedding! Raquel is my first cousin from my Dad's side. It was so good to visit with Family. I sure do miss that :( Devin had so much fun!! He slept during the ceremony but woke up during the reception. When he woke up he had to focus to see where he was and headed straight to the dance floor. He danced the night away. Cody was such a good sport. He danced with Raquel during the dollar dance and did a great job!  Thanks to Ma & Nana for all the help and making it an enjoyable weekend! Thank You so much Aunt Brenda for sharing Uncle Art with Devin. I don't think you had the opportunity to dance with him. Sorry!! Thanks for an awesome weekend and Best Wishes to Mr & Mrs Mcafee! Raquel you looked so Beautiful!!
