Summer Time

One of his best friends from school at church, Lauren!

Connor had a birthday, he is 5yrs old. Very sad for me, happy for him!

KK at one of her 2 field trips in 1st Grade. I was a chaperone on this one.

LISDOLA, outdoor scavenger hunt and nature walks. We had lots of fun.

A balloon exhibit...we were one of 1,000's

not one of my better Sunday afternoon activity suggestions





Summer is finally here and now it seems to be zooming away!!! Story of our life.
KK finished 1st grade and Connor completed pre-school(graduation and all). During the spring both played spring soccer. This season I think the weather only permitted 3 practices, but after much moving around they did manage to get all of their games in.
We headed to Grammy and Pop Pops for Easter as I had an event before and after Spring Break. We met up with Uncle Blake and found a GREAT sledding hill. We did a full day of skiing ON EASTER Sunday. That was perfect because it was not too crowded. The kids were signed up for daycare and ski lessons so us adults could have some fun as well. We watched the kids from afar on their bunny slope and both did very well. We took them out for a spin after lunch and KK even rode the chair lift and went down a little hill. Once was enough for her but she surprised us and tried it out.
Since March 20th we have not had a stadium wide event!!!!!! That is great news. I have had to work so Large catering events but...we have our first event for this year coming up in July and then pre-season starts again in August. This year I am much more mentally prepared for the fall season ahead!!
Trevor quit his banking job at the beginning of June and is taking a class and trying to pass a test to become a teacher. Because he already has his 4year degree the classload is minimal. We are all very excited for this new journey for him as his GIFT is with kids. Don't know yet whether he will get a teaching job this upcoming fall but will SUB if not and find out which grade he enjoys the most. The kids are excited to have their daddy HOME all summer long. And I am very happy that they are not in daycare!!
Since we were unable to travel AT ALL last year we are getting some in this year. The day school got out we headed to Arkansas to see my grandparents with Carrie. The kids are going to Weatherford next week for VBS with their Maw Maw, then July 8th-20th they will be in Idaho visiting Amy and family then on to Steamboat Springs to hang out with Pop Pop, Grammy, Uncle Blake and Carrie. I will meet them in Co as I will not be going to Idaho:(
They are currently in soccer camp this week. It is ridiculously hot out there even at 8:30am, better them then me:)
Hope everyone else is doing good!! Enjoy the updated pictures

2010 Here We Come

Hello Friends and Family... We have been out of the blog world for awhile. Time at home for me in particular has not been spent on the computer. We are not going to dwell on the blur of 2009. We, the Fuxa Family, all four of us survived. We learned alot about ourselves, we learned alot about each other. We learned alot about the ones we are close to.

The stadium had 30 STADIUM WIDE events from June 6 2009 - January 9, 2010. We had 11 Cowboys Games, 6 HSFB Days, 1 Cotton Bowl, 1 Big XII, 3 other College Games, 2 Soccer Matches and 4 Concerts, 1 NCAA Basketball Game and 1 Star Wars Movie. And YES I worked all of them... Carrie attended 7 of them, Trevor attended 9 of them and KK and Connor attended 4 of them. Enough about all of that... 2010 should be much more relaxed if only because we have been through all of this before and have somewhat of a gauge.

Christmas was spent at home. Grammy and Pop Pop came on Monday and stayed until Saturday. We were able to see the Rosenthals and the Gyarfas'. We also went to Aunt Eileens for lunch. LOTS of fun playtime at the house and a slumber party for the grandparents and kids at the "apartment" that is what the kids call the hotel. We also landed some tickets to the Rockettes which all of us enjoyed. I was off Tues-Christmas which was GREAT!!! We were able to wake up Christmas morning to a WHITE Christmas here in Texas. Grammy and Pop Pop were here to celebrate with us. Currently we still do not have any BIG traditions, we have made a gingerbread house each year, and there is always alot of singing with the Christmas CD's. So pretty much we go with the flow each year. Carrie had to work in the morning of Christmas so she came at lunch time!! So we continued to open presents all throughout the day. Connor got a drum set and KK a cheerleading outfit from Santa. At the end the night Trev created a scavenger hunt for their final present; sleeping bag and flashlights. (That was fun, that may be something we do moving forward). Some of the other gifts were a password journel, easel, monster truck remote control and Carrie's favorite... 2 seasons of Full House on DVD!! Bonding for KK and Carrie... memories for me as I remember coming home from school seeing Carrie watch them over and over...
Then the very next week the Brumlow flew in from Idaho. Trev and the kids spent the WHOLE week in Weatherford with the cousins. I went 2 nights. We did Christmas morning on the 29th. All of the grown ups were awake before the kids. The gifts from this session were, books, Charlie Brown dvd's, baby alive, hot wheels tracks and bouncy balls.
Soccer is getting ready to start again, both of the kids are on the same team as last year. Trev and I are picking up the kids one day a week and Maw Maw is picking them up 2 days. All of our babysitters have new schedules that are not condusive for picking up the kids after school. We consider us lucky that KK only has to go to after day care 1 day a week.
That is a quick recap of our Fuxa happenings. I will try to be better this year with updates.

Below are some pictures since the last post in October!! Hope everyone is doing good.

Christmas 2009 KK 6 and CB 4

Blake, Heather and Carrie at the Stadium, The Cowboys are practicing in the background. This was before the Nov 22 WIN over the Washington Redskins. Blake came in for the game and the kids had lots of fun with their uncle. They even had a slumber party with their aunt and uncle at Carries' house:) Went to Amarillo in November because we were homesick!! Well actually parent sick. Carrie and the kids and I met them in Amarillo, exactly 1/2 way for both of us.

Grammy, Pop Pop and the kids at what they call a zoo in Amarillo:)

One of the first games in August I think!?!?

Star Wars Fanatics. They were able to watch clips of the movie on the BIG screen. Trevor did mention the first time he saw the big screen how cool would it be to watch Star Wars. WOW!! Dream come true!

Trunk or Treak at our Church!! This was a great way to go trick or treating!!

Connor at the pumpkin patch. Unusual for him to get his own pic!!

He was hamin' it up.
