Our Views from the House

Welcome to our New Home with Mom here in Holiday Lakes! No doubt we are "definitely" in the Country! Sure is different from California.
This is what it looks like as we pull up to the driveway. I (Sallie) have regained my driving privileges back after my past "hit-the-pole" incident! Although I still do not drive up the narrow driveway to "double-park", for everyone ELSE's sake! I don't want to drive into the flood ditch so I have Sean do it! Safety first!
Right across from us is the Holiday Lakes Baptist Church. We haven't found a Catholic Church closeby yet but will soon.

This is however, DJ's routine-run as he dashes over there every chance he gets. Someone "up there" is definitely watching over him as he's already been side-smacked by a passing car before. After his injured leg healed, right away he's back out there again, but now running along-side the passing cars and barking as he tries to out-run them. Silly Dog! On our way into Holiday Lakes, and out, we always pass the "Blue" building. It's a Municipal building and where some PO Boxes are located. (not ours) They don't open til 1 because the lady who works there also runs the mini store as you enter Holiday Lakes. Across the blue building there is also Small Fire Station and behind it a small empty field- possibly for Little League Baseball that we haven't seen so far.
As we leave our driveway, as you can see, there is "nada" to the right of us unless you drive further into Holiday Lakes. Sean and I have explored further in and there are various homes surrounding the lake that is filled with lily pods. We live on the outskirts of Holiday Lakes and no one is on our block except us, which is nice!

...Stay tune for more pixes of Kyra's school, drive into Town of Angleton, etc.


CJ growing up Fast!



CJ is really becoming quite a character to keep up with daily! He is very bright and observant. We have come to find his toys disappearing and then suddenly reappearing in his Grandpa Kerry's PC unit. He definitely has his Daddy Sean's passion to take apart, fix, and examine whatever he can get his hands on!


CJ is slowly adapting to his new surroundings here in Texas. Whenever he gets in trouble, he'll run to Grandma Faye for safety or go dance to the "Beach Boys" with Grandpa Kerry until he feels he's a "good boy" again. Then he'll come back to our side of the house again until he doesn't get his way again. But "Boys will be Boys," and CJ surely letting us know that. We can't seem to keep up with him and his neverending energy!
