New Blog - change your links

We are going to move the blog, retiring babycavin.blogspot.com and moving to goteamcavin.blogspot.com. The reason for this is because we want the blog to represent the whole family, and not just a place where we post pics of Sam. We will hopefully be able to keep you all updated on everything else that is going on with us. So, babycavin will still be around for you go back and look at, but all new posts will be on goteamcavin. Hope you like it.

Susu & Grandad are in town

We've been having fun with Susu this past week. Here are some photos to document the visit. Alan just got in town tonight, so we'll probably add photos to this album by Sunday.



I apologize for the barrage of photos that are coming at you tonight. I've been meaning to put these out for several weeks, then my computer crashed (with some photos that I didn't have anywhere else). Once we recovered the photos I wanted to get them posted without delay.

Easter Camping Trip

To celebrate Easter we met up with Grammy & Grandy at Lake Somerville State Park which is just 30 minutes down the road. We had a great time sailing and relaxing; I got to go trail running; we took our camping palace for her inaugural trip; Sam got some sun on all his 2000 parts; we dyed Easter eggs; visited with Sherry & Darrow; and then had an Easter egg hunt on Sunday morning. It was a great way to celebrate.
In all that fun somehow we didn't get any good pictures of Mom & Robert, I mean Grammy & Grandy. I'll try to get some more from them.
I have to say that I really like going to a sunrise service on Easter morning - maybe next year. Our church meets on Sunday evenings, but there is something really special and wonderful about greeting one another with "He is risen!" and receiving a warm "He is risen, indeed!" Nonetheless - He is risen!

Drew's Soccer Game

Drew had a soccer game the day after he got back from California. Sam & I had lots of fun cheering. Go Scrubs!

I'll add more action shots from the game later. They're on the other computer.

Spring Break Visit with Family

While Drew was in California leading a surfing trip for TAMU Outdoors, Sam & I went to visit family in the Dallas area. We spent Wednesday night with Brett & Julie, then Thursday night with KK & Pops, spent the day with Gran & Pa and finally spent Friday night with Grammy & Grandy (Mom & Robert). Some how we didn't get any photos with Brett & Julie or with Gran & Pa. Bummer! We had a great time seeing everyone - thanks for hosting us!

Snow in College Station

Have a look at this!



And a photo of Drew and Danny heading out to workout in the white stuff. (Don't they look tough?)

Visiting Che & Nila

Last weekend Sam & I flew out to Arizona to visit Dad & Phoebe. Melissa, Adam, Elijah & 3 week old Collier also flew out, so I've finally gotten to meet our new nephew! While we were there, we decided that the boys will call them Che & Nila (I'm not sure about the spelling - Phoebe will you tell me the correct spelling, please?). These are the Navajo language (Diné Bizaad) words for grandfather & grandmother. We are really excited to honor Phoebe's heritage in this way.

Here are some photos from the trip. Phoebe's birthday was on the 29th, so we celebrated her "8th" birthday. When Phoebe's mom called, we found out that it was actually her 9th birthday - oops!

What did George Bush ever do for me?

Don't worry, this is not a political rant, but I did want to show off the new tent/garage that we bought with the money that Jorge Bush's government gave us back this year. It's huge, as you can see. We could quite literally park our car in it. We bought this with the hopes that it would provide years of family camping fun. It's big enough for us, at least 2 pack and plays, and the dogs, or 5-6 adults. We plan on testing it out after spring break, we'll share more photos then.
