Grandmother’s 90th Birthday

On April 6th, Grandmother turned 90.  We were finally able to get together to celebrate on May 16.  Lots of family and friends got together at Scott and Christina Henderson’s house (my aunt and uncle) in Highland Park, TX.  It was so much fun to be able to see family that we had not seen in several years!

Fort Worth Zoo

While we were in Texas last week, we decided to take the boys to the Fort Worth Zoo.  We had a great time!  The day began with lots of school children and very pleasant weather.  As the crowds thinned, however, the temperature heated up.  By the end of the day we were all hot and tired.  It was worth it, though! 

Ian’s 5th Birthday Party

Ian turned 5 on May 3rd, but we waited until Saturday the 9th to celebrate.  We had such a good time!  It was a beautiful day except for some of the strongest wind I’ve ever been in!  Twenty of Ian’s friends came to his Indianapolis Colts party.  He received a lot of nice gifts, but more importantly had a great time! 

Patch the Pirate

Ian is in the PeeWee Patch Club on Sunday evenings.  He loves it every week, but last week was even more exciting than usual – Patch the Pirate came for a visit!

Grandpa Hamrick’s 90th Birthday

On April 5, Grandpa Hamrick turned 90.  The whole Hamrick family got together that weekend to celebrate – 3 children, 6 grandchildren, 5 great-grandchildren, and lots of in-laws.  We had a great time with family that we don’t get to see very often!

Snow! Snow! Snow!

We had a very exciting event in Greenville at the beginning of March – snow!  Ian, Sean, and Kate all loved it and had a lot of fun!  It only lasted for about 24 hours, but all the schools were closed for 2-and-a-half days!

Soccer Spring 2009

Ian enjoyed playing soccer again this spring.  We had a rainy season but finally caught up on all the rained-out games.  The season ended with two games on Saturday, May 2.  The team did really well.  We noticed a big improvement from the fall to the spring.  The only problem is that the better the team gets, the more nervous and excited the parents get!

The Boys and Kate

It’s been a while since I posted any new pictures, so I thought I would try to give everyone a glimpse of life in the Hamrick house over the last few months.  Enjoy!
