The latest in the life of Murray






Murray will be 7 months old on June 2nd. In some ways it is hard to believe that! He is such a sweety and full of personality.He says "bububububu", laughs, and the latest is an open mouth growl; pretty funny! He is not crawling yet... but, he will sit with support. He's getting there.Here are some recent pics of him sleeping on the couch with his big brother, hanging out with Daddy, etc. Also, a little clip of him in the bathtub. Enjoy!

Memorial Day Weekend









Monday, we had planned to swim and spend the afternoon outside. It was very windy, and we got completely rained out . We still had some people over, but we stayed inside. So, our friends the Messers are moving back to CA. this week. We had their 2 older boys Sean and Ethan spend the night on Mon. Here are some pictures of the boys swimming on Tues. morning.

Monday Evening




Monday evening the boys sang in a program to close out the end of the school year. Here they are pictured with their teacher Ms. Feaster. The next picture is Carver with his freind Anna, and the last one is the boys principal, Mr. Reeves.

The Last Day of School
























Carver and Tegan had a half day of school on Monday and since Danny now has Mondays off, we decided to celebrate.






The kids have had certificates for free kids meals for the Rainforest Cafe for quite a while. So, we surprised them and took them there for lunch. It was a lot of fun. We sat right in front of a large aquarium. This is one of the rare pics of the kids looking this way. Most of the time they were glued to the water and all the interesting surroundings.

We had a great time!



A Day in the Days of Old
















I find that I have a lot of things to post, since I just started... I apologize for back tracking a bit.





Saturday, May 3rd we went to a Rennasaince Festival down the road from us. Here are some pictures from that day. We went with our friends the Messers who are moving back to CA. next week. This is a short video clip of some musicians at the festival.

Start 'em Young!


Lest you think we staged this picture... Cooper, actually asked to "read" this book.
We thought it was hilarious when he sat there with it for quite a while. Just like this.

A more recent family picture!


This was taken at Chuck E Cheese where we had Tegan and Cooper's BDay on St. Patrick's Day in March. ( See the shamrock tie that Danny is wearing?)

Murray Joseph Gain Woods











These were taken a couple of months ago, by our good friend Ilde Cook.







My first blogging attempt!

Yeah! I'm figuring this out as I go...I'm not the most computer savvy person, but this seems like the best way for friends and family to stay updated on what's going on with us.

This is actually a picture from last summer when we were on vacation in the Smoky Mountains. This was taken at Ripley's Aquarium. At the time I was 7 months pregnant with Murray.

Danny and I really like this picture. I guess it's about time we took some more family pics!
FYI- Carver is now 9 (he'll turn 10 in July), Tegan is 8, Sadie is 6, Cooper is 3 and little Murray will be 7 months on June 2nd.
