Welcome Carter-Happy Birthday Christopher

Rudy and I got a brand new grandson on the 6th. God blessed us with
Carter Wood Rodriguez
on this past Tuesday . He weighed 7 lbs 11 oz and has a head full of black hair. We made a quick trip to see him and cant wait to go back. He is a really pretty baby boy and we cant wait to "get to know him". Congratulations to Rudy II and Casey.

Happy Birthday to my oldest son Chris!


We had a great hamburger supper for Chris' 32nd birthday . He wanted home-made burgers with home-made fries and thats exactly what he got. We had a house full, including Meo and John , the boys dad-Mark,and all of our own boys except Little Rudy, who was busy taking care of his 3 day old son, and Chad, who was working ( We missed you Chad and Kathryn, Rudy , Casey and Carter!)

This is a "portion" of our "wild bunch"

Matt is getting ready to leave us again. He has joined the ARMY! He has already proven that he's one of "The FEW, The PROUD, A MARINE...But he spent all his education money getting his B.S.N.R.N. and he wants to be "more" , so he gets another sign on bonus, and more money for more college! He WILL either be a Nurse anesthesis, or a Doctor someday, you just watch! He's one determined, goal oriented boy, and he will "be all that he can be" . He starts officer candidate school on the 14th in San Antonio and will be stationed @ Fort Sill , OK. in January 2010. I'm gonna miss you son!

He is proof that, "If there's a will, there's a way!

Michael made it home and is staying with Chad for the time being. He has gone back to work for Tyler Pest Services. He will be searching for a new home for he, Kaleb and Kelly, who will be joining him here around December.



After the "party" , Whitney ... &
Jessica...

conned me into taking them down to Chris' house , conning him outside and bombarding him with water balloons. Well we tried. The balloons were too thick and did not pop like they were supposed to. Chris was cheesin' cause their ploy didn't work!
Happy Birthday Son! I love you!

I almost forgot... I pulled Lucas' tooth. Wow he bled alot! I should have taken a picture , but didn't. He must be growing up cause there were NO tears!

LOVE YOU LUKE ♥
