Pics from Dallas

As noted a while back, Tracy and Charlotte took a weekend trip to Dallas and did a mini-reunion/baby shower weekend with a bunch of old friends from our church from NYC.  While in Texas, our friend and budding professional photographer Katie Markquart took some great pics.  Here are a few - and if you’re in NYC and looking for someone to take family or baby pics, you should check out Katie’s work and set up an appointment!

Tebow Fever

The talk of the sports world is most definitely Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos and their thrilling OT victory over the Steelers.  During the game, Miller showed a little Tebow Fever.

Travel Weekend

Tracy and Charlotte hopped on a plane Friday morning headed to Dallas, Republic of Texas for the weekend.  They are meeting up with a bunch of other girls (and a few babies) who were in our small group Bible study in NYC a couple years ago and to surprise our friend Shannon, who is very close to having her first child.

This was obviously Charlotte’s first flight so we were interested to see how it would go.  Thankfully, it was direct from RDU => DFW and by all accounts Char Char did great (though it helped that there was an empty seat, so she even got her own digs).

Miller and I have been enjoying a guys weekend with lots of playing with trains, shooting hoops on his indoor goal, and some yard work raking up leaves (Miller actually helped!).

Thanks to the magic of iPhone and iMessaging, we’ve been able to text images and even video back and forth from NC to Texas.  By way of example, here’s a shot of me and Miller checking in to say “Hi Mom!”

And a subsequent pic of Charlotte and her new friend Beth Lee (who was born a couple weeks before her.  Beth is the sister of Bennet Lee, who was born a couple weeks before Miller while we were both living in NYC). Miller and I couldn’t stop laughing at Char and Beth’s sweet moustaches

Just for kicks, here’s an old school pic of Miller and Bennet from NYC (when they were ~2.5 months (miller) and 3 months of age, so pretty similar time frame)
