Back to Blogging

Hello again blog. Well it seems that I am not the blogger that I thought I was or would be. I had grandious dreams of weekly postings of our family and the insightful lesson about life that I learned from their daily occurrences with professional photographs and witty captions. Not quite. I will leave the creative writing to my friend Julie and her blog. The professional pictures are a work in progress and the main goal will be to keep posting. But lets be realistic folks....weekly is not going to happen, I'm going to try for monthly and any thing more than that is an extra bonus. Here are some random pictures from the season thus far. Just trying to have fun and stay cool at home this summer....enjoy!


Kick ball games at USAA are a weekly tradition as we cheer on Chris who coaches his department team.

Jude enjoys playing in the water wherever we go. Here he is having fun at the McKenna Children's Museum in New Braunfels.

Three generations of Figueroas on Father's Day 2011

Pinkalicious girl! I took Molly(with her mom and sister) to see Pinkalicious (the children's musical based on the children's book) at the Magik Theater here in San Antonio. It was a fun girly date as an early birthday gift to this almost 5 year old lady. We topped off the day with some most delicious and pinkalicious cupcakes at Cupcake Couture.

Bath time with Molly and Gabe....it's becoming a monthly tradition.
