Christmas In Texas

We made it through yet another Christmas and had a wonderful time visiting family and friends in Texas. We spent part of our time visiting the Walker side in Allen (DFW area) and the other part in San Antonio visiting the McQueen side. This was the first time for our family to see me pregnant, so it was quite fun seeing the various reactions to my big tummy. And at the same time we realize that every Christmas from this point on will never be the same, seeing how our daughter will be 9 months old this time next year... Yikes, it sure adds new fun to traveling plans! We hope each one of you had as equally a wonderful and memorable Christmas and wish you a Happy New Year!

Winter is Coming

I know that most of you who read our blog don't live in a cold weather climate, but I thought I might share a fustration that hasn't necissarily happened to me, but.... well just watch, you'll get the picture!

Poor Guy

Wish you were to see this...

Ok, here they are... the creative trio.... Randall, Chad and Sammie... sitting on our porch in the 40 degree weather, passing out candy to trick-or-treaters and having fun! (there is a strobe light in the background, but the camera didn't catch it) Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

We decided to go cheap and yet still be a little creative this year by making a costume for Sammie, who is dressed up as a black bat. She's not as thrilled as we are, but she still receives treats everytime she dresses up. As for Randall, he decided to buy an extra accessory to hand out candy to the neighborhood kids on the 31st and will be joined by Chad B. (later pics for when he arrives here). As for me, this is actually my first time to post anything on our blog, but as you can see in the pic, I am dressed as an ordinary pregnant lady... cop out, I know, but I figured it was the easiest costume, although not the cheapest. Happy Halloween!

Girls

I, randall, am very excited that today Liz and I found out that we will be having a GIRL!! To emotions come to mind mostly of how little I know about babies, well that one has been a given all along. Now that we're going to be having a girl I am beginning to realize I am going to know even less, because what do I know about girls. Oh well, who cares......... all I know is that I'm going to have a beautiful daughter in about 4 more months!!

Here It Is

Here's What You've All Been Waiting For

Baby Announcement Video

Hope veerybody enjoies. Oh, and just a reminder, this is what we showed to our church so they all found out at the same time during service.

Now I'm frustrated even more!!!

Ok so I just got done bashing MediaMax because of how jacked up everything is with them right now, and then I go to publish my post and this blog site messed up and I lost my post.... What is this world coming too??? All these computer people and programmers they have one job make the programs work!!! Is that too much to ask??? Don't charge me 5 bucks a month like mediamax a.k.a streamload is doing and not have your site/service working. I think we as people don't expect technology to work all the time so we let these guys slide, but what are we to do??? It's just like the car mechanic, the AC guy, plumbers, and anyone else who will take advantage of people who aren't in that profession and need their services!!! I apologize now to anyone who is reading this and may become offended.......... I realize not all people are this way, but it seems to me that I personally have had the worst luck with the afore mentioned people. Oh well, what am I to do other than wait..... NOtHing. And that my friends is exactly what I will do. So sorry, but I may not try again for another week to get that video up and going.

We're Pregnant

Just incase you are one that hasn't heard yet... well just read the above titles. That's right Liz and I are going to be having a baby somewhere around March 13. We're so excited and I am now realizing that I have pretty much no clue as to how to take care of a baby. But I'm still excited none the less. This Friday the 25th we are supposed to get to hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time, and since I've never heard an unborn child's heart beat I'm pretty curious as to how it sounds...... guess I'll find out soon.
We shared the wonderful news with our church family in a video that I made. The video starts out like the old gossip game telephone, except well it's all on video. It usually turns out pretty funny, except sometimes the kids just like to make up their own stuff so none of it really makes any sense. Just check out the video and you'll see what I'm talking about.

(video not uploaded yet),......check back later

Old Friends

Hey everybody... this is just a video I am testing out to see if I can actually put them on here. I think I've got it all figured out. If you Knew amanda, lizzy, or any of their friends from college you should check out the video. I origonaly made this for Amanda from lizzy as a gift during her engagement/marriage time.

Freinds Video from College

sorry, about the sorry audio quality

New Member of the Walker Family

We just wanted everybody to meet Avery, after Avery Johnson the Mavs coach. This is Meghan with the families first doggie.

Be Warned

Not quite two years ago someone guided to a web site where I found this video. It blends a secular song with some graphic video of people and teenagers doing destructive things. It also includes clips from the movie The Passion of the Christ. This video isn't for the faint of heart, and if you haven't seen that movie for those reasons then I advise you to not watch this video. If you want to be rocked a bit then by all means please watch and tell others to watch as well.

Reason To Start Over New

Chris Graduated

Okay, well the picture may be a little crazy but things were pretty wild that night after the graduation. When there's a ton of people hanging around outside of UNT's coliseum all trying to take pictures it's a wonder that we even got a halfway decent picture. Liz is really proud of her brother and we enjoied getting to spend time with family and friends while we were down on our last visit. Just a little on Chris... He graduated in the top ten percent in his class and will be attending the University of Texas in Austin this fall. I would post some video of the graduation, but I forgot the video camera and we were way up in the nose bleed section. Well maybe not that high, but it was up there. Chris I doubt you read this, but enjoy your time in college, get plugged into a good church, and surround yourself with great friendships!!!

Fire works on July 4th

Liz and I could have watched from our front porch but we joined some of our church members at the park for Freedom Fest.

I'm Back

I know that I have been gone for a long while, but there was one request about what we (my wife and I) have been up to and that we need to update our blog, so here I go. This is an attempt to add at least semi weekly. We recently had our family visit us and maybe you're wondering who.... all of them my parents and sister and Liz's parents and brother and sister all here at the same time. Talk about a house full. Nine people and five dogs. You've seen the pictures of sammie, but then there was also Grace (goldendoodle), Rosie (cocker spaniel), Avery (king Charles spaniel), and Daisy (Las Opso), and of course Sammy (English setter). Needless to say when we were all together in our little house meant for a small family everybody was on top of each other. We are all family so it was no big deal. Just nice to see our family from Texas.
