Snapshots: Blanton Museum

We've had this "date" on the books for 3 weeks. The Blanton Museum of Art at (ahem, t.u.) is just a block from Scott's downtown office. It's a truly fabulous place and for the last 6 weeks they've had this exhibit on "The Virgin, Saints and Angels." We had to check it out. I'm not sure who was more excited, Scott and I, or Will. I would show you the art, but no photos allowed. Sorry. If you have some ...

Top Ten: Best Spring Breaks

You knew it was coming, right? The weather here rocks (if you're not in Central Texas, I apologize now for gloating). It was 75 and sunny - just gorgeous - today, which really put me in the mood to reflect on favorite spring breaks. So, here goes...BEST SPRING BREAKS1. Tour 'o Texas. Some of you know my mom was a teacher and many of those years were spent teaching Texas history. It was not an option for my brother and ...

Weekend Wrap-up

Another weekend slips by way too fast! Scott took off work most of Friday and Saturday to attend the UIL State Basketball tournament at the Erwin Center. He loves this weekend and looks forward to it all year. I'm looking forward to having Uncle Cory back in Texas so he has someone in which to share his excitement. When he starts the play-by-play, my face pretty much goes blank. Sorry, honey.Friday night Will had his first sleepover for a friend's ...

And then, as an aside, I decided to do the Stations of the Cross with the kids.Will was at a birthday party and I had just put Clare to bed. John Paul and Anna-Laura were in the living room watching tv. The kitchen was a disaster, so was the living ...

Snapshots: Yee Haw!

Oh my, so many to share. Texas Day, in honor of our state's sweet birthday, was a hit at St. Helen today. You should've heard them sing...There was a whole lotta sass with those boots today, so "Miss Texas" wasn't into taking any pictures. Sorry.

Top Ten: Little Known Campaign Issues

Well, sorry I'm late in the day on getting the top ten list out. Many of my clients are campus ministry programs and they're all on spring break next week. So, they all had a conference call and decided to send me work the same week. That was so nice of them to coordinate, wasn't it? And, Scott is Mr. Fundraiser the next few months. All good causes, mind you, but he's busy. And for a family who's love language ...

Howdy!

... and welcome to the chaos. I know a thing or two about big families (I've got 6 kids), carpool, Catholic converts, the Texas Aggies, prematurity, date nights with Mr. Whitaker, organization and party planning, but I still don't know why it's so hard for my kids to  put up their shoes. My Texas-sized heart is honored to have you here! Contact me at kathrynwhitakertx@gmail.com
