ruthie and i are in wylie, tx watching jon's last wrestling match of the season.

he lost his first bout, which was before we got here, but we just saw him pin his last opponent with 5 seconds to go!

he was really in attack mode against a kid that was chunkier than he was.

update: he won another bout as well and now gets to compete again.

this post is a shortie. an image of amber poplion all dressed up for halloween form when she did her trick-or-treating at cedar hill's new government center. she is home and recovering quite well.

amy and david had fun at a college station a & m university halloween party dressed up as wilma and fred flintstone!

just a quickie post to put this photo up from our august, 2008 cruise on the carnival ecstasy that our family of 5 took. it was one of about 3 photos that all 5 of us were actually in.

this was from one of the formal nights and as you can see, we decided that formal was not going to be suits and ties on this cruise. casual was in for the buford clan!

last night ruthie and i went to children's medical center to see amber poplion and this time i did indeed bring my camera along.

she is doing much better, as you can see, and even walked down to the hospital entrance and outside to say goodbye to us last night. we got nice hugs too.

the doctors have told her parents they will probably send amber (and mom) to a rehab facility on monday or tuesday because she is doing so well on her recovery.

this was a great family shot from the mr. sancho's beach on the island of cozumel, mexico from our recent august cruise.

this is the same beach that ruthie and i had visited the day after we got engaged, so it had special meaning to us.

i have a video of jon buried in the sand where it took him a really long time to pull himself out that i will try and post soon.
