This is Where The Cowboys Rides Away!!

You know that old George Strait Song...This is Where the Cowboy Rides Away....Well it reminds me of my Dad. He has been coaching for 34 years!! Last weekend the coaching staff, friends and family bid my Dad - Coach Tommy Zajicek and Coach Johnny Scarborough farewell from coaching and Sweeny ISD. They are both retiring this May!! (Just For Your Information - Coach Scarborough has been my dad's assistant coach and right hand man for as long as I can remember...he was also the BEST calculus teacher on the face of this Earth!!! You will be missed Coach!!) Over the past few years my Dad has apologized for his absence in my youth due to his focus on football...but I don't see it that way at all!! I want my Dad to know that he is the BEST Dad anyone could ever have or want and I know any sacrifices he made in my youth were to benefit me and our family! I LOVE YOU DADDY MORE THAN WORDS CAN EXPRESS!!

Sweeny Pride Day

Every year on the 1st Saturday in May, Sweeny, Texas celebrates Sweeny Pride Day. I think it originated as a May Fest but it is called Pride Day! There is a small parade through town, a Pride Day Queen Pageant, and a carnival at one of the parks. Here are a few pictures from the parade to the carnival.

Jack being "propped" up by the pack-in-play!! He is sitting up on his own but we didn't want him falling over during the parade!!

Waiting for the parade!!

Zajicek Reunion

We had the Zajicek Family Reunion last weekend. It was so nice to see my dad's side of the family again. Here are a few pictures from the weekend.My grandpa, dad, and his 3 brothers and all their kids and family!! Aren't we cute in our matching t-shirts!! LOL!!

Jack trying a snow cone. Little did we know that his 2 bottom teeth would appear when we got back from the trip. I bet that ice felt good on his gums!!

Sweet baby boy!

Daddy and Miller caught a fish in the fishing tournament.

The ENTIRE Zajicek Family

I am sorry I have not been good at keeping up with our blog lately. My excuse isn't good but here goes...I recently got an IPhone!! It is awesome but I have noticed that since I got it I have not needed to use our laptop computer for much anymore. I can do most everything on my IPhone except update the blog!! That being said I have slacked where the blog is concerned. But I promise I will do better. :-)

Aggie Ring

My brother got his Aggie Ring a few weeks ago. We all went to College Station to see him and his new ring. Supposedly it's a big deal or something ;-) Here are a few pictures from the weekend.

My cousin found him a "Ring Dunk" Bib.

Marsh and Miller whooping or whatever the Ags do. :-)

Congrats little brother!!

Audrey in her big girl chair...isn't she so cute!!

The boys all went to the Maroon and White game while we were in town too. The ladies and the kids went to an Aggie Mom sale at Reed Arena. I didn't find much but it was so much fun being with the family.
