12 of 12 - I got the idea from somebody else and modified it. My 12 of 12 is 12 pictures for each of the 12 months of the year (I print a 12 picture collage each month). It is really fun in January to look back over the previous year.

September 6 - Any time is a good time to visit Buc-ees. A Friday morning outing with James and Amanda. #AnyExcuse  #BuceesIsBest 

September 8 - James helping me with Sunday morning announcements. No crying...just giving me a little stink eye! #JamesMakesADebut  #MeanMuggin' 

September 12 - Well, it's that time again. Quarterly snaking out of the sewer line. #NeverFun #ThisStinks 

 September 12 - Did a ride out with my favorite side of town! #WestSide  #ISupportAPD

September 13 - Time for a new phone. The finalists were refurbished iPhone 8, LG V50 or the Google Pixel 3. Went with the Google Pixel 3 because of the camera reviews and because I will own the phone in 24 months rather than be in a lease. #LikeThePhone  #ImAGoogleGuy 

September 14 - These two always use each other as pillows. #SamsonAndDelilah  #Family 

September 19 - Brooke could not wait for James to model his Alabama onsie. #TheyAreBothCuties  #HappyBaby

September 20 - Not sure what we were out doing...they will accept any excuse to go for a ride. #Adventuring  #ThreeAmigos 

September 21 - Amanda had been texting Brooke about going to a pumpkin patch with James so we posed in front of this display at Krogers and told Amanda we were at a pumpkin patch, too. #GroceryShoppingTogether  #LoveMyWife

September 26 - On the way to Nacogdoches to visit my friend Stan. When passing a Buc-ees on a road trip, one does not pass by without stopping in. #TwiceThisMonth  #SoloTripToBuccees 

September 27 - It's what we do when Stan and I get together. I hit a steel pig at 400 yards with this rifle. #RangeTherapy  #AR15_556 

September 28 - So thankful for my friend Stan. Always a great time getting to hang out with him for a couple days. #TrueFriend  #Blessed

August 4 - Had such a great time visiting with Craig and his family at end of July - first of August. Since the whole family was home the night before I returned to Texas, seemed like a great time for picture! #ThanksForLettingMeHangWithYourFamily

 August 5 - Last picture with Craig at the airport before heading home. Cannot say how thankful I am for our 30 year friendship. #BestFriendsAlways

 August 15 - James, Amanda and Weenie were hanging out at the house while Amanda was less than 100% with the bum elbow. I came home for lunch so we had some family time just chillin'. #SammyWontLookAtTheCamera  #LunchTimeChillin

August 18 - Took a picture with my wife after church on Sunday simply because she makes me look good just by being in the picture with me! #YoureMyFavorite 

 August 20 - Grayson stopped by the office so we got to hang out for a little bit. He either liked seeing himself on my computer screen as we were taking the picture, or he just makes crazy/cute facea for no reason. #GraysonVisits

August 26 - This is the "Get out of the kitchen" spot the doggies go to when it's time for dinner. They sit there "patiently" waiting for the "OK" to run to their bowels. #ThoseEyes

August 27 - What do you do when the pin holding a little fragment of bone in your elbow starts working its way out causing great pain and loss of mobility? You have surgery, of course. And what more fun way to have surgery than to show up at 5 in the morning and drag (I mean "bring") your family with you at 0'dark hundred? #WeLoveAmanda #AllBetterNow  

 August 27 - I'm either the baby whisperer or I'm so boring a I can put a baby to sleep. #TimeWithPops 

 August 30 - Spurgeon is happy and toasty warm, regulating his body temperature by opening his mouth (called "gaping"). #HappyDragon

 August 30 - Sammy is still not sure what to make of the bearded dragon and the little gecko. We have to watch him so that he does not "investigate aggressively". #AnimalsInTheHouse 

 August 31 - Two of my favorite things...James Levi and Texas! #HappyTexan

August 31 - Can you see the geocache hanging from the tree (wrapped in camo tape)? Trying to get back to geocaching again this year. #seekhim17
