O'Neal Family Vacation in Maui


In September, the O'Neal Family went on vacation to Maui.  We all stayed together in a beautiful oceanfront home.  The weather was wonderful and we had so much fun!

Here are some pics from our trip:

Relaxing in the hammock

 Hanging out at the beach
 
 Maverick ate sand by the handful.

Checking out sea life - we went on a glass bottom boat adventure and visited the Maui Ocean Center.

 Stopping for a photo at Banyan Tree Park

 Eating yummy food

And just enjoying each other
   

 

Thank you for such an awesome vacation, Grandma and Grandpa O!  We love you, Family!

Raider Fan in Training

An Ode for the Raiders:
Joy and pain, sunshine and rain
Over and over, you can be sure
There will be sorrow, but you will endure
Raiders do fall but get back up again
Passion, perserverance, and sometimes a win

Karaoke Star

I've recently discovered a new passion - karaoke!  Until now, most people have thought I only take after Daddy.  However, this is proof that I must be Mommy's progeny too. 

Mommy and Daddy got me some karaoke CDs with fun kid songs and I love them.  I don't read the words (because I'm a true artist with original lyrics, duh), but I love crooning into the mic with the backup music behind me. 

Here are some pics of me working the mic.
Maverick is my biggest fan. He's crying because he can't get enough.

Here's a link to a video too:  LINK ON THE WAY.  PLEASE CHECK BACK LATER.

It's even better live.  If you'd like to see a live show next time you come visit us, just let me know.

Housewarming/Mommy's BDay/80s Party

We had an 80s themed party to warm up our new home and celebrate Mommy's 30th birthday. 

Lots of people came in interesting attire. 
 

 Some of us shook our tailfeathers.

And one person was just completely ridiculous. 
Pictorial proof that Mommy is crazy.

Mommy, please don't wear this out in public ever again.

Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate.  Hope you had a happy birthday, Mommy!

Nugget Rib Cook Off

Talley's Review of the annual Nugget Rib Cook Off:


Loved the corn.


Not so fond of the carnie rides.
