Austin's 5th birthday party

Austin had his 5Th birthday party this past weekend. It's so hard to believe my little boy is five years old and will start school in the fall. Where has the time gone!?! He celebrated his birthday at Pump it Up with family and friends. Thanks to everyone who was able to come out and celebrate with us! Austin had such a great birthday and got so many new cool toys.

I couldn't believe my little two year old, could do the huge obstacle course all by herself! She is amazing :)

A fun Day :)

We had a GREAT day with Kennedy and Grandmother. It started off by playing games at Gattitown and having a big lunch. The kids were all so well behaved and they had so much fun. Then we went to Aunt Rachael and Uncle Gabe's house and the kids got to swim and play in the pool. (Of course they loved it). Thanks for everything Grandmother! Kayla and Austin really enjoyed getting to see their cousin Kennedy.

Now they are shooting guns..POW!

The Latest...

This past weekend Travis and I took the kids to a park for lunch in Waxahachie. Travis used to go with Grandpa, when he was a little boy. The weather was beautiful. After we ate lunch, we went on a short walk down a nature trail. We didn't do it long, because a guy warned us about snakes! Kayla and Austin sure kept an eye out for those snakes. I took the kids bowling for the first time and they had a blast. We look forward to doing that a lot more this summer. They are in a free summer bowling program. Every day this summer they get to bowl 2 games for free. AWESOME!


Travis & the kids.

Love it! Our big boy Austin getting ready to bowl.

Kayla bowling. She carried the ball and put it on this silver thing, and then she would push it down the ramp. Fun! Look at her cute little bowling shoes.

Strong little Kayla! Look at that determined face. This photo makes me laugh.

Giants of the Savanna

The kids and I took a trip to the Dallas Zoo to check out the new Giants of the Savanna. It is my favorite part of the zoo. Austin and Kayla loved looking at the animals. They especially liked the Cheetahs and Lions. It was HOT!

Party Time!

Austin & Kayla were invited to Cole's 5Th birthday party. He plays soccer with Austin. The kids had such an awesome time on the water slide. It was such a beautiful day for a party.

Last Soccer Game

Austin had his last Spring season soccer game with the Mustangs. The coach is great and so are the kids and parents. He has been on a good team. After the game they were awarded their trophy for the season. Austin was super excited to receive another trophy. Way to go Mustangs. Austin is #3 in the photos below.

Austin was the 1st one to get a trophy.
