A Memorial weekend was had by all.

We always go down to the Bay for Memorial Day weekend. The whole family is there and tons of fun is had by all. We swim, boat, run, play, eat, and just spend time together as a family. This is one weekend I do not ever want to give up. So many fun memories are had by all. And you know this mom, I always have a camera in hand so I took TONS of pictures but I love them all. Shows the fun we truly had this weekend..

Carter going down our water slide. He loved it and didn't want to stop.

And Drake being a dare devil, giving the slide a BIG JUMP.


The race is on.

Loves to be on the pier, doing anything.

Three boys playing in the pool. The boys (all 4) loved to swim in the pool on the deck. We spent many of hours on the deck running around and swimming.

SNOW CONES

Sara brought a lawnmower bubbly blower, Carter loved it.

Drake even enjoyed some bubbles.

HONK THE BARGE!

Jess was out fishing offshore, so Sara and I took the oldest boys fishing during nap time. Drake caught two fish and mommy had to somehow get them off the hook. Pliers came in handy. I was so proud that some how I got them off and didn't scream too much. I LOVE to fish, but not enjoy taking them off the line.

Our 2nd fish.


Pool buddies.

Mommy get soaked by Drake Man.

More snow cones.

This sand castle was made to honor the men of the arm forces.. AMAZING!!! This totally took my breath away. Drake wasn't too excited to see a sand castle, but when we pulled up he told me that he was so glad he came. He thought it was too cool and couldn't believe that it was made out of sand.




My Big Guy.

We deflated the pool at the end of the day, but the boys had fun riding their bikes through the water and sliding on the deflated pool.


We got to end the day with not ONE but TWO rainbows. I went outside to take a picture and the guy next door said that this was the most beautiful rainbow he has ever seen. I have to agree with him.

And then two munchies in the bed that end our day. I LOVE THESE BOYS!

Dance Party USA

We had a little dance party tonight with my boys. Drake was dancing, but at the end he grabbed his camera too and we had fun recording Carter.


And then this one turns him into my little table dancer

Slippen Slide Saturday

A fun day out.

Our day started today at the Houston Zoo. I forget how much I enjoy the zoo. My friends and I took the little ones for a quick visit while the oldest were in school. The kids had a blast. Carter and Blake took over Malorie's wagon, but she was fine in the stroller. We didn't get to visit all the animals, but we did see the elephants, giraffe, Toby the red panda, a bear, and a few others. The kids didn't care how long or short we stayed, as long as we ended up on the train. The new train was awesome. We had a blast riding, and every time we stopped Carter would say 'One more time.' The is his new way to get us to do something again, and it usually works. You just can't say no.

The day ended where a kid can be a kid. Or as you can see in some of those pictures, where Jess and I can be a kid. The last couple of days Carter has been waking up and asking to go to Chucky Cheese and play games. It seems like every night lately we have had a baseball game, or baseball practice, but tonight we had nothing. We decide to load up the kids and head out to eat pizza and play games. It was a wonderful evening. We had a blast together as a family. It was nice on a Wednesday, because there was not many people there and the kids could run and enjoy their selves. I think the pictures talk for them selves, look at their faces.
