Not about the boys, but..






My best friend Erica got married this past weekend, so I thought I would share some pics from the wedding on here, since many of you know her! It was lots of fun, and my nerve wracking toast was a success!! Pics of the little guys coming soon.

Kiddie Land









Collin had his 4th birthday at Kiddie Land in Waco this weekend, and the boys had a great time. Here are some pics of them on the rides, including the big ride that Daddy went on with them!! Also, a pic of their first ball pit experience, and of course, riding the train!

I don't think we're in Texas anymore...




As most of you know, Texas got quite the cold spell on Easter weekend. Waco got approximately 3 inches of snow!! Nothing stuck, but it was neat anyways! Here are a few pics of the kids in the snow, then all the grandkids together on Easter before the egg hunt.

Dying Easter Eggs!








I had a neighbor and her son over yesterday to help dye easter eggs with the boys. They all had lots of fun and made quite the mess!! The boys took a much more actice part in the dying compared to last year. I had to finally take the eggs away as they keep redunking them over and over!! As you can see, Cody decided to decorate himself as well.

More Day out with Thomas pics!!





Day Out with Thomas!!






Stop the presses, I'm actually posting again. My apologies, of course...blah blah blah.

Today we went to the Day out with Thomas tour in Grapevine!! Cody actually told me at one point "today is Christmas"...Thomas means that much to them!! They, we, ... had a blast!!! We took about a 25 minutes train ride on Thomas, jumped in the bounce house, got James (for you non-Thomas people, James is the red train) tattoos, and saw Bob the Builder and Sir Topham Hatt. Then on our way out we got to do pony rides! Unfortunately, Bob and Sir Topham have the same scariness factor as Santa and the Easter bunny, so no pictures with them, but it was neat to see them from a distance!! The boys had a fantastic time, and I'm sure they will remember this for quite a long time!!

Dancing machine!!

The boys, especially Cody, have really gotten into dancing lately!! I love it!!! Whenever music comes on, the starting to groove! Blake's dancing consists more of running around in a circle, but Cody has started really showing us his moves. He is particularly fond of hip hop...if Usher's "yeah" ever comes on the radio, he comes running!!

Cody dancing!!

What happens when Mommy and Daddy forget to feed us...





It's been raining a lot here, so I guess we just got bored. When we get bored, we put our kids in weird places. What can I say? I also want to say that Blakey really did like being up there, I'm not sure why he is looking so sad in the picture!!
The other two are just the little guys being silly, playing with their Cars tent. Cody had slightly bumped his face that day, thus requiring a bandaid. Silly boys. Everything is good here. We're doing really well with potty training (finally, right?) I have been working at two hospitals, doing some extra days, so I haven't had time for picture taking, but this is my last week of that, so I'll be posting more soon!!!

Just a few pics..





Just a few pics from Christmas. Nothing special, and I'm sorry it's been a while! I've been a bad picture taking Mommy lately. I'll take more soon, I promise!!

Prairie Lights






At the lake near us they do an exhibit every year at Christmastime. It's two miles of Christmas lights, and an area with a tent full of the inflatable Christmas decorations. We drove through and the boys loved it! Santa was in the tent and for the first time in three years we had a fairly decent experience with the man in red. Blake told him that he wanted Thomas, Thomas, and more Thomas. Cody refused to speak to him, but at least we got a decent family picture!!

Holiday in the Park






Last night we went to Holiday in the Park at Six Flags. I had never been before and it was really neat. It was cold (in the low 40s), but we had lots of fun. The boys rode 4 or 5 things, and Shawn and I rode one roller coaster. (We went with the boys' babysitter and her family). There was a big parade at the end, but the boys were passed out for that. Oh well. The videos are of the boys and Emily (Shawn's daughter--she's 2 weeks older than Cody and Blake) on the teacups, and then Tadd and Cody going down the snow hill! They are the second sled you see go down.
