Brothers

"Brothers don't shake hands, Brothers gotta hug (wrestle, tackle, etc)"  - Tommy Boy, but I added the parenthesis

 

                          

These two are crazy together.  Their personalities are very different but they have many of the same loves......sports, outside, competition, and reading just to name a few.  What a joy it is to watch these two become best friends.  And, when did Hudson get so big?

Our Littlest Man

This little one cracks me up and often has me wrapped around his little finger.  Like his older brother and sister, he brings much joy to our lives.  But I'm not gonna lie, he and I have our fair share of difficult moments.  He is fairly strong-willed and has a I can do anything and everything by myself attitude.  He adores his brother and sister and loves to spend *lots* of time with Mommy.  These pictures are from one of our afternoons in the backyard and I decided to get my camera (recently, this hasn't happened very often).  I can't believe how much he has grown up in the last couple months!

 

Summer,

we will miss your swimming, but not your mosquitos!

Arboretum

Recently, we went to the Dallas Arboretum to enjoy the Chihuly exhibit. And enjoy we did! It was amazing. Hudson was so excited about the sculptures and talked about them the rest of the day. If you have a chance to get out there, it is a MUST SEE. Thank you Lynsi, Aiden and Addy for joining us, what a blessing to spend a beautiful morning with friends.

Olympic Party

With the upcoming Olympic Games, we decided to host our own Games for kids and families. It was an absolute blast!!!!! Now everyone is ready for the Olympics to start. We had each family choose a country to represent and we made a flag for each one. We started with the opening ceremonies and announced each country. We then moved on the different events: long jump, archery, hurdles, gymnastics, javelin, soccer shoot out and fencing. Thank you to all the families that came out to join in the fun! Sorry for the picture overload and the random order....there was no way around it

Summer has begun!

Here are a few of the things that I anticipate we will spend lots of time doing this summer. My kids LOVE to be outside, so we will have to get out first thing when the temperature really starts creeping up there. Yay for summer and all the fun that will be had!
