We went to a friend's 7th birthday party at the pool. Allie got to slide down for the first time. I think she loved it!

We went to OKC for the weekend and met mom and dad downtown for dinner. Afterwards, we took a little walk around the riverwalk.

July 5

Lance has decided to try baseball this year, instead of soccer, so we decided to go to the park and the boys threw balls and practiced batting. He is having a blast! Allie just had fun running after the balls, kicking the soccer ball and playing on the playground.

July 4

Happy 4th of July! We spent the day with friends and went to Red White and Boom.

June 29

Girls Night Out to see the Twilight Trilogy. Lots of fun with lots of great friends!!

June 28

Playdate! Lots of boys in my house...

June 27

Papaya... Ummmm, not for us. We went to Sprouts and got some fruit a few days ago and Jeff decided to try the papaya. I just about gagged (which wasn't that surprising) but even the kids, who LOVE fruit didn't like it. Oh well... At least we tried!

June 26

We went to the Celina Balloon Festival to see the balloon glow. Unfortunately, it was too windy for most of the balloons, but we caught the last few minutes of the one that managed to get up. The kids has lots of fun and we got to see some fireworks at the end of the evening.

June 24

We took the group of kids to lunch and ended up at the frozen yogurt shop.

June 23

The difference between eight year olds and 4 year olds???

June 22

I took the kids to the mall to get Lance's glasses fixed. Had to stop for lunch at Charley's!

June 21

Jeff and the kids eating their sno cones out of the holders they got Jeff for Father's Day.

June 20

The kids got out their bikes and Lance got out a board to "jump". Of course Allie had to try too. The child has NO fear!

June 19

Made our first trip of the season to the SnoCone Lady. I am not a huge fan of sno cones, but Jeff and the kids love them. Luckily, the wedding cake is delish, so I am happy to sacrifice for them!!

We got the kids water guns today. Jeff had to help make sure they worked. Look at Allie's face! She was out to get dad!!

I took the kids out a couple of days before to play in the yard and we could only find the Elmo sprinkler that is easily 7 years old. Obviously it doesn't work very well, so we got a new one.

June 18

Finally got to take the kids to the pool. They LOVED it!!

June 16

The kids made Shrinky Dinks for the first time. This was them checking them out after they came out of the oven.

June 15

Kind of a gross pic. This is the bee/wasp that stung my toe. Very, very uncool and painfull!!

June 11

We took Allie downtown for the Race the Bricks cirterium. We checked out a new restaurant and had a great Allie date night.

June 5

Jeff was fortunate to get tickets to the Texas Rangers game. It was supposed to be at 7:00 in the evening, but was moved up to 2:30 in the afternoon. If you have been to Texas in July at 2:30 in the afternoon, you can imagine how hot it was! At about the fifth inning, the kids were just about finished. Allie was crawling all over me and Lance was asking when it was over. Luckily, that was when we noticed the shade creeping over to us. About five minutes later, we were in glorious shade! They cooled off almost immediately and went back to having a blast. The seats were incredible. Ninth row, directly behind home base. We had so much fun!
