Summer Fun

Well, I'm gonna be honest....the reason why I haven't blogged in about a week is because I'm addicted to reading other peoples blogs. lol! Some of them are so interesting that I get sucked into them. It's like you read one and then go to the next one.....then the next one....and so on. I just can't stop.

Anyways.....

We had tons of fun today with Keri. We played dress up all morning. It was so awesome! She made Maely a few more outfits that I absolutely LOVE!
Last weekend we took a short trip to Huntsville Alabama. It was fun. We took the kids to a rocket center. They had a blast! They came home with these adorable suits their papa got them.

The park ranger outfits totally crack me up! They wanted to wear those everywhere. (rotflmao)The kids had fun riding all the rides too.

By the end of the day the boys couldn't keep their eyes open. They were wore out!Here is Jack sleeping while waiting in line for a ride. Poor baby!

We also went to this place that was so cool. It was called Unclaimed Baggage Center. It's where all the lost luggage from airports go. Let me tell ya they have everything. I could have stayed all day in that store. It was like a huge consignment store. The boys were in heaven because they had hundreds of video game stuff.

Last but not least here are a few of Maelybug on the trip.

*****TEAR*****

Well, my two super heroes were off to preschool today. It was Jack's first day. He was really excited. (me not so much) I decided I would let them go a couple half days this summer to let Jack get used to it. I'm sure he'll be fine since Reed is with him.

So, while the boys are at school I thought I would try to get some things done today since we are leaving for another mini vacation tonight. BUT....it's kind of impossible with these two.






They are into everything. I pack.....they unpack....I turn around they are pulling stuff off of everything...couch....cabinets....countertops....

Once they were done playing for the morning this thing happened to them.........it was like a monster took over both of the girls. It started out kind of like a cat fight.....alot of hair pulling, scratching, hitting. Huh....kinda like me and my sisters when we were little. (well, like jessica and brittney, I would never do that to my sisters....ever :)

Looks like someone really made this little one mad. She was throwing a "mommy fit". Kicking and screaming........Ha! The funny thing was.....I couldn't help but laugh at both of them. :)

Hi Mommy!

Hello, this is Brianna. I'm hanging out at my "auntie ann's" today. I know my mommy is stalking her blog, so I decided I'd give her a shout out! HEY MOMMY! We snuck out and went to Mrs. Keri's to play dress up. It was so much fun. I love it! Maely and I tried on a super adorable outfit Keri made. (mommy, I HAVE to have this one) Don't you just think these are my colors? I thought so too! I could totally wear my gold sandals with this outfit. Auntie ann tried to get some pictures of us but we were way to fast for her.

If anyone else is out there reading my post you should really check out Keri's blog. http://kbocustoms.blogspot.com She has some really cute, adorable, neat stuff. She's so talented!

After we left Mrs. Keri's house we came home and I ate macaroni and cheese. My auntie ann makes the best ever! Yummo! I'm getting ready to lay down and take a nap now mommy. You can go back to work now. But, one thing.....when you come to pick me up can we go get a snow cone? Pretty please......k.....I knew you would say yes!

love always,

Well, we made it back from our vacation. At the last minute last week Casey decided he needed to go work on a house that we have with his parents in Key West. He's remodeling it and getting it ready for us to go and have a place to stay in the Keys. He tries to go whenever he gets a chance to. So, we packed up and drove 20 hours......yes 20 hours with the kids. They were actually really good. I was suprised.

Once we got there Casey had to start slaving away. :( He worked as soon as he got up in the morning all the way into the night. He has a lot to do to get it done.

As for me and the kiddos...........well, this is what we did....

We were at the beach every day. It was really relaxing. We loved it!

When we weren't at the beach we were swimming in the pool at the hotel.....hanging out with this guy.....

He was out there everyday. (yes, he was very very creepy)

The key that we stayed on was called Big Pine Key. They have these deer there that are EVERY WHERE. They're called Key Deer. Everywhere you went you had to watch out for them. They rome the place like dogs do here. Instead of dogs they have deer. They were actually really annoying. They would walk down the rode right in front of your car.....in s l o w motion. They would walk beside people walking down the road. It was strange.

We were sad when it was time to pack up and leave. I could seriously stay down there for a while. It was so pretty. Everyone is so laid back.

On our way home we decided to stop in Tennesse and take the kids to a few places. The boys and Casey really like old cival war battelfields. They like seeing all the different stuff in the museums. Ummm...Maely and I......not so much. The first thing the girls do is go to the gift shop to see what we can buy. Only because we need to feel like we are shopping and not in a Cival War zone. Anyways, after hanging out in the gift shop, Maely and I took a stroll and I got some really cute pictures of her.

I can't close this post without a couple more of the boys.
