Brooke on the trampoline

This past weekend we were so excited to get to visit our cousins in Louisiana. Brooke absolutly adores Her cousin Emma Claire and Carson . Not to mention its always fun for me too because I have such an awesome Sister in law over there . I was thankful to get to ride with my mother in law. The ride wasn't bad because I got to catch up on the girl talk. The party was a blast. They had two big moon walks. Brooke loved going down the slide. She loves the trampoline too. I did make the cake, and it was some work .We had a cake-tastrophe!! I totally cried,but we made it, and the cake turned out super cute for a totally cute and sweet little princess who turned four!! Congrats Emma Claire we love you!!

Mom and Dads Escape!

After a long night at Six Flags, Jared and I went up to Oklahoma and checked out a few sites. It was really fun. We hiked up on some trails in some different places. We first went to Chickasaw National Park and went through some natural springs. The water was of course cold and beautiful. Crystal clear. It was fun to be out outdoors and not feel like we were melting. Not to mention the scenery was beautiful. After that we went up and saw An antique Tractor show. It was hilarious, I felt so country watching these tractors race... to see who could idle the slowest. We walked around and checked out all the tractors. I've never seen so many old people in overalls!! Good country Folk, all of them so nice! Then we headed up to Turner Falls Park. It was awesome! We are taking the kids next time because they have a ton of shallow spots to let the kids splash around in. They had a huge slide and just a great out doors area! We stayed over night in a little cabin and Slept in! Yeah, but we still got up at 8, but that was sleeping in! Thanks Mom and Dad for watching the kiddos!

Jared actually jumped in the freezing water!

Me and the Tractor!

Don't look away you might miss the race!!

Frito Lay Six Flags Day!!

We went to Dallas because my Dads company rents out six flags and has a private party. They provide you with 10$ spending money per ticket and you can get Pepsi and Frito Lay products all over the park complimentary. It was way fun Brooke was hilarious to watch. I really wanted to take her on this kids roller coaster but Brooke was still a little too short. They have all these rides she can go on by herself so it was fun too watch her be a little more independent. We were lucky we went with my parents too. Jared and I got to go on a few our self. It was fun to feel like a big kid again. I don't have the stomach like I used too. I have to be more careful about the rides we go on. Jared just makes fun of me, but I'd rather that then be sick the rest of the time. Caleb really is such a good baby. He just sat in the stroller checking out all the colors and events going on.

Super MOM!!

I could barely watch them do this one!!

This plane was funny because you control the plane going up and down. Brooke kept looking at the other kids up in the air and didn't understand why she wasn't going up. She finally got it at the end though. She was so proud!

Caleb and the Grandparents

Brooke on the swings, We did this like 20 times. There was no wait and she loved it.

This ride goes up and makes a bunch of short drops. She cracked up at it!

We had a Blast! Thanks for letting us come Dad!

Sleeping Boys

Jared was taking care of Caleb and was feeding him. He kept dozing off while he was feeding him and the bottle would drop. I kept telling him I would do it but he reassured me he was fine and not tired at all. This was the end product! Love it!!

Playing with Daddy

Brooke is insanely jealous when Jared picks up Caleb. She freaks out and gets all in his face. It is really funny to watch because she wants him to pay attention to her.







She tries to push Caleb off and she will even point at the floor and say "cacub" meaning she wants him to put Caleb down. I think she has just gotten used to it with me but she still has her moments. They both get plenty of time to play with their dad!

My Birthday!

I turned 25 on the 9th. It is so weird. I used to always be the youngest, now I'm not. Although, I still think of myself as being 18 still. No longer in my early twenties!!! I feel pretty happy with life so that's a good thing. I am blessed with a wonderful husband and two beautiful kids. We went to New Braunfels and floated the river with Nick and Hillary. It was so much Fun!! Thanks for hangin with us! And a huge thank you to my awesome Brother and sister in law who watched my kids for the whole day. I really love them. Jared made me a cookie cake on Sunday. He may not have the decorating skills but it was cute. Plus he couldnt find any candels so this is Jareds make shift version.

It took him a little bit to light. Brooke was so cute, she kept telling me " happy day mommy" and she sang happy Birthday. She really is growing up!!The only bad thing was both my kids were up all night so I was totally exhausted. Gotta love being a mom. Birthdays are just not the same anymore. All and all it was a fun weekend.

Cake decorating

I decorated some cupcakes for one of my friends and Brooke got to join in on the fun. It was hilarious and kept her occupied while I did my thing. When I was done and got things cleaned up I put them all on the table watching her like a hawk. A few times she brought me a cupcake and said"cu cu mom",Hoping they were all not destroyed. They made it to their destination, although I did have to remake one.
