Life Lately

 We have been busy busy busy lately!  Lots of pics to catch up on!


Playdoh fun on a rainy afternoon

 Heading to school on a rainy morning.

You'll start to notice a theme here...




Loving playing outside one afternoon when it wasn't raining!


Cheers!

Bennett enjoys trips to Target!

Rainy day fun - cookie making!

How Bennett prefers to watch a show!

Yea for sunshine!



Trent got home early Friday afternoon and took Bennett on his run...

While Graham and I went to Spec's and Escalantes to pick up dinner!

Cheers to a new summertime drink!

Cuddles on the couch before bed

Saturday morning started with a trip to the dr for Graham after running a low grade fever, runny nose, cough, and he threw up once.  He was diagnosed with an ear infection, we got meds, and he was doing so much better very quickly!

So we decided to run a few errands.  Bennett wanted to ride here in the car.

Helping Daddy at work

Cute helpers

Lunch at Mia's!
Graham was feeling so much better and ate all of his lunch and half of Bennett's.

And it's raining again - at least they look cute!

Trying out his new sunglasses for the beach!

Sunday afternoon sunshine

Painting birdhouses



 Red paint in the hair

Hanging out in our room on Monday evening!

Silly boy!  Elmo goes with us EVERYWHERE.


Poor B is getting 4 new teeth right now.  They are so sharp and pointy.  Only 2 have broken through.  I hate teething.

Playing Hungry Hungry Hippos after B went to bed!


Last day of MDO!

Bennett wanted to be in the picture too!

Walking in with some friends

Oh how I love these 2 teachers and am so thankful or them!  They were absolutely perfect for Graham this year!  Ms. Raley and Ms. Ghaida

What a difference!  I can't believe how much he's grown this year!

Sleepy boy needed a car nap at 10am.

I think it's time for a bigger helmet...

His new favorite thing to do right now, puzzles!

A last day of school treat at Sonic!

On Wednesday night our babysitter came (Trent was out of town), and I got to go out with two of my best friends!  It was just what I needed!  We had yummy crepes at Sweet Paris.  And I had time to do a little shopping beforehand.  Such a fun night!

 A strawberry and nutella crepe!  Yummy!

Sweet Jo and baby girl that we can't wait to meet in a few weeks!

Love these girls!  

Our splash pad play date got rained out yesterday morning so we ended up playing at Stephanie's house!

Sweet friends!

Rain rain go away!  We are ready for some sunshine!
Happy Friday!

Sea World and San Antonio!

We left last Thursday during nap time and drove to San Antonio.  The boys were so excited to go to Sea World, and we stayed at the JW Marriott.  It was the perfect hotel for us!  We were at the kids pool within 30 minutes of getting there.

Ready to play!







Of course Bennett wanted to go down the slides with Trent! 


Happy boy!


And our special treat for the night was having Uncle Justin came have dinner with us by the pool!

And then they played and played in the sand!

 Friday morning we were up bright and early and ready for a fun day!
Mimi and Grampy met us at our hotel, and we headed to Sea World.  We got there right when they opened and stayed until 3.  We saw some fun shows, ate a good lunch, the boys rode some rides, and we had a blast!


Ready for the Sea Lion show!








Feeding the fish and alligators!

But of course Bennett wanted to feed the quack quacks!

 Riding the ferris wheel!


And Elmo!!  Bennett was in Heaven!

Watching the dolphin and beluga whale show





And then the pet show.  Bennett almost fell asleep but he fought through it!




We had an ice cream treat on our way out! 
The boys napped the 45 minutes in the car on the way back to the hotel, and then they were ready for more swimming!

 They went down this slide at least 100 times.

We had dinner again by the pool and played at the beach before calling it a night.

Silly Bennett playing before bed.

My cute breakfast dates at the Starbucks in our hotel on Saturday morning

And then more play time at the beach!

My Saturday morning view!  Mimi playing with the boys while I enjoyed my coffee and a comfy lounge chair!

Of course Bennett wanted to drink my coffee with me!

We checked out, ate lunch at The Alamo Cafe, and then hit the road home.


You know it's been a good trip when this is what both boys looked like within 5 minutes of leaving!
