Super Hero Brothers

It's a Bird, It's a Plane, No it is Super Hero Brothers here to save the day! These brothers are not only cute but they are tough too. I bought these cute little capes off Etsy, they have their initial on the back, aren't they great! They have so much fun with them. You want one, go to Super Fly Kidz and get one!

Happy Birthday to ME!

Yesterday was my birthday and it was great! I spent the day with my boys and had lunch with Cheri and her gang (thanks again Cheri!). After nap we headed to meet Brad for dinner. We decided last minute to head to Hula Hut on Lake Travis. The boys had a blast watching the boats and water and Brad and I enjoyed a few drinks and a yummy fajita dinner. Brad and the boys got me a new IPOD Nano and arm band to use while I work out. I love it, thanks guys!

Great Site

I found this great site that I thought I would share! I was looking for something to count and track my calories on a daily basis and I found something better! It will keep up with your calories and if you don't know how many calories are in something they have this huge data base where you can look it up and it will do the math for you by how much you ate of a particular item. You also log all your activity for the day and it keeps up with how much you are burning. The site is Calorie Count Plus

Rockin River Rockin Fun!

We met one of Tyler's tball buddies and his brother at Rockin River on Tuesday. The boys had so much fun seeing each other again. Carter found him a new best friend in Brady!

We are off... what a great day at the water park

Father's Day

This year I had to work on Father's Day so we celebrated on Saturday. We went to my mom and dad's house for some fun in the sun. The kids and big kids aka Papa swam until they could not swim any more! We ended the day with some yummy Mexican food at Jardin Corona!!!! On Father's day morning we woke Brad up with breakfast in bed consisting of waffles, pineapple, and milk. I made it all the way up the stairs and to the bed without spilling the milk, but I will be damned if I didn't spill it as I was handing him the tray:( Oh well, he loved it anyway. Tyler had made him a card at the class he is going to on Fridays and they had picked out a golf card at Target a few days back. The golf card was perfect since we got him golf lessons at Golf Smith (Watch out Tiger!!!)Happy Father's Day to a wonderful daddy and husband!

123 Run With Me!

I signed Tyler up for a class, 123 Run with Me, at our local rec center and he had so much fun. It is only 3 Fridays from 9:30 to 12:30, but a great opportunity for him to get out and meet new people. He goes to a home daycare on Wednesdays that he has been going to for about 3 years or so now, but he never looks forward to going! When I pick him up he is running around having a blast, it is just the initial thought of being away from me that always makes him sad! So I was a little worried that he would not be up for doing this class, but he walked in like a big boy and went to work! He made Brad the cutest Fathers Day card while he was there. He is already looking forward to this Friday!

I want it ALL

I am at work right now at my friend's store and as I look around I am thinking to myself "I want it all" I have found a place for just about everything in this store in my imaginary new house!! Jon, the owner, is a friend of my brothers and was nice enough to let me work here one Sunday a month. My husband makes fun of me that I "work" 12 times a year, but I quickly remind him a mom works 365 days. Anyway, if you are in the market for some really cool, unique furniture and home accessories you have to come check him out. Tell him I sent you, not that it will get you a discount or anything, but maybe he will give me one!! Ha Ha just kidding!

Cheers!

We celebrated my good friend Kristin's Birthday with a happy hour at the domain. Kristin and I have been friends since our first year at SWT, we were next door neighbours in our dorm WRT! Wow that is 14 years. I also got to work with her at Encore for 6 years until I decided to stay home with my boys. Needless to say, Kristin and I share many great memories! So cheers to you Kristin and Happy Birthday!

How to stay cool when it is 100 degrees!!

It has been so HOT here lately and it is only June! Wow we have a long summer ahead of us. But that is ok, because me and my boys love, love, love to swim and play in the water! We took our first Sprinkler Park visit yesterday and boy was it a good way to cool the kiddos off and they had a blast.

Brothers!! gotta love them!

I was hoping the water would start shooting up, but they got lucky this time!

We Are Family

I got all my cousins, aunts and uncles with me!!!



The family reunion was a hit again this year. The boys had a blast swimming until they could not open their eyes anymore, Tyler almost missed dinner on Saturday night because I was a bad mom and let him go swimming instead of taking his nap. So we get back to our room around 5ish and he falls so hard asleep that Carter is screaming in his face and it does not even phase him! When we woke him to go take family pics and eat dinner he was not a happy camper as you will be able to tell from his swollen eyes. Brad played in the golf tourney, his team came in 3rd (out of 3 teams) but they had a blast as well. I got my message first thing in the morning, I could really get use to that. Even though we had to drive a total of 12 hours there and back it really was not that bad, or maybe not as bad as I had built it up to be. I look forward to 2010!

Off Again!

We are off again for yet another fun filled weekend. We have our bi annual (is that every other year or twice a year?? ours is every other) family reunion in Louisiana. We all go to Cypress Bend Resort in Many, LA. They boys and some of the girls play golf on Saturday morning while the rest of us visit, swim, or enjoy the spa! The spa is where I will be at 9:00 Saturday morning! I better go pack for our trip, we have a 6 hr drive ahead of us tomorrow!

What, Back to Reality Already???

No, I don't want to..... I guess all good things have to come to an end!! Brad and I had an amazing time in Miami visiting my brother, Chad. He was such a great host and tour guide! We arrived in Miami around 7ish on Friday night, Chad took us to a really good restaurant on Lincoln Road then we headed to a couple of his favorite hangouts. The next morning we woke up (slept in!) and hit the gym, we had to look good for the beach right?? We then spent the rest of the afternoon on the beach soaking up the sun and hanging out in the ocean. I was sooooo tired from the sun, but I had to be a trooper so we got dressed up and when to a really cool authentic Italian restaurant with Chad and two of his friends, by this time I am doing everything possible to keep my eyes open! We headed to the Delano for a few drinks before calling it a night! Sunday morning we headed to Nordstrom Rack for a little outlet shopping then back to Chad's pool where I fell asleep on the lounge chair, it was soooo relaxing!! Chad took us to Coconut Grove for dinner at Jaguars, very yummy! Brad was determined to get one more day at the beach in before our flight left Monday afternoon, so we woke up early and headed back to the beach! Thanks Chad for being so awesome and letting us stay with you, we had a great time and can't wait to do it all over again next year!!!
It sounds like our kids had an equally good time with their grandparents! Thanks Nana, Papa, Grammy and Grampa for staying with the boys so Brad and I could take a little vacation, hope they were not too crazy for you!
