What we do all summer.....

My kids are turning into fish! All summer they have been swimming with me, or going to the lake with their dad. I am pretty jealous of their nice little tans they have gotten. Yesterday we went swimming with our wonderful friend Danielle and her sweet baby boy Jaden.





Then we headed to Double Dip for some YUMMY custard. I can't get enough of this place. They should dedicate a table in my honor since I am there so much. MMMMMM.....good stuff!

The kids all tuckered out from one long, fun day!!!!! Gotta love this part! :)

Cowboy Stadium


This afternoon my sister took myself and my kids along with her on a very VIP tour of the new Dallas Cowboys stadium. Let me first start off by saying this place was A-MAZ-ING!!!!! We were all like little kids in a candy shop. Mandy got an invitation for a private tour that started off with appetizers and an open bar.....FABULOUS! We ended up just giving ourselves a tour, which turned out to be much better than having someone take us around, because we went into rooms and places that we probably weren't allowed to go. OH WELL! I think the best part was finding the Cowboy's locker room! They haven't finished it all yet, so Blake decided to take a piece of the locker room carpet home. LOVE IT! He was cracking us up the whole time. He is a sneaky little one! They are having the American Idol audition there starting tomorrow morning, so we saw where they are holding all of the auditions. That was pretty neat too. Before our tour, we got to meet Stephen Jones....Jerry Jones son! Blake really wanted to ask him for season tickets. Wouldn't that have been the best. I am attaching tons of pictures. The stadium is not completely finished, but we had the best time touring it!


VBS....I'm late posting this one!


So, two weeks ago the kids went to vacation bible school. They had a great time learning about God and singing His praises. They made some really great crafts too! I love that they love to go to church and worship God! On the last day of VBS, they did a performance for all the parents. They sang all the songs they had learned all week. We even got a CD with the songs, and we still have to listen to it constantly. I love it though. I even sing along with them now!


Here is a video of Blake and Brooklyn singing part of one of the songs they learned!




These are pictures from the last day's performance:




Finding Treasures

On Monday we spent the day at Lee Lee's. She had just come back from a cruise to the Bahamas with her sisters and mother. She brought all kinds of treasures home for the kids. They always love going to Lee Lee's house after she comes back from a trip, because they know she always brings goodies for them. One thing she had saved for them from a previous trip to North Carolina, was a bag of seashore mine sand. It is a bag full of sand and hidden treasures like seashells, shark teeth, and sea glass. The kids had a blast finding all of the hidden treasures. Thanks Lee Lee for all the goodies!!!

We walked over to the AAC to see the great stand up comedy by the good lookin man himself, Dane Cook!!!! He was hilarious!!!! I am still laughin at some of his jokes. Then we headed over to Hully and Mo's to see our friend Lisa. Good times!!!!!!

Dance Recital

Last Saturday and Sunday Brooklyn had her dance rehearsal and recital at the Majestic Theatre in downtown Dallas. I absolutely LOVE seeing her dance, but I tell you what....those moms will push and shove to get the best seats! I feel like I need to take something for anxiety before I get there. That place is crazy! But of course Brooklyn completely ROCKED and did awesome! She is so full of life and loves to dance. That girl can really shake her hips. She cracks me up! I signed her up for jazz and hip hop next year, so we will see how well she can get down at the next recital. Should be interesting! :)
