Wordless Wednesday

Last Saturday we headed to Sea World with Andy's sisters and families! We had a great time!

After Sea World we dropped the kids off with Pa and Ma for the week.  They are having a blast but man do we miss them!

Florida invasion!

Uncle Daryl, Aunt Randi, and baby Alex are in town for a couple of days and we are so excited to get to spend some time with them.  We all met at Rosa's tonight for dinner!

Wordless Wednesday

First Day of School!

 I can't believe school has started again!  Savannah was so ready for the first day that she woke up at 4 am telling us she was ready!

 Look at how big she looks...one more year and then off to Pre-K! 

 Unfortunately I got a call that she was running a fever and had to be picked up.  She stayed with Mommy at school today and heads back tomorrow!

 Bruce was so cute and ready for school...he was not so thrilled once we got there but they said he did really good!

Here's to a great year and only 188 days until Summer!

Savannah's 4 year old pictures!

 I can't believe my sweet baby girl will be 4 in 3 weeks! Since we have a nice camera and I am learning to take photographs I decided to take our own pictures this year.  I think they turned out pretty cute...maybe in a couple weeks we can head somewhere besides the back yard and take some more!  Of course we also had to get some handsome pictures of Bruce as well!

 This is my favorite but she looks so grown up!

 They were laughing at me :)

Catching up in Pictures!

 Before I left for California we were able to enjoy some time with Nana, Papa, Uncle Ryan, and Addisyn at coaching school!

 This weekend Pa, Ma, and Papaw came to visit and help with a few things at Uncle Rob and Aunt Amy's house as well as our house.

 Bruce enjoyed sitting on the couch with Ma and Papaw...

 while Savannah enjoyed playing dress up!

 Once Bruce was done on the couch he moved to wrestling with Aunt Amy

 Me and my girl still playing dress up

 Sunday after church we enjoyed lunch at Uncle Rob and Aunt Amy's new house.

 Savannah and Papaw

 Bruce and Ma

 My hubby and in laws!

 We also tried to get some cute pictures on their porch swing but they didn't really want to cooperate :)

 These were the best we could get :)

 And finally Rob and Amy Crowl's new home!  It is beautiful and we are so excited to have many memories made inside!

 We love you guys and are so excited for you!

Jill and Claire's California Adventure!

Last week Jill and I flew to California for 4 days!  It was amazing and I loved every minute of it!  This was my first time to California and Jill and her family/friends planned to show me as much as possible. I can't wait to go back! 

 This is Jill and I in the COLD Pacific ocean...sorry I can't figure out how to turn the picture.

 The first morning we went with Jill's grandparents and Dad to eat breakfast.  They have got to be the cutest couple and still going strong at 91 years young! 

 After breakfast her grandparents were the perfect tour guides and drove us around a Mission, Doheny Beach, and Dana Point.  The picture above is the Dana Point Harbor...this is where Jill grew up. Be jealous...I was. 

 Later in the afternoon we headed to Laguna with Jill's mom and stopped by an art studio.

 Laguna Beach

 We went to the local Sawdust festival and had a great time.  It has tons of local artist.  We loved walking around and looking at all the art.

 This is the wishing well at the festival...below is Jill and her mom! 

 One of the "Laguna" things to do is get toe rings.  So we did...Jill has always had toe rings but needed some new ones.  The put you up on a bench then put Windex and Vaseline on your toe to slide the rings on. 

 After a lot of walking we went and sat on the beach for a couple of hours...I could do that all day long!

 This is Donna's car! 

Wednesday night we headed down to the beach for a bonfire.  It was the perfect night...full moon, clear skies, and around 70 degrees.  I was wearing a sweatshirt and jeans and was still a little chilly.  Of course we also made S'mores :)

 Thursday we headed down to San Diego with Jill's friend Halley! 

 The sea lions

 Isn't this beautiful!

 Of course we had to make a quick stop by the Padres field.  

Thursday we walked around San Diego and then went to an amazing diner that was on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives.  I had my first fish taco and I loved it!  We then went downtown with Jill's friends, sister, and Mom and went to a piano bar.  SO MUCH FUN!  just didn't take any pictures :(

 Friday morning we were sad to leave but were able to get a couple of quick things in...like cross off a 30 before 30...drinking coffee for the first time.  Man I look tired in this picture!

 Jill and her neice...Arwen

 Texan's can Never complain again

 This is a famous hotel in Coronado...I think it is call Del something

 The Coronado beach

 I loved this flower

 Putting our feet in the water

I also had my first crepe...Nutella and Banana...amazing!  

Thanks to Jill and her family/friends! I had a great trip and can't wait to go back!

I would also like to say a BIG HAPPY 27th BIRTHDAY to my Best Friend! Jill I love you and am so thankful for you in my life...You are a gift from God and I loved our trip...Thank you for everything!
