4th of July

We had a fun 4th of July weekend. It started out with Tyler being home sick on Thurs with croup. But luckily this time, it was a mild case. However, he made out well by getting a new bike that day. Friday we had a cookout at Marcy & Dustin's (forgot camera) and then went to the Dallara's for 4th of July cocktails once the kiddos were in bed.

On Sat, we went to a cookout at the McMahon's house. Nikki is my friend from the Brambleton Activities committe. Our kids are the same age, so it worked out nicely! The kids got to play and watch fireworks and had a great time.
Once again..the long weekend went by too quickly!!

Pool Fun / Freedom Festival

Monday night we went to the pool. They both really love going to the pool and after dinner on a week night it doesn't seem to be too crowded, which is nice!

Saturday night we had our Brambleton Freedom Festival. There are tons of rides, games, food, a band and fireworks at the end of the night. I sold tickets for 2 hours and then the family joined me. We had a ton of fun!
The kids loved the band..here's a shot of Lindsay dancing:

Tyler finally went on a ride without tears! I guess at 4 years old, he's finally ready!

The ride of choice. He even went on two times in a row!

Tyler loved this mini golf that they had set up:

Lindsay's attempt at Sneakiness

So I sit Lindsay down before leaving for school one day last week. She knows her yogurt is in my bag and goes for it...not realizing that I am not only watching, but I am taking a picture of her effort!

Ugh..oh. She's busted. She knows that I know that she has the yogurt!

I told her the horrible word of 'no' and took it away...and the tears begin. What's a little girl to do?

She has a plan....call daddy on my cell phone...maybe he will say 'yes'!!

Another Fun Weekend

We had another busy but fun weekend. Fri night started out with a random gathering of neighbors on our front lawn for a fun night. We started by celebrating with our new neighbors their first night in the house. Then it turned into a long evening!

Lindsay waving hi!

Tyler & Lindsay riding on the 4 wheeler together! It was her first ride. She just hopped on and LOVED it.
Gma & Gpa came up on Saturday for the night. This is before they left to go see the George Strait concert.

Love the next 2 pics. Lindsay and Gma were taking turns showing their tongues. Here's Gma's turn:Now its Lindsay's turn:

Tyler had his last soccer game on Sat morning. It was a nice treat to have Gma & Gpa there for his last game. Here's Tyler with his medal he got:Tyler's little Soccer Team:

Trev took this picture. He came out and the 2 of them were laying like this on the deck...so cute! They were actually watching a neighbor mow his lawn :)

Too Cute

Trev was golfing after work last night. So I got their favorite, Chick Fil A, for dinner and took a few pics last night since they were both all smiles. Thought I would share a few....
