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:

Of course all my pics are in reverse order again! These are from Fri night.

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....

Tyler eating his crossaint (I have no clue how to spell that)

Drink, Anyone??

Well another weekend has gone by way too fast! We had great weather and the kids were loving it! Tyler would probably sleep outside if you let him and Lindsay just loves wondering around the yard and getting into things in the garage. We went on a few walks this weekend, went to the basketball court, grilled out, went to soccer, hit up our favorite store..Costco, and babysat our neighbor's 6 month old, Brayden, on Sat night. Here are some pics.

This pic cracks me up. Lindsay went into the kitchen while I was on the computer. She came back with a frozen bucket Mai Tai Mix and cups and kept asking me to have a drink! LOL! So of course I had to take a quick picture so that Trev would believe me!

Tyler peeking inside.
Saturday was beautiful. Lindsay is very curious about Tyler's 4 wheeler. So when he hoped off for a minute, she got on and was checking out all of the buttons.

Lindsay on the 4 wheeler again:

Tyler going on the little water slide we have:

Lindsay's turn...only she didn't actually go down, just would go to the top and then climb back down. Us females aren't as daring with freezing water!

Lindsay on the deck steps watching Tyler on the slide:

This pic is great. Tyler loves to pretend that his 4 wheeler is a golf cart. So he puts his clubs on it and drives around the yard and pretends to stop to tee off at 'holes'.

Lindsay is into picking up little stones/branches along the sidewalk. She's checking out one of her finds here:

So Sat night we babysat little Brayden while Will & Shanna went to a wedding. The kids had a blast with him. He was all smiles in the exersaucer:

Block Party Weekend - Spring 2009

We had a fun, busy weekend. Friday night Terry & Kery, our next door neighbors came over for dinner. They are moving to FL and left on Sunday. We will miss them tons!! Then on Sat we had soccer and our Spring block party. The kids had a blast. Tyler did great running around with his friends and snacking. Lindsay was also very good. She hung out with me and enjoyed seeing people and eating of course! Later we had a babysitter come so that Trev & I could hang out past bedtimes :)

Tyler & Terry on Friday night

Terry & Kery...we will miss you!!!!
