Granny and Grandaddy Visit!

Before Granny and Grandaddy came to visit, we went to Maddie's birthday party, and saw my cousins and their families. Here's a pic of that:

We took Granny to the Library with us while she was here:

We had fun at home too!!

Plus we got to swim!!

Jenna Brushes her teeth

I had forgotten to post this last month. About the end of June, we remembered to buy Jenna a toothbrush - bad parents, right? Now it is her favorite activity!! This video is of the 2nd time that she got to brush her teeth - dad forgot to video the first time... As you can see she really enjoys it, and follows big sister's every move.

Daddy day with the Girls

Last week I took the girls to the mall for the morning/lunch. We were giving Mom some alone time (which she deserves!). We ate at the "little" tables in the food court. Megan had Pepperoni Pizza and Jenna had a kids meal from Chic-fil-a. Then we played at some of those quarter operated "rides" for kids - which cost a dollar now!! Next we went hat shopping for Jenna and didn't have any luck. Then it was over to the main playground for about 40 minutes of running around with other kids. After that we played on the escalators and then went home. It was a fun day of Daddy-daughter time!

Visit from Friends!!

The kids are having a blast this summer! After our trip to Nana and Papa's house in June, we had some friends over the first week of July. I've included some pictures of our kids playing at the Forth Worth Museum of Science and History. It was great to have wonderful college friends in town - people that "get" you and that you can really laugh with. Will is one of the few boys I can already "approve of" for my girls - he comes from good parents!

Birds in the Bed

Megan sometimes has vivid dreams and thinks they are real. Sometimes we think she just sleepwalks. Last night she came into our room and told Rachel that there was a bird in her bed. Rachel says the only thing in Megan's bed was her "Boots" doll. So, we don't know why but in the middle of the night we were awakened to "There's a bird in my bed". Hope we remember this one in 20 years.
