Texas Fun!

Spencer got to do an externship in Texas while the rest of us got to PaRTy. Spencer's externship was 2 weeks long so me and the boys decided to meet up with him the 2nd week in Texas. The 10 hour drive down was a little tricky by myself but we made it. It was worth the drive because we had so much fun hanging out with our Texas cousins.

Road Trip

Pet-Co stop... this is something we would have never done had Spencer been with us. (Spencer is a go go goer when it comes to road trips) People probably thought we were weird for still being in our P.J.'s at 1 in the afternoon.

Beckham loved all the animals and thought is was the BEsT thing ever until we had to get back in the car.

Bounce House

We had so much fun at the bounce house! The best part is that parents don't have to pay to get in but you can go down all the rides if you want.

Obviously Spencer was all about riding the rides with the kids.

All the kids loved it! We managed to make it out of there with all 8 kids still in one piece.

Date Night

We put the kids to sleep and got babysitters and had a night out on the town in the Sweet minivan. We went to this awesome Fork & Screen where you have dinner while you are watching the movie. So FUn!!!

Hanging Out

Is that an alien or Ava? So cute...

Bath time... I don't think we could've fit one more kid in there.

Cookies before bed... it really was vacation.

Zoey is lovin all the attention.

Stockyard Parade

We went to the stockyards to watch the St. Patricks day parade. Kelan loved the horses and the longhorns. What more could you want to see while visiting Texas?

A true cowboy at heart.

Impossible to get everyone looking. It was a good try.

Here come the longhorns.

Twinners

My personal fav...

Yee haa!

Good times in Texas!

V-day & B-day

For v-day I made a little treasure hunt for the boys to go on and Kelan loved it! Beckham loved all the candy along the way and was stuffing his face as fast as he could. I love these boys so much and am so glad I got to have three of the SWeeTesT valentines.

Happy birthday Ansley! Ansley, T.J. and Cohen came for the weekend to hang out and while they were here we celebrated Ansley's belated birthday. We also found a few fun things to do while they were here.

More Zoo fun!

We have had so much fun at the zoo and it is so fun seeing Beckham getting more into the animals. He loved chasing the turtle back and forth and pointing to it. Kelan is always wanting to know "WHY" everything is that way... this always makes zoo trips fun.

Love these boys

Bekham loves the fish.

This picture was his idea... I think I am rubbing off on him with all the cheesy pictures.

Beckhams good bud the turtle. He was so mad when I made him go.

Beckham is our little dare devil. He loves climbing on everything.

Kelan made a Jelly fish at school for the letter J so he thought these guys were pretty cool.

Love those cheeks.

Fun Visitors!

We love it when we have special visitors especially T.J., Ansley and Cohen. We always have so much fun hanging out with these guys. We did a lot of hanging out inside because of the awful weather but we did make it out a few times...

Trip to the ZoO

The best part about our Zoo is that you can go year round. It is definitely nice to have something to go do when it is in the single digits.

This picture cracks me up...

Monkey boy Cohen and Ansley

Snow day

The school closed early one day because of the weather so Spencer got to have a snow day with the boys.

Cohen wasn't sure about the freezing weather.

Beckham just got over a cold so he only got to watch.

Trip to the Mall

Kelan got some money from his Papa for Christmas and spent it all at the first store we went to. Kelan saw the Car umbrella and said "oh mom look it's a brella... Santa forgot to bring this to me from his workshop." It was pretty funny. Thanks Papa!

Beckham and Cohen cruisin together.

Hanging Out inside

Playing...

Eating...

... and bathing.

Happy Birthday Beckham!

All I can say is WOW time sure does fly by. It is crazy that our little Becky Boo is now ONE. He is getting SO big. We love this little guy to death! He is so much fun and sure keeps us entertained along with his big brother. Some of Beckham's FAVORITE things to do are play peek a boo, play on the computer, clap his hands, EAT, dance, play in the bath, climb up the stairs and pretty much follow Kelan around everywhere he goes. Beckham really is the best and we wouldn't trade him for anything. We LOVE you Becky Boo!

PARTY, PARTy, PaRTy!!!

For Beckham's birthday we went to McDonalds for breakfast, Pizza Machine for dinner and had friends over for desert. It was a pretty fun birthday day and Beckham loved it all. Kelan keeps asking if Beckham can have another birthday.

Deliciousness....

The Pizza Machine with all you can drink Slurpee's and much more... Thanks Stephen and Afton!

Bella and Beckham... what a cute couple.

Beckham loves his Aunt Annie.

Racin the car.

Cohen and Beckham... best buds!

Wasn't very impressed with our singing...

Needed a little help from his sweet older brother.

So careful...

That lasted about 2 seconds... pretty messy eater.

I guess we know who Beckham gets his messiness from.

Katie and Bella

GOT MILK?

Beckham LOVED all of his presents THANKS so much... you are all too nice.

Happy Birthday Beckham! We LoVE you lots!
