Jack gets a strike.
Bailey gets a strike too!
My kids love to bowl. Think we might have to bowl for the next birthday party.
Jack also insisted on finishing his picture before eating his fries. If you know Jack, you know that fries usually take priority!
They both did a great job, but Jack's rainbow fish was very creative! 
Took the kids to see Despicable Me today. It was such a cute movie with lots of laughs. Jack laughed so hard throughout the movie. He LOVED it! People sitting around us commented how cute Jack was and that he certainly seem to enjoy himself. We'll definitely need to buy this on DVD when it comes out! 
Took the Sam Houston Boat Tour with the kids and some friends. The 90 minute tour took us on a leasurly cruise along the ship channel on the MV Sam Houston. We got to see the Port of Houston, lots of cargo vessels and the operations of the port's Turning Basin Terminal. The kids had a great time and learned a few things in the process.
Our family went out to eat at Outback last tonight. We haven't been there in what seems like forever, but we had a gift card and coupons (yeah). Jack is getting so much better at eating items from the menu and can't wait to get his food. When the waitress sat Jack's plate of chicken fingers and fries in front of him, I said "What do you say?" He looked up and told the waitress "That's what I'm talkin' about" and had a smile from ear to ear. The couple at the next table got such a kick out of this comment. On their way out, they came by and told Jack how cute his comment was. And to think, I thought he may never talk :0)
The kids LOVED the preshow with all the animals, performers and activities. They even had a circus themed Orange County Chopper on display. 
We both picked a fun blue color this time.
Just love spending time with my girly girl :0)
What a fun day of making memories.
HAPPY 4th OF JULY!
Jack is waving his flag too. It just didn't make it into the picture.
I love a parade. The kids enjoyed cheering for the parade participants. Especially the one who were giving out candy! Such a fun day!
Here are some of the yummy things I have made for this years 4th of July celebration. Can't wait to cut into the Red, White and Blue Fun Fetti Cake or take a bite of the pinwheel cookies. The kids will love fun star shaped marshmallows and snack mix. 
Here Bailey is with a ferret. 
Kids loved it!
July is here and so is the heat. We have had such a dry Spring that we are ten inches behind in our rainfall for the year. Alex hit land around the Mexican boarder today and we have been getting some much need rain from that storm. Last month, spent some time in Galveston, started space camp at my school and attended Galactic Blast VBS. The kids have learned a lot about the solar system and space. This month we have plans to tour the Houston ship channel, go to the circus and the pool.
