I LUV MY BOYS!

Cards & Smores

For Kades last night with us this

last time we sat out in the backyard

with a fire and played cards.

This is one of the boys favorite

thing to do.  

We put up this bird house and not

two hours later we already had 

some birds move in.  Ry wanted

to take this picture.

Dad and Cops were wrestling.

MMM...Smores!!!

My Boys

We went down to the train tracks

and got a few pictures of the boys.

These were my favorite ones.

My boys are so handsome!

Badges and Beltloops

Rylee had his ceremony to get his

belt loops from the event they had

at the Discovery Center.  He also

got his bobcat badge!  He has

worked very hard to try to catch 

up to the rest of his pack!

Happy Easter Good Friday

We decided to celebrate Easter

early before Kade leaves on Sunday.

The weather was so nice!  We cooked

out burgers, hot dogs, homemade fries,

and jalapeno poppers.  So Yummy!!!

We colored eggs and uncle KC

made a special one for Landree.

The boys love coloring eggs!

We still have to strip them down

because they get so crazy with the dye.

KC always makes a scavenger hunt

for the boys to find the gifts from

Nana & Grandpa.  They get so excited

when they find a new clue.  This year

the treasure was a basketball goal! 

We had a great time!  We are

so blessed to have such a 

wonderful family!!!

Our First Belt-Loop-O-Rama

Rylee had his first all day Scouting

event today at the Discovery Center.

There were SO many little boy scouts 

running around the place.  It was crazy!

He made a device that measures evaporation

for his weather belt loop.

They made and studied paper helicopters

for his science belt loop.

Here he is with dad trying it out.

And finally they made a drawing 

of a solar system and studied the

stars for his astrology belt loop.

I am so grateful that he has really great 

pack leader and he loves it so much!!!

Our Dallas Getaway

We took the boys to Dallas this past

weekend.  We were just going to go

to the Supercross, but I have always

wanted to take the boys to the Medieval

times.  I am SO GLAD we did!  It was 

amazing!  The boys LOVED it!

The outside of the castle was gorgeous!

It had the most beautiful brightest pink 

flower bushes, and almost the whole

castle was covered in ivy.  They had

a little pond in the front complete with

lily pads.  It was amazing!

 When you walked inside it was so neat.

It was just like stepping into a medieval

castle.  The boys thought it was the

coolest thing ever!

The characters were super friendly

and stayed in character the whole time.  

The executioner kept picking on Cody.

That's why his crown is in his face.  :)

 The food just sounded like a low key

no big deal meal, but it was so delicious!

The boys ate so much!

 The show was great too!  We were

in the blue section.  So we cheered on

our blue Knight.  The boys loved watching

them battle and do all the games.  We

all had a really great time!

The next day we went shopping at 

Grapevine Mills Mall.  The boys got 

to see the Easter Bunny and we

of course ate some yummy food at

one of my most favorite places...

The Rainforest Cafe!

 Then that evening it was time for the...

 We went a little early and got to get

Cody some autographed posters of

some of the riders.  They will 

go perfect in his room.

The Cowboys Stadium was HUGE!

Cody was so in his element!
He loved the whole thing.  This one 
was better than the arena cross we
watch here because we actually knew 
the riders.  Cody has a lot of the action
figures and posters in his room for these
guys.  It was very exciting to cheer on
your favorite rider.

And the winner is...
