AT THE BEACH WITH FRIENDS

We went to the beach on Friday. It was a perfect day for the beach. We went with Melissa and the kids and had so much fun. The water was a little bit cold but was still nice. It was so calm and the kids could just swim around and they managed to get a few rides on the boogie board. As usual they enjoyed digging in the sand and burying themselves. It was a really nice day.

SEA WORLD

We went to Sea World this past Thursday and had a blast. Our tickets are good for the rest of their year, so we plan on making a few more trips this sumer. Summer is going by so fast. The girls have been out of school for almost a month. Caleb was not as excited by Sea World as we thought he would be, but he did have a good time. He loved the Sea Walruses. There were two of them and both of them kept repeating these circle patterns and scratching their backs right on the window. It so so funny and neat. We went and viewed the dolphins under the water and it almost became an x-rated show, we thought we would have to take the kids and make a run for it, but I guess the female dolphin wasn't having any of it! We all really had a great time and can't wait to go back.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

We had so much fun getting ready for Father's Day. The kids all made cards for Tucker, even Caleb. Then we made him a banner. He got home in the morning from work and we had breakfast all ready for him. He had pretty much worked all night and was so tired, but he was a good sport. We went over to Megra and Papa's for a nice lunch. Then we came home and had dinner with Papa Louie. Caleb dished out the ice cream using his fingers and eating it at the same time. All in all it was a nice day. We want to say thank you to all the dads for being so great.

"Dad, Thank You."

Thank you for the laughter,

For the good times that we share,

Thanks for always listening,

For trying to be fair.

Thank you for your comfort,

When things are going bad,

Thank you for the shoulder,

To cry on when I'm sad.

This poem is a reminder that

All my life through,

I'll be thanking Heaven

For a Special Dad like you."

A DAY AT THE POOL

We've been to the pool a couple of days. We had a lot of fun. Breana and Regan even made some new friends, having fun doing their own thing. Meriah is braving it without her water wings, but she sticks close to the side. It won't be long though before she is off swimming all around the pool. Caleb has been so clingy and wouldn't let go of me, but today he decided he could do it all by himself. He was all over the pool, swmming from one end to the other. Emma just loves to be in the water, but it is a little hard to take pictures from in the pool. The last two pictures are actually from last month, but I went ahead and added them in.

CHUCK E. CHEESE'S

I thought I would put up our latest pictures from Chuck E. Cheese's and then I decided to find other pictures from before. I found a few. When I find others I will add them. We have made it a tradition to take our pictures whenever we go. Some of them turn out really cute.

Having Fun w/ Our Beautiful Baby Girl

We tried to get her to dance. It is the funniest thing. She use to do it all the time, but lately we haven't been able to get her to do it. But she loves Patty Cake. She is getting so big so fast. I can't believe she is going to be 1 in August.

Happy 30th Birthday Tucker

We went to The Melting Pot for Tucker's big 30th Birthday. We had a great dinner with great friends. It was a lot of fun!
