If You Give Megan and AnneMarie a Party

The kiddos and I paid Megan and AnneMarie a visit during their Spring Break. We LOVE having them so close and being able to spend lots of fun times with them. MJ loves being outside in their backyard when we go. Here she is with Megan and Saul doin' some wheel barrel riding:
In the kitchen with Megan:
"Hanging" out at the Park:

A trip to Orange Leaf:
We went to the play "If You Give a Pig a Party" at the Magik Theatre. It was just as entertaining for us adults as it was for the kids. SJ was a little overstimulated, well we might have all been a little overstimulated. So fun!!


Eating at "The Cove:"
SJ loves pulling hair. When Saul would come around he would start shaking and kicking till he got a good hold:
The last day we were there, MJ decided to sweep their patio with this stick. It turned into a game of tug-o-war between Saul and MJ. Seriously entertaining to watch:
The dogs were showing us their tricks and MJ decided to join in the fun:
Thanks for the fun Megan and AnneMarie!!

Sami Time

Sami (DJ's sister) was able to come visit us during her Spring Break! Oh man, did we have a great time!

One day we went to Uptown Village in Cedar Hill:


Sami and I both ran in our first 5K while she was here. When we heard that they weren't handing out shirts for the race we decided to make our own. Here is Sami and MJ making MJ's shirt:


Sami won first in her age group. Wowie!! Go Sami!
We also took a trip to the Trader's Village - Largest Flea Market in Texas:
Rudy's BBQ - Of course:
And a trip to Six Flags Over Texas:








On her last day here we went swimming in Irving:

We were so happy to have her here with us! She just like another member of our little family.

Solly-Wolly

Solly-Wolly is what he is called these days. He just turned 6 months, and I cannot believe it. We simply love this little guy around here.

We took him swimming for the first time the other day:

He loves stuffed animals and his blankets. He frequently has a blanket over his head like this to keep him entertained:

Here he is holding a little Potato Head purse like a champ:





MJ did this:

After she did it, she said that he wanted to be "pretty."
He is simply the sweetest little guy. He brings so much joy to our home.
