Spring Break


Here is how our Spring Break went...In pictures.  
A lot of pictures!

SATURDAY...
Zak and Colton played in the rain.  
(Only got video of that not a picture.)

SUNDAY...
Look who decided to CRAWL!
MONDAY...
Big Brother had a tummy bug.  Thankfully it was very very short lived.
TUESDAY...
Was a busy day.
It started with breakfast and shopping with Nanny.
And more shopping with Gaga, PawPaw, Pa, Tay Tay and Robbie.
And dinner with everyone.
Daddy was out with friends so we played hard when we got home with presents everyone spoiled the boys with.

WEDNESDAY...
We needed a day to recoup from shopping so we stayed home and played, played, played. 
THURSDAY...
Started with grocery shopping.
and ended with more playing.
FRIDAY...
We got up early and got donuts because Colton didn't put up a fight going to bed the night before.
And we played.
 Nanny came over with lunch.
Then Mommy had a girls night at the Rodeo.

That's fried Oreos, a funnel cake, fried Nutter Butter, and fried Snickers.
Yum!

SATURDAY...
We got up early and started working in the yard. 
We went to the landscape yard and Colt loved watching daddy's truck get filled up with rocks!


Saturday night we met up with Nanny and Grandad for a very windy dinner at Willies.

SUNDAY...
We had to go back to the landscape yard.
This time it was time to fill up with mulch.
 Colton sure worked hard!
We ended the day early on Sunday and the boys played in the bath 'til they were wrinkled.
There were no wild party's, trips to the beach, or crazy nights out but it was a perfect Spring Break at home with family enjoying each other!

Best.Weekend.EVER.

This past weekend was 
the.best.weekend.ever!

It started at Onion Creek for Friday Night Dinner with Nanny, Grandad, and Baa.


 Saturday morning we got up and dressed and headed to Chases first Livestock Show (and Colton's 4th).

 Colt picked out his own Cowboy hat.

 Love this picture!

 Dippin' Dots for brunch.



 Colton NOT shooting a bow.
 Watching mutton busting.  
We'd love Colton to do this when he turns five but he had a very serious conversion with Baa at Friday Night Dinner where he told her,  "That doesn't sound like something I'd ever want to do." He enjoyed watching it though.

While we were watching Mutton Busting he spotted a man with a funnel cake and just had to have one.  Funnel cake for lunch!
This might be as close as he gets!
 
 And for the favorite part of the trip...
the tram back to the car!

 Saturday, after a fun day at the Rodeo Zak's parents came over and watched the boys and Zak and I enjoyed a really nice, long, quiet dinner at Taste of Texas.
 Sunday morning we took the boys (well Colton) to the Lego store in the Galleria. It was much smaller than we expected but awesome none the less.  Zak and Colton were in HEAVEN.  


 We couldn't leave with out a trip to Dillon's Candy Bar.
 Chase just loved being along for the ride!
Here is Colton's Cup-o-Legos!
 Sunday afternoon and evening we spent some time in the front yard with the neighbors.

 It really was 
the.best.weekend.ever!

Foundry Rodeo

This week the kids are learning about Texas at school.  Colton had his first homework assignment.  Create a boot.  
He decided he wanted to paint his boot.  He was so excited about getting started.
 He did a great job! (There is a white C on there.)
 There is his boot hanging outside of his class.
 Today he got all dressed up for a Rodeo with Mrs. Barb (his music teacher).
 Here he is with his class. (Very center.)

 That's Wilston, his BFF.
 This is how Colton stayed the whole time.  Wilston was trying to sing and participate and Colton turned to him and called his name and giggled the whole time.  

 Here is Daddy helping out at the end.  Colton got all shy when Mrs. Barb asked for parents to come up.  He wouldn't even walk over to Zak,  Mrs. Leeanne had to drag him over.

 These programs at Foundry are creating memories that will last forever.  
I'm so thankful both Zak and I can be there for it all.
I love this little COWBOY!
