Six Flags over Texas

I received some free tickets through school so we thought we'd try it out. I mean hey, free tickets... if they hate it, all we paid for is parking! Anyway, we got there and they were so excited. We started off on the Wyle E Coyote roller coaster to see how they would do. They LOVED it! We then hit the log ride, La Vibora, Judge Roy Scream, Roaring Rapids, and ended the day with Splashdown! I was so impressed with the rides that they rode! Jacob wanted to ride The Texas Giant but missed it by a couple of inches. I don't have any pics to share because I was riding the rides with the kiddos. I tried to get them to take pics with the characters, but they were too scared! Funny... they were scared of the people in costumes but not the roller coasters! We're definately going back next year!!

Happy 4th of July!!

Our neighborhood had their Independence Day Celebration this past Saturday. Jacob & Jordan both decorated their bikes and rode in the parade. The theme this year was "An Old Fashion American Picnic". We made it through the parade before a big storm blew in and cancelled out all the fun bounce houses and slides. We figured the fireworks would be rescheduled but around 9:20 they started going off. The kids and I got up and went to watch from our backyard... in the rain! They enjoyed the fireworks and I enjoyed watching their eyes light up as each one went off. Oh to be a child again!!

Jacob's Preschool Graduation

Well it's official... Jacob is no longer a pre-schooler... he's a future kindergartner! His class ended the year with a little graduation ceremony. They sang 3 songs, did little dances with the songs, received awards (Jacob got the "Hard Worker" award), and watched a slide show of their year. It was very cute!! *sniff*

The Big T-Baller

Jacob just completed his 1st season of t-ball. He played on the Astros. He was quite the little slugger and by the end, was fielding the balls pretty well too! He loved to play pitcher because he said "that's where all the action is!" Now it's on to flag football!
