Summer trip to Galveston

So it was our annual trip to Galveston. We packed up and headed out and our first offical stop was none other than Buc-ee's! Poot was scared to take a pic with the beaver but Bub really liked him. He kept saying that he wanted to go see the monster, lol. :)

We headed over to Buc-ee's Outdoor to see the bears and the kids had fun. Livi was scared at first, but ended up liking the bears in the end.

I got attacked........they just didn't like the mamma!

When we finally got to galveston, we went to the beach but I didn't get any pics sadly. But I did get one last pic of the two babies sleeping from a long drive.

So Day 2 in Galveston was spent on the beach under a canopy that we got at Academy. Best $50 We ever spent!!! But it did not stop me from getting my usual burn of the summer. It seems that we all got a burn except Olivia...how is that??? I wish I had her skin!

Anyhow, after our long day at the beach, we took a nap and didn't wake up till six the next morning!!! How crazy is that? But we were refreshed and ready for the day so first thing was taking a trip on the ferry!

Then lunch at Fishtales. The Pleasure Peer was opening for Memorial Day Weekend and we got to see firsthand the rides and stuff being tested. I'm almost scared to think of how much it will cost to try it out. I'm sure I will be letting you know in a year or two. The kids will be big enough to ride hopefully!

Bub and I making funny faces!

We went for a walk and Bub insisted on picking me flowers. I love that! I feel so special that he wants to pick mama flowers like I did for my mom. :)

Poot and Bub picked flowers for me. :)

Bub wanted to give them a COLD drink of water since it was so hot!

Another sweet night of brotherly, sisterly love!

Mother's Day

So, I look forward to the little cards that the kids make me for Mother's Day at Daycare. This year I got a special treat....I got a flower too!

Another special thing is the sweet note from Noah AND his teacher, Ms. Chealsey. How cute is that?

We took my mom dinner that day too. I really should try to get out that way more.

Valentines Day

So, Noah picked out some cupcakes and candy bars for his class for Valentines Day. I so wanted to make something homemade, but I had three things due at school at the same time and I couldn't waste any time on making homemade treats. It makes me so sad sometimes when I can't be the mom I want to be. Hopefully when I do get out of school, I'll be able to have more time.

I made Dusitin a special bouquet since he got me a beautiful bouquet. I had intended to get some beef jerky and manly goodies, but I ran out of time. He said that it was the best valentines gift ever since we had been together! How great is that to hear? :)

I have this picture hanging up from when I worked at Home Care Network around 2006 and we got a sweet Christmas Gift and got to stay at the Gaylord Texan. It's just such a cute picture that I thought I'd share. Makes me feel more in love with him every time I pass by it. He looks just like his picture, but I noticed I looked like every other girl the guy drawed. Really cool. :) Everyone should have a characature done at one time or another!

Thank You friend!!!

So, my friend hooked my babies up with some gift cards...so I bought them each a mickey & minie mouse. Thank you friend. :)

What a man...

So, I've been busy with school, work, kids, and even more so...this shower for Abigail. I've invested so much time that I 've neglected my studies a bit. I worked last night and made sure I got up early enough to work on my school and get together Abigail's stuff for her shower. When I walked into the living room after my nap from work, I saw this...

How sweet is that? He watched the kids all morning and was still offering to help me with my homework! I didn't take him up on his offer and let him sleep, but how awesome is that? My husband is an awesome man! :)
