Pirates and Princesses

I can't believe the triplets are 4 years old! We celebrated with friends and family in our backyard with a pirate and princess party. It was a warm day but fun was had by all.

2nd Annual Memorial Day Parade

The neighborhood kids and friends got together once again to have a memorial day parade through the neighborhood. We had more participants than spectators but it was still a lot of fun.

Bryce rode in style

Collin drove his truck but was obviously too fast for me to get a picture of him.

WHOOP!

We are so proud of our Aunt Lindsey who graduated from Texas A&M

with her bachelor and masters degree in accounting

Bryce Class of 2032

Collin Class of 2032

We celebrated with a crawfish boil with family and friends.

Addison was the only one brave enough to pick up a live crawfish.

Maifest is a great Brenham tradition and this was the first year the kids were able to participate. I wasn't sure how they would do but they loved it. They had fun playing with the other kids and it was a great way for them to take a step out of their comfort zone. The first practice they were a little shy and we had a few tears but after that they did great and enjoyed every bit of it.

The other was a glow in the dark hunt so I didn't get pictures of that.

The whole family

My sweet aunt and her boys joined us 

(and Joan whom I didn't get a good picture of)

My kids love their cousins

Going back a bit

Well I finally download pictures from my camera with pictures all the way from APRIL! That is not really like me but it has been a crazy couple of months. I'll try my best to recap the last few months and provide pictures that you all have been waiting for.

Collin, Addison and Bryce at their first soccer camp

 

 This was a fun day put on by the Washington County Soccer League and I thought we would take the kids to see how interested they would be in soccer since they can start playing in the fall. To our surprise Addison was the first one out there ready to play and participate. Collin cried for the first 30 minutes until Steven bribed him to go play. Bryce of course went with the flow, taking a few breaks. The coaches were awesome and in the end the kids all loved it!

The Houston Zoo

This week we have all been at home for spring break. The weather has been wonderful and we have spent a lot of time outside working on projects in the yard, the kids have played outside daily, and even went to the park for a little play time. Wednesday we joined thousands of other people and took the kids to the Houston Zoo. The kids loved seeing so many animals and we enjoyed watching their excitement! 

We saw the elephant get a bath

Collin was excited about the giraffes and practically ran from one exhibit to the next saying "let's go see the giraffes!"

Our three little Monkeys!

We saw turtles

and more reptiles than I would have liked!

Cowboys and Cowgirl

Our cowboys and cowgirl were so excited for their rodeo today!

Cowboy Collin

Everyday this week Collin would wake up and ask "Is today our rodeo?" This morning we told him "today is the rodeo and you get to wear your boots" and he grinned from ear to ear yelling with excitement. Such a big day for a little Frisky Frog!

Handsome Bryce

He had so much fun during the rodeo and really enjoyed the stick horse races despite a minor fall. He picked himself right up, kept smiling and continued to ride his horse to the finish line! 

Pretty Addison

She said her favorite was the wagon races!

 

I love to see Bryce so happy!
