Alabama/Florida

At the end of July we went on vacation with David's family to Destin, Florida. Bryant loved the sand, but wasn't crazy about the water and Parker didn't really care for either one. They both loved the hotel room. It was a great vacation and we really enjoyed getting to visit with everyone!













Parker's first Astros Game!

This was Parker's first Astros game. He ate cheetohs and watched the game...we also got to enjoy the awesome fireworks show at the end of the game.












Summertime

Here are a few pictures from this summer. I didn't take as many as I wanted too.













"Everybody has a little captain in them!"

Dollywood/Monster truck Ride

This was Bry's first time to a theme park and he loved it...he and Maddie rode all of the kiddie rides! We liked being kids again and riding the rollercoasters...Laci was a rockstar and rode them all...she rode them like 8 times each. We also took Bry to ride a Monster Truck because he LOVES them, but he was sick so I don't think he enjoyed as much as he would have.










Tennessee Trip

Here is a little about the trip...3 cars, 10 adults, 5 kids, 2 GPS systems and a trailer...after 14 hours on the road we finally made it to Alabama, the kids were troupers and did an excellent job! Except that night Parker decided that he HATED the hotel room and cried ALL night long; mom ended up sleeping in the car with him because it's the only place where he wasn't screaming. The actual vacation part was so great and the cabin we stayed in was AWESOME! We enjoyed the beautiful scenery, but our FAVORITE thing was catching fireflies...there were so many! Bryant ended up having a bad case of hand, foot, and mouth disease but overall he was excellent considering how much pain he was in. The trip home was great too and didn't take quite as long. We enjoyed getting to spend time with everyone!!
