Memorial Day

The slide show below is of our adventurous Memorial day. We had a picnic with our friends from the branch. WE went to one park but it was so full.. and the parking RIDICULOUS that we ended up at a different park that was just as beautiful and fun. The boys got to feed geese (who were very protective of their babies so they would hiss, stare us down, and even chase us). They got to watch the train go by (like Grandpa Ricky rode on (Austin's words)), play on the playground, and play in a huge sandbox that they loved. But the cherry on the sunday was the SPRINKLER PARK. Austin loved it and had fun playing there with his friends Connor, Brooke, and Willem. Mason wanted nothing to do with all that water spraying everywhere and the crazy kids running through it. But it was fun to watch his CRAZY brother get soaking wet. Although we were missing our family we ended up having a fun filled fantastic day with our friends.

SPLASH...

We went to the mountains last night to play in the river. The boys had tons of fun.. Austin even cried when we left. While we were up there we skipped stones in the river, threw mud (Mason), and went wading. Mason even went wading in shoes and he decided that he wanted to try out fishing like a duck and face planted into the water. We thought after his reaction that we would have to leave but to our astonishment our little guy wanted to go back for more over and over again.

IN MY EYES....

OK... So I do think that David Cook is an amazing artist and he deserves to have the title of American Idol but I also believe that is true of David Archuleta... and my vote went to David Archuleta. So David Archuleta was, is, and in my eyes will be the AMERICAN IDOL from 2008. He was just so amazingly talented. He could sing anything and I loved the way he would change a song and it still sounded amazing, not like when most people change a song and you cringe... he could actually do it.

Uncle Bunny's Treasured Visit

Poor little Austie still talks about how Bunny is going to do this with him and do that with him, and how he did this and that with him. However sadly enough Uncle Bunny is not coming back and I don't have the heart to explain this to him. He also insists that his Mema is coming to visit at Tennessee and snuggle with him... so she better start planning or this poor little boy will have one broken heart. I could be mean and hold Bunny's pictures hostage but I will send them because I know how much he treasures them... by the way haven't made it to the post office (I wanna get a special envelope to send them in or else they will get bent... I will try to do that tom. it is suppose to rain.) Anyways the point is these are two cute pictures of my boys with their very special Uncle (Alex, Jared (better bring your family or I am not sure Austie will count you r visit), and Nicholas you better get down here so you can measure up to the Bunny who came to visit twice)!

Apology

Just like to apologize to all 5 of you that I tagged but it is all part of the wonderfully, fun game my sister-in-law likes to play. And you have to admit it is fun and interesting to see what others write. A great way to learn about one another (have a sold you on the idea yet?)
