Beach fun!

 We went with the Tanners to the beach for the day! So much fun, and totally worth the hour drive. We went to a beach that allows you to drive right up to the beach, and have your car there so you don't have to haul coolers or anything in. So easy! Makes the beach that much more fun! We even brought Piper along, although she was content hanging out in the shade of the car. ha ha.

4th of July Fun!

 Brandin had a 3 day weekend, thank you 4th of July, so we decided to firework our weekend up! On the 3rd of July we went and bought fireworks and Carter and Brandin had a blast setting them off in front of our house. We let Kenna hold a sparkler (with supervision of course) and she loved it so much she went through 5-6 of them. 


For the 4th of July we went into Houston and went to "Freedom over Texas" event, and let me tell you, it was AMAZING!!! It cost 10 bucks for me, and 10 for Brandin, and the kiddos were free. Once inside all of the rides were all free, and they were handing out a lot of soda's and other drinks for free. We were able to go and do whatever we wanted, and the lines were not even that crazy! They also had a lot of war memorabilia, and other things like animal balloons and face/hair painting all included in the 10 bucks. We got there at 4 when it opens and didn't get out of there until 11. In the evening they had Clint Black and Josh Turner performing, and then the most impressive firework show I have ever seen, no joke. Every Second of the show felt like it could have been the finale and it went on for 30 min, all synchronized to music.  I was not expecting anything that impressive. I can't wait to go back next year!!

June

 Carter lost his second tooth! The new ones are already growing in fast, so he wont be toothless for long. 


We adopted a new family member! Carter has wanted a puppy for so long, and now that we have the space for one we told him we would get him one. Her name is Piper. She is a mutt that is mostly retriever/shepherd mix. She is so sweet with the kids and loves pretty much everyone. Now I just need to get her potty trained. lol
 Moving Day!! The moving truck finally made it after a week of waiting!
 Carter and Kenna playing in the backyard in the sprinklers
 Father's Day, from Carter to Daddy
 There is a drive in only about 5 miles from us, so we decided on Sat to go and see Inside Out. Such a cute movie, and even though it stated raining halfway through, we still really enjoyed it.
 The sky while we were waiting. .


 Brandin's birthday was Sunday, so we threw him a transformers party! (CHOSEN BY CARTER OF COURSE)




 Homemade by yours truly. I hate lasagna so Brandin never gets it, and for his birthday this was his one request (well, this and chocolate chip applesauce cake) So I sacrificed for him and made it. First time in my life making it, and I have to say it wasn't half bad! True love right there :)
