Summer Birthday Bash

This summer while Andy's family was here, Meme and Papaw threw everyone a huge birthday party. No one knew what was going on until it happened. It was their secret!! We had all the cousins and aunts and uncles over for the fun. The rented a blowup water slide and had a pinata and games in our yard. The boys were not too sure about the slide. We basically had to throw Karson, Korbin, and Brazos up it. Braxton went a couple of times but wasn't too interested. The older cousins had a blast and stayed on it for over 2 hours. It was a great party and we were glad that we got to celebrate with the Iowans.Boys all got John Deere wheelbarrow. Now they can help in the yard.

Laura takes a turn

Karson's first pinata. He had to leard how to swing the bat and get Papaw to keep it still

Korbin even tried his swing

Papaw bribed Karson to do the slide. No one else could get him to do it. Papaw has the magic touch.

Korbin and Brazos like the kiddie pool

Sink or Swim

We spend the entire summer at the swimming pool and the whole family loves it. Karson is a good swimmer but just refused to enter the big pool this year. Last year he went all over the pool doing the slide and diving board. I think a lot had to do with mom not swimming much this summer since she was pregnant and not able to swim after having Kelton. Korbin is the exact opposite and loves to swim. He will go with anyone off the slide or board. Goes underwater and comes up smiling.
Trouble, Korbin???

Higher the better!

Fun with Meme and Papaw

The cousins always have fun at Meme and Papaws house. They have a fun new adventure for them everyday. The boys all spent the night together and would join MeMe for cartoons on her bed so the parents could sleep late.

The fort dad built for Andy has become a popular spot among the boys. The play in it and shoot all the bad guys away.

We visited the library while the boys were here for storytime. While waiting, the boys were glad to have stories read to them.
Taking a break from playing to eat a snack.

Fun at Park

Just a few pics from July with Andy's family before Kelton was born. We enjoy every minute we get to play together.

Wrestle Mania
New car mats from MeMe are perfect towns on their patio

4-wheeler fun
PaPaw put the 4 wheeler to good use. He hooked it up to the wagon and hauled the boys to the park, pool, around the block. It was a great invention!!

Horsing around at the farm

A highlight of everyone's trip is always to go to the farm with uncle Brent and ride the horses. Brazos even has several horses named after Brent's. Even though they are very timid and do not want on them, they love to look at them and be at the farm.
I am about to pop- only two more days. Rusty gives me sympathy
Korbin gets a horseback ride with dad

Karson rides T-ball
T-ball gives Korbin a lift
We even got Lyneil up on T-Ball after we were all in tears from laughing. It was her first time and he was a tall horse for a shorter lady!!

Boys checking it out
Well, dad what do you think about the horses today???
Braxton which horse do you think my daddy should give me next??
