More Birthday FUN!

This year Dalton’s birthday just happened to fall on a Tuesday. Since Tuesday nights are Family Night at one of the local museums, who just happen to be hosting a traveling dinosaur exhibit, we thought it was the perfect opportunity to head down to see it.  We were a little concerned the larger than life dinos might scare the kids, but boy were we wrong.  They both had a great time and Dalton has asked to go back almost every day since.

Blake couldn’t resist snapping this picture of Addie waving bye-bye to the T-Rex.

After the museum, we took Dalton to eat at one of his favorite pizza places in town.  Here are the kids enjoying some of the rides and games after dinner.

A boy , a dog and a boat…

What more do I need to say?  Dalton got a remote controlled toy boat for his birthday.  I’m not sure who had more fun….Dalton, Mr. Butters or the other boys watching from the sidelines?!?

Birthday Boy

It’s hard to believe our little guy is five years old already.  Next year he starts kindergarten and before we know it, we’ll be dropping him off at college.  Since turning five is such a big deal, what better way to celebrate than having two parties.  We were able to celebrate with family over Easter weekend in San Angelo with Ice Cream Sundaes following Easter lunch and then again this morning (his actual birthday) with our playgroup friends and a pirate themed party.  Tonight we are planning to take him to see the dinosaurs at one of the local museums. 

Here is just some of the fun captured at his Angelo party….

Happy Easter

This Easter season, we were able to enjoy lots of friends and family.  We were able to make the trip home to San Angelo, catch up with aunts, uncles and cousins galore and attend church with Blake’s parents and brother.  Dalton had such a good time that on the way home Monday evening, he asked if we could all just move in with Macca and Poc. 

Here are the kids dying some eggs on Saturday evening.

Fun with Friends

We met up with some of the moms from church over spring break and enjoyed a day out at one of our favorite parks.  The kids had a great time running, sliding, climbing, feeding the ducks and spending time with good friends.  Moms are fun, but friends are even better!
