Happy Birthday Kamden!

Kamden turned 5 on July 5!!! He is growing up so fast. I measured him on his birthday and in just 2 months he has grown 1.25 inches! I can hardly believe he will be starting kindergarten next month. :( He (and Austin) got a trampoline for his birthday and they LOVE it! It was a complete surprise. I took them to the pool while Heath put it together so when we got home it was all ready to go.

Having a little fun!

This year Austin bought Kamden a birthday present with his very own money (and he paid the tax)! If you know Austin this is a HUGE improvement because he does NOT spend his money on anything and if he does he wants me to pay the tax. :)We were so proud of him for this. So, here he is giving Kamden his gift.

The whole family wants to be Captain America!



Snaggletooth!! He lost ANOTHER tooth about a week before his birthday. This time Austin accidently knocked it out with his elbow but it was already loose.

Texas!!!

Two days after we returned from Alabama and New Orleans we left for a weekend in Dallas and Arlington. We toured the Dallas Cowboys Stadium and then we met up with some friends from Tyler and went to the Texas Ranger's game. We all had such a great time visiting and catching up with everyone. This was the first time we had seen anyone from Tyler since we moved two years ago.

During the Cowboy's Stadium tour we got to go onto the field. Here is Heath and Austin standing on the star at the 50 yard line.

Austin is trying his luck at kicking a field goal.
Heath is hiking the ball to Kamden.


This place is HUGE!!!!!

Let's Go Rangers!
Best Buds!

George W. Bush was at the game! The picture is burry because I had to zoom in so much but he is in the green shirt.
All the kiddos!

Saturday we went to Six Flags.

Kamden with the Batmobile.





Saturday night we went to the Stockyards in Fort Worth. The boys got to ride the mechanical bull. Let's just say I don't think they will be taking up bull riding any time soon. :)

Last Minute Trip

There just nothing like a last minute trip! Father's day weekend, Heath had to go to Mobile, AL for work so we decided to go with him and take a quick trip to the beach. We left on Friday morning and flew to New Orleans rented a car and drove to Gulf Shores. We spent 2 nights in Gulf Shores and then went to Mobile on Sunday for Heath's meetings. Tuesday we drove back to New Orleans and spent the day touring the city before flying home Tuesday night.

Monkey see-Monkey do!
Having some fun jumping waves at the beach.
My little poser!

Time for an ice cream break.

While we were in Mobile we toured the USS ALABAMA. It was really neat and interesting but it was SO HOT!!!

We also got to tour the submarine.

One night in Mobile, we ate at the Blue Gill Restaurant and we sat at a table where Elvis supposedly sat in 1959. We thought that was cool!




New Orleans!!!


On the way home Kamden thought he should read the safety manual incase something happened. :)
