4th of July Weekend

Chad's family came up to visit us for the 4th of July weekend. It so fun to have them here! I just love being with family for the holidays. Even though we didn't get to see any fireworks or do any parades, we still managed to have a great time. On Saturday we spent the day playing at Mahoney Park playing on the playground and playing tennis. Chad and I finally got to break in our new rackets. We definitely need more practice though! We had a fun time laughing at our lack of skills. That night we had a little indoor BBQ since it started to rain. Got to just love the summer storms here. They're crazy! Then on Monday we went and played at the Children's Museum. I just love that place! It makes me wish I was 5 years old again. I'm pretty sure Chad had more fun playing and crawling in and out of things than anyone else did. All in all I would chalk it up as another great 4th of July!

Kevin teaching Carson how to fly.

Mark was always willing to pose for a picture for me.

Poor Carson is such a drool monster that he has to wear a bib all the time.

I LOVE Chad's face in this picture...I'm pretty sure he was wishing he could really fly it. :)

Carson having a great time flying by himself.

This picture cracks me up! Looks like a clown car with all of them packed in there.

Carson just chillin' in his jogging stroller at the park. He loves this thing.

Mark holding on for dear life right before he fell off.

Who doesn't love the teeter totter?!

This is Carson's new favorite toy.

Hope you all had a fun 4th of July!

Happy Birthday Chad!!!!

My cute hubby turned the big 26 last week. This poor guy has been going none stop lately. He works full time and then goes to school every night from 5 until after 9pm. He barely has any spare time these days. Thank goodness these 5 week classes will be coming to an end here soon!! I had thought of tons of ideas of fun things we could do to celebrate Chad's birthday, however, between work and school all my fun ideas had to be put on hold. After Chad had a fun filled day working and going to school he came home to his own mini "surprise party" that I threw for him. The party was complete with birthday cake, presents, streamers, and balloons. It was so fun to be able to spend some time with him and celebrate together! Love you Chadley!

The birthday boy and all his loot. I think he made out pretty well. :)

This picture was taken early in the morning before Chad went to work...not the best picture, but it was the only time these two saw each other that day.

This was the most exciting present of all....

I just LOVE our new jogging stroller! I've already taken it out on my runs many times. The best part is that Carson seems to love it too and is content to sit there and just enjoy the scenery.

Here's a few recent pictures of Carson. I found him sleeping like this during his nap the other day. So funny! I'm not sure how that could be comfortable though.

I absolutely LOVE this picture! I just love this boy to pieces!

This cute little guy is growing up so fast! He does a sort of army crawl right now and it seems to work for him to get to wherever it is he wants to go. I'm sure he'll be crawling before we know it.
