Mother's Day

We had a really nice weeked. My step sister Laura and her family came into town from California, so Natalie spent the weekend at my mom's house with them. Steve and I went to Dallas to hang out with our friends Mike & Tina before they have baby number 2. Tina and I had a massage and a pedicure on Saturday and we all went to dinner Saturday night. On Sunday, we drove from Dallas to my mom's house to celebrate Mother's Day. My mom had quite the crowd there and lots of good food, so it was a great Mother's Day!

Steve brought the Segway from their office, so the big kids had fun playing with that.

Karaoke

We went over to my dad's house on Sunday evening with our friends Rina and Keith and their daughter, Danielle (who is just a few months younger than Natalie). Natalie and Danielle got on the karaoke machine and it was pretty funny. They both loved it and sang the ABC song over and over and then got onto Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. Thankfully, my dad has two microphones!

Some Birthday Fun

We went to a birthday party on Sunday at Market Street for one of the little girls that Natalie knows from school. Natalie loves baby Keely and she had a good time at the party. The kids played in the fountains, which is always fun.

Splashtown

We went to Splashtown on Saturday and it was a lot of fun. I haven't been there in no less than 10 years and things have changed a lot. They have some really neat things for little kids. I have a feeling we will spending many days there this summer!

Elvia and Jordy came along with us, which made it all the more fun for Natalie!

Nice Spring Days

The weather has been really nice here lately, so we have been spending a lot of time outdoors before the brutal summer humidity hits!

Natalie LOVES to ride her bike.

Our Trip to Florida

We went to Florida last weekend where Steve played in a volleyball tournament. My mom and step dad came along with us as well. It was kind of a fast trip, but it was a lot of fun.

My mom, John and Natalie walking on the beach.

They had a little play area right on the beach, which Natalie loved.

Playing on the bunk beds with Daddy.

Steve's team...The Fly Guys, at the tournament.

Steve's team was inducted into the Tourament Hall of Fame (mainly because they are all so old and have been playing in the tournament for so long...and because they always do well :)

Natalie loved the beads that Daddy brought home from the party.

The Last Few Weeks

Okay so as always I am way behind on posting...here are a couple of pictures from the last few weeks (or maybe the beginning of the month)!

This is my friend Tiffany's daughter (a friend from high school), Reece. They were feeding ducks out at a pond behind her house.

We went to a charity event at Pump It Up and Scooby was there...Natalie loved him and followed him around a lot of the night.

They had a pajama night at Natalie's school (and now Natalie asks everytime we get ready for school if she can wear her pajamas).

Mother Goose read a story to the kids at Pajama night.
