Moontower

Kids are only allowed at Moontower on Sunday afternoons so we took all the cousins there on Sunday to relax, play some games, and listen to some live music.

Staycation

This year for spring break we have been having a fun staycation. Bryce and the nephews came in from Houston for 5 days, PawPaw came for a few days, and Brad and family are already here in Austin. We have balanced low key hanging out with mini excursions around town. The cousins all had a ball and were sad for the week to end.

It's My Park Day

This past weekend Daphne and part of her Girl Scout troop picked up trash at Dick Nichols Park as part of It's My Park Day.

Tyler is 9!

I can't believe our baby boy turned 9! Bryce and the boys came in from Houston for Tyler's birthday weekend, which included his party. My dad and Mary came in for the party. We had a video game truck come to our house and the kids also played outside- basketball, ping pong, and in the backyard. We lucked out with good weather. With cold and flu season still in full swing, three of Tyler's friends had to stay home because they were sick.

The video game truck had consoles on the outside
where you could play active Wii games.

The inside of the truck was decked out with multiple screens,
systems, and controllers.

Tyler is in the middle there somewhere and loving the truck!

recently earned his whittling chip through Cub Scouts.

Blue & Gold Banquet


This year's Cub Scout Blue & Gold Banquet had a
Fiesta theme. I couldn't resist Noah and Tyler in
sombreros. I'm surprised they smiled for me.
