Padre Island

We took our annual trip to Corpus Christi this past week and boy did we have a great time!! The kids seem to love it more every year. Brayson couldn't wait to hit the beach. This year we took a tour of the USS Lexington and really learned alot of interesting facts. Brayson and Blaire loved looking at the airplanes on board the aircraft carrier. We also went to our favorite seafood restaurant, Waterstreet Seafood Co. We look forward to that every year!! We spent a lot of time in the pool and on the beach and can't wait to go back again next year!

July 4th Weekend

What a wonderful weekend we had!! We were blessed with a visit from cousins Austin and Trenton. Blaire and Brayson love playing with them!! They had a great time bowling and playing with Pop's canoe.

Sunday we headed into Marble Falls for the Independence Day celebration. The kiddos had a great time. The weather was so nice and the breeze coming off the water was perfect!

I thought this one was cute of Blaire in the bouncy house.

Not long before the fireworks started and it was getting really crowded!

Brayson was really anticipating the fireworks!!

Brayson got the camera and decided to make sure people had evidence that Mommy and Daddy were there too!

Monday we were invited by some friends of ours to their neighborhoods annual 4th of July parade. The kiddos were excited to get to participate by riding their bikes along with the fire trucks.

There's Blaire in the pack!
Last, but certainly not least, was Brayson!!
Then we headed to the Meadowlakes pool and had a blast with our friends!! Here's Brayson with his friend Tessie Mayes.
What a handsome little devil!! We are blessed with great friends, a wonderful country and so many things to be thankful for. I couldn't be happier.
