Last Thursday was Barrett's Kindergarten program, "Disney Dazzle"!! Barrett's class dressed up as Pirates, which he loved because he got to have a sword!!

Our Family !!

Our class seating area

"Marching in" Such a big boy!!

Making a bridge with friend Mollie.

The kiddos sang Disney songs and danced, it was so cute!! Barrett's class song was "A Pirate's Life" he liked it, but I think his favorite was "Life is a Highway"!! I can't believe that his Kindergarten year is almost over!!

Monday Mudday

Monday it was back to the grindstone, it was hard getting the boys up and going after our long weekend. We got some much needed rain on Monday, which meant one thing for the boys...MUD! After school Barrett couldn't wait to get out & play in it.






The boys had a blast & got just filthy!! Barrett came to the door at one point just beaming, asking me to come outside, he just had to tell me something! I went out and he explained that Jack could say three new words. Really, what?? He said "he can say NO, Ouch, and freak.WHAT?!? I explained that he already knew the words No & ouch, and freak although new to his vocabulary is NOT something I want either of them saying!! Ahhhh!!! Crazy boys!! I can only imagine why Jack was saying, "no & ouch!" HA!!

Road Trip!!

We left bright and early Friday morning headed to Tennessee, for a weekend wedding. A friend from Lufkin, that now lives in Nashville was getting married. He actually had a band that played at our Reception, almost 10 years ago!! Ryan commented on how old that makes us sound, ugh!! Thanks Babe!

The boys were actually very well behaved on the 11 hour drive!!
Memphis!! Just passing through.





Next up Nashville!!



The wedding was actually in a small town called Wartrace, right outside Nashville. Driving through TN was beautiful!! All the beautiful farms and rolling hills.

We checked in to our less than ideal hotel, not much of a choice in the small town. We then headed out for some dinner!

The boys were SO happy to be out of the car!



On Saturday we decided to get ready and check out of our hotel {if u could call it that}, and we planned to find a hotel after the reception.

We hung around the small town of Wartrace during the afternoon, had lunch at a quaint cafe, and then headed to the MOTGroom's house. The Jones' family have a beautiful place high up on a hill, I'm just glad my driveway isn't like theirs! My kids would be at the hospital everyday, HA!!

The wedding reception was at an old historic Hotel, the Walking Horse Hotel. It is supposedly haunted! Teresa, my MIL had been there most of the week helping her best friend, MOTG Tammy get ready for the wedding. Teresa said she was in the hotel by herself one day decorating, and heard the piano playing. She said she didn't think much about it until she realized she was ALONE!! Scary!

I love this picture, a friend made it for Amy and Brady. Brady is a big musician, it says, "Brady picked Amy". So cute!!


These boys had a blast!!






Tammy {MOTG} & Nana


My kids danced all night!!


Barrett, gatoring!!



My sweetie & I!!


Nana & I


Jack with Brady & Tammy





It was a great night!! We left the reception and drove as far as we could while the boys slept. We ended up stoping in Jackson,TN to sleep. I called 10 hotels and only 1 place had a room!!! Crazy!! As we were checking out this morning, I found the reason why!! BASEBALL!! Of couse, I should have known! HA! Ryan said, "Kelly that is going to be us pretty soon!" We are now making the long drive home!! Whew, hope we make it!!

It's the simple things!

On Thursday after school the boys wanted to play with this water balloon toy I had picked up for Barrett.



It's like a bottle that fills the balloons up with water, or air; and it came with like 1million balloons!!



They had THE best time with these water balloons!! who knew?!? They were shooting baskets with the balloons instead of the basketball. Barrett then made a target on a tree, that they were shooting at!!






No fancy toys here, just balloons, water, and FUN!!

Tball Wednesday

I love this time of year because it's baseball season!! I never thought I would enjoy the ballpark, but I'm learning to;)

It was so cold at practice on Wednesday, Jack didn't notice he played baseball all night with the big boys! At one point I hear everyone just howling laughing, I turned to look. It was Jack up to bat, with a helmet on backwards and a bat twice his size! It was hilarious!! I missed the picture, I had to run and get him before he knocked the kids ball of the tee!! Ha!!






I finally had to put this little Cracker Jack in the jeep with me!!



TROUBLE!! But he sure is cute!!
