Houston Rodeo 2014

 We took the girls to the Houston Rodeo in March.  We had such a good time with them.  We ate corndogs and funnel cake, visited the petting zoo, rode some rides, saw some horses, ate a snow cone, and saw a concert (well, part of a concert...)  Fun time was had by all!

Mary and Baby Liam's Shower

 In March I also took Taylor with me to a baby shower for my cousin and Baby Liam.  We traveled to Dallas with Aunt Joni and Nana.  It was at the Dallas Arboretum and it was so pretty!  The flowers were really nice and the facility was excellent!  It was a tea party and they didn't leave anything out!  We even got little tea sets as we left!  Very neat!  So happy for Mary, Will, and Baby Liam!  Thanks for including us in the shower!

Taylor had fun playing with Cousin Molly!  She was so adorable in her fancy dress!

Lake Somerville Camping Trip

 The end of March we took the girls camping with some friends!  I got our campsite set up all by myself...pretty proud of myself!  Then came the rain...so we huddled in the tent and waited it out!  The rest of the weekend was so nice!  A little chilly in the mornings, but nothing sweatshirts and jackets couldn't take care of!  We decorated cookies, played on play equipment, took walks, dug in the ashes, played by the shore, and had a great time.  Looking forward to camping again when the weather gets cooler!!  

 

Pathfinder 2K

 Pathfinder 2K was so much fun this year.  It was the beginning of March and they even did it Friday before The Woodlands Marathon this year.  I think it was a great idea!  Lots of kiddos participated and we had such a great time.  Lots of cousins ran, but I didn't get pictures of everyone.  I ran with Taylor and Tyler and they ran the whole thing!  It was only 2K, but those kiddos wore me out!  I'll be ready next year!

Road Trip with Grandma!

The end of February Taylor took a road trip with Grandma!  They went to Gulfport to see lots of cousins, Aunt Cathy, and Uncle Al at the horse show!  I think Taylor fell in love with the horses!  We hope to go visit them sometime again and take Jordan too! 

Our own little Fern Gully...

 We have found a gem!  Matt and the girls went on a walk behind the fence about a month ago and found a wonderful little walking area behind our house in the greenbelt area.  Taylor spotted a tree with an orange 'X' on it and promptly stated that they were in Fern Gully.  If you haven't seen the movie, you should...good one!  Anyway, we have frequented Fern Gully since then...even walked all the way to two different parks along the way!  The girls love it and they (and Winnie) can run wild!  We've even found a rope swing they like to swing on and built dams and bridges to divert the water in the stream.  This walking area has become one of our favorites!

Seven Acre Farm Fun

 We went with friends to Seven Acre Farm...and just about had the place to ourselves!  My good friend got a groupon deal so we took the kids on a Friday!  We fed the animals, pet the animals, chased the animals, held the animals, slid down the slides, played in the sandbox, raced cars around the track, ran free, played in the boat, and our favorite...did the zip line over and over and over!  They all loved the baby goats.  There were three tiny baby goats that loved the kids...or at least couldn't find a place to hide from them.  I enjoyed watching the Llama, sheep, goats, and even a huge turtle.  We got some drinks and rested then went to lunch!  Fun day with fun friends!  Girls can't wait to go back...:)
