Spring Break 2014

 We started our Spring Break off with donut holes and a trip to the park. I thought a dozen donut holes would be enough for both of them to share--boy was I wrong! They devoured them!! I guess they'll each get their own dozen next time! :)
 
 The weather on Saturday was drizzly and rainy--so Drew thought it'd be the prefect time to go to Fiesta Texas. Mommy needed a little convincing....but I will admit it was nice that there was NO ONE there and we never waited in a line. :) Their day was made when we ran into this guy...
 
 Went for a train ride...
 
 While Gracyn and I rode the bumper cars...
These two crazies decided to ride the Gully Washer. It was all fun and games...
 
...until they went under a water fall and got drenched!! Hudson was COLD and WET! :( Guess who got to spend the next thirty minutes in the bathroom, blow drying his clothes???
 They LOVED riding this roller coaster! Gracyn rides with her hands up the entire time! And you could hear Hudson yelling, "Yeah, Baby!!" Hilarious!! They rode it over and over again!
 Daddy can't ride the Hustler...and he can barely even stand to watch us spin around since it makes him so sick.
 After all the fun, we headed over to Papasitos for some yummy Mexican food!
 Who doesn't love a dance party?
 One morning was spent making forts and hanging out at home. These two LOVE a good fort!!
 The kids and I headed back to Fiesta Texas one morning. This was my first time braving it alone--everything went great!! I think we're going to have a really fun summer!! :)
Yosemite Sam!
 
 Riding the carousel.
 
 After that we headed over to Big'z to celebrate Ms. Kerri's birthday and to play with friends. It was a fun-filled day!! 
                
One of the highlights of Gracyn's Spring Break was getting her ears pierced!! We told her that she could get it done whenever she was ready. She woke up Friday morning and decided that it was the day! So, off to the mall we went! Meme went with us. Gracyn was so brave...she didn't even cry one tear!! All she said was, "OUCH!"
 Before...a little nervous...
 After...she LOVES them!!
 
 She couldn't stop looking at herself in the mirror. Ha!
 We did a little shopping...I found her up in the window!
 Her little side-kick had to join her!
 We had to stop in the Lego store.
 Then we headed over the Magnolia Pancake Haus for lunch! YUM!!
 We ended the week with a birthday party for Tucker. These two LOVE the sandbox!
 
 What a FUN week!!!

This & That

Here's a little bit of this and that!
When Daddy has a work dinner...we get to go out to eat. The kids wanted to go to Alamo Cafe this night. 
They LOVE "playing" games in the little arcade room.
This little guy is getting a new bike for his birthday. Don't you think he's getting a little big for his trike?! He wants a "Hot Wheels" bike--surprise, surprise!
Piper's mom had a new baby, so we got to take her dance and she got to spend the afternoon with us.
Drew snapped this picture of the cousins when we were teaching Bible Hour one Sunday.
Gracyn was STAR student at school. It was a fun week celebrating her!
Happy President's Day!
Nana brought back this little gem for Hudson after her trip to California. She didn't make it home with the pants--but Hudson didn't care! He LOVES his new "fancy" clothes--and especially with shorts! I'm sure you can guess Mommy's opinion..... ;)
Enjoying a fun lunch with friends at Chick-fil-a.
You can't go to Lowe's without test driving the lawnmowers.
"Rainbow," our new friend from the Rodeo, has become a member of our family. Gracyn enjoys dressing her....
...and putting her to bed at night.

A Trip to the Dentist, Sick Babies, and Super Heros!

I took the kids to the dentist to get their teeth cleaned. They did SUCH a good job!
Hudson cracked everyone up! At one point he told the dentist to stop talking because he couldn't hear the t.v.!!
He thought he was big stuff getting pictures taken of his teeth!
Hudson's teeth were great! Poor Gracyn has my teeth....and had two cavities in teeth where her sealants had fallen out. We had to get those filled and more sealants on her teeth and on her new molars. NO fun!! She did GREAT though! The dentist was really impressed!!
The one thing that we really didn't like getting from the dentist, was germs from the office for a tummy bug! Hudson woke up in the middle of the night throwing up--and was up ALL night long. 
She woke up the next morning throwing up too. Bless her heart!
The perk from this nasty bug was getting all the extra snuggle time in with my little loves! I was shocked that I didn't end up getting it since my water cup is the "family" cup and they both would rather drink from it than their own. I'm so thankful it was only a 24 hour bug...but it was a LONG 24 hours!!
They have this Super Hero cut out at the gym and the kids got a kick out of standing behind it!
Super Gracyn!
Super Hudson!!
