Florida 2010

Well my little family decided to take a quick and I mean quick trip to Florida this past weekend. Ricky heard something on the radio about a Pirate Festival down at Panama City Beach Florida over the weekend. So we said what the hey, why not right?! So we loaded up the kids and pawpaw and Ni and we headed East on I-10. Well the car ride was good no problems really, 10 hrs later we rolled into Panama City Beach, after getting up at 2am to leave Houston. Very nice and NO OIL!!!! We played in the pool and on the beach all of Friday. Saturday was the Pirate Festival in town. We were there all day, from noon to 4pm. Kids were exhausted, they got tons of beads from the parade, played games, rode a train, played in a mirror maze. Then after leaving there they still wanted to go to the beach and swim. We took them back and finished the day at the beach and the pool. Needless to say the trip was short but very eventful to say the least!! Woke up Sunday morning at 4am and headed home!

Fun in The Sun

Hope everyone had a fun and safe Fourth!
Monday we loaded up the kids and we went to the beach for some fun in the sun! They had so much fun, we wanted to get out there before all the oil decided to show up on the Texas Coast. Well so we thought.....
The kids had fun playing with their sand toys, collecting shells with mommy and going way out in the water with daddy. We made sandwiches and just hung out for a few hrs. Zoey also went and she seamed to have fun, not really knowing where she was or what to do. Well Annabel and I were sitting in the water waiting for daddy and AJ to come back so she could go out with daddy. Well she was trying to get some "dirt" off her arm and couldn't so she showed me and I couldn't get it off, well I looked closer and yup it was OIL! I left it on because I didn't think Ricky would believe me since where we were there was no signs of oil anywhere. He looked and sure enough it's what it was. No clue how she got it, maybe from some seaweed. But we got it off and after that we loaded up the kiddos and headed home!

Soccer 2010

Well AJ has started Soccer!! He loves it and is really good at it!
Ricky and I went through all kinds of leagues to put him in. Some start at 5 others just not what we were looking for. I came across Rush! They are a great organization that has professionals teaching kids how to play soccer. AJ is liking his soccer camp he is in, they are teaching him the basics. He's 4 so not much going on at that age but to learn how the game is played. If he continues to want to play then Rush Soccer is where we will stay!!
