Bowling

Saturday night my mom kept the girls for James and I. We have not been out in a while, so we wanted to hangout with our friends. It was The Pifer's, The Sim's, Aimee (my sister), Matt and his friend. We all met at La Fiest first and ate dinner and hungout. After dinner, we headed to the Westview Lanes and got our bowl on.

I have not been bowling in a couple of years and it was too much fun. We got there about 11 and the Extreme Bowling had already begun. The lights were all off, black lights on, music and unlimited bowling. I am def. not good, but I think my game improved as the night went on. Tiffany was really good and got tones of spares! James is really good, but he use to play in a league a long time ago! Aimee shocked me by how well she plays. She was 1 pin away from a Turkey (3 strikes in a row)and she def. kicked my butt. My arm was so tired after about 4 games and I had to quit and I def. felt it the next day. Those balls are so heavy and my weak arms really have to work to get it down the lane..haha! We bowled til about 1:00 am and then all headed home. I love nights like these and I want to go bowling again soon. We are even talking about joining a league...that should be interesting!!!

Souper Salad & Our Girls..

Our girls favorite place to go and eat would be Souper Salad!! They absolutely love their veggies and fruit and they eat soo much!! Both girls love salad, broccoli, cucumbers, tomatoes, watermelon, cantaloupe and honey dew melon. That is what their meals consist of. Avery will tell us that she wants to eat, "Soup Salad". We took them last Friday night and I snapped a couple of pics with my phone of them bc they are just too cute!

Haidyn kicked back in her high chair, eating her ice cream cone

Happy 4th of July-pic overload

I hope that everyone had a fabulous 4th of July!! Our day was wonderful and it was so nice to spend it with our family.

Saturday- we got up and played around the house for most of the morning. We left Waco about 2:00 and headed to the lakehouse. The lakehouse is on Cedar Creek Lake and it is about an hour and a half away at most. This is our 2nd year to spend the 4th there. We were able to spend it with James's mom, sister and other family. It was our house and the house next door just having a big celebration. There was delicious bbq, live band, amazing fireworks, boating, fishing and swimming!

We took the girls out on the boat when we got there. It was Avery's 2nd time on the boat and Haidyn's 1st. They both loved it! It was so hot outside, so it was nice to get on the boat and go for a breezy ride. Some of the girls did some tubing and Avery loved watching them do that. After, the boat we sat on the dock and watched James, his sister and the other kids jump off of the very top. The kids think that James is so much fun bc he does the stuff they want him too! Haha..he is just a big kid himself.

We then ate some food and just hungout. I guess the firework show started about 10:00 and it was AMAZING!! I looked out at the lake before the show started and there were about 10 boats just parked in the middle of the lake waiting. The girls liked the show too. I was really worried that the loud pops would scare them, but they both did so well. After, the fireworks we changed the girls into their pj's and headed home. We finally got home about 1:15 in the morning and we passed out!

We had so much fun and I love going to the lakehouse bc it is so beautiful out there and so relaxing!! We are going to go and spend a weekend there coming up really soon and I can't wait!! This is also, the place that we want to have our wedding ceremony and we got the dates blacked out for it next year. It is just so peaceful and would love to get married by the water at sunset and just have a nice reception afterwards.
