Family Fun Day!

Whew, What a busy weekend. Friday evening Cleve and Alicia kept the kids for me while I had a senior shoot in Weatherford and then Chad meet us there and we had dinner and let the kids play. Bryson and Jax play so well together and had a blast. Jax found a firefighter jacket and wore it all night, he thought he was so cool. Emmie had a blast raiding Alicia's closet and wearing her clothes and all her accessories. Alicia even gave her a "coat" as Em calls it and has asked me everyday if she can wear it! Thanks Alicia!!! We dressed Macie up in her costume and she is the most precious strawberry that I have ever seen. The costume was ABSOLUTELY adorable!



Saturday we started the crisp cool morning out at a soccer game. Emmie is doing so well, she has scored at least one goal per game. You go Emmie girl. I just love to watch them play and yes I am one of those mom's who cheer when she has the ball. She told me last week "Mom, why do you yell like that that embarrasses me". Hahahaha! Sorry Em but I can't help it! Chad was Mr. mom all Saturday afternoon, I had five shoots so he was on his own. He took the kids to the open house at the Fire Department in our neighborhood. He said that they had a blast. The kids got to climb all over the trucks, bounced in the bounce houses and even got to see Care A Flight land. Jax thought he had died and gone to heaven. I was sad that I missed it, but so thankful that Chad is such a great daddy and took them so they wouldn't miss out. He even had a steak dinner going when I got home. Maybe I should go back to work full time. Wink wink............

Yesterday we were off to see Marry Poppins and spend some time at the fair. We drove to Dallas and then caught the green line to Fair Park. Both kids thought this was so cool. Jax even got to hear the train "whoo whoo" as he calls it. He was so proud. Marry Poppins was BREATH TAKING! I have been to several plays but this one hands down was by far the best. The special effects were amazing. http://disney.go.com/theatre/marypoppins/broadway/#/video/mp-sneakpeek/. I will say it was the most expensive nap Jax has ever taken. The show was long and he did really well considering. I only had to get up with him once. We ventured out to the fair afterward and got our corn dog which was great! Then as we were walking to the games the flood gates opened up and after the first lighting bolt we were out of there. We went and ate dinner and then the kids voted to come home and play a game instead of getting ice cream so that is just what we did. We played What's in Ned's Head and this was the first time that Jax was into playing a game. We had a great family fun day even if it rained!




The kids were being so silly in the car!!!


When we were putting the kids to bed I asked them both what their favorite part of the day was and Emmie said it was Marry Poppins. When Bert walked on the walls and when Marry Poppins flew across the audience. Jax said his favorite part was the "rain" (train) as he calls it. He said it went "whoo whoo".

Well the laundry is calling my name. I will post more when I get back from Oprah!
