Annual River Trip

We had our annual river trip with my family this past weekend.  Jack loved playing in the water, jumping from rock to rock, pouring water on Taylor, throwing water balloons and tubing down the river with Daddy.  Taylor enjoyed being outside, loved splashing in the water, enjoyed shopping in Gruene and laughed every time Jack poured water on her  We always have a great time and look forward to it every year!

Also, Taylor turned 10 months on Friday!  I can't believe she will be one in two months....she's growing up way too fast!

Orange Belt

Jack earned his orange belt today!  He was so excited (if you can't tell from the first picture).  There were certain moves he was tested on and he did great!  He was also asked by the instructor to be the leader....that made his day!  The leader leads the class and tells everyone what to do next.  He got to tell everyone to "Set", which means to stand very still with your hands by your side.  The class also had to say "Yes Sir" to him.  Jack was on top of the world!  We are so proud of him and look forward to his next graduation! 

A Day at the Beach

We went to Galveston for the day on Saturday.  Jack loves the beach and Taylor's first beach experience was great!  She loved the water and if we looked away for one second, she had a mouth full of sand.  My mom came into town and it was her birthday on Sunday, so she enjoyed spending her birthday weekend at the beach with the kids.  My brother and Michael also met us down there.  The weather was perfect and we all had a great time!!

And by the way, Taylor is officially crawling.  She started somewhat crawling last weekend and by Wednesday she was in full crawling mode.  Yay!!!
