can't get enough

There's something about a summer day when there's nothing to do except HANG OUT, SNUGGLE & ENJOY DOING "NOTHING"! 

I ran this morning while the boys were sleeping, showered, and did laundry but for two hours now, we've just been hanging out and it feels SO good! I need to take advantage of this more often! Feel like we go, go, GO and never just let life soak in. Although we enjoy each crazy, busy moment....I want to do "nothing" more often! It's pretty darn FUN :-) 

And just to share the boys BIG catch from a few nights ago!!! Justin almost fell in reeling this guy in! He was pretty big and it made for a fun evening! 

He's swimming!!

No lessons! Just good 'ol Momma :-) 

I taught Jake too so felt pretty confident I could do the same for Justin! It took ONE DAY! Now he's swimming like a big boy! Across the pool, even a little freestyle action too! Ha!!SO proud of my big boy! No more puddle jumper for THIS kid!

SOUTH PADRE ISLAND-summer 2013!

....in pictures! 

A wonderful camping trip with good memories, great friends and a time we'll never forget!!! 

A week wasn't long enough!

Spent 2 fun-filled days at Schlitterbahn! 

Molly enjoyed the dog park and running on the beach!

Lots of beach fun! Building sand castles, playing in the waves and working on our tans!

Time with friends :-)

Walks on the water, throwing rocks and catching crabs!

Dinner at Pirate's Landing, complete with a parrot on my head!!

...oh and one on Brandon's head too!

Nothing better than frozen drinks by the pool!

Fun, family time on the water!!

The souvenir shop had a shark head as you walked in the door so you know they won our business!!!

Pretty water...a great scenery to relax and soak up the sun! We honestly look a few shades darker!!!!

And there's nothing better than hanging at the campgrounds! Playing games, cooking and listening to music!

The Pirate cruise...we didn't ride it but could hear the music and cannons every evening!!

Silly boys! Love them more than life! Yea they were dancing to "Beer Money"...soooo not appropriate!!! 

Summer!!!

Has been off to a fun start!!!!

We had our cousin Taylor's graduation party(in the Fall she'll be headed to SHSU where Brandon & I both graduated from!)

I LOVE THIS MAN! He's our world. He keeps me sane and helps me feel beautiful and special every day. If possible, I love him more than the day I met him. He's silly behind closed doors, when nobody is watching.  he is such a great Dad, he's a healthy role model for our boys...I could go on and on! 

Happy early Father's Day to the man of my dreams :-)

Cousins!!!! The high school grad is in the middle!

Lots of swimming lately!!

A pic of Gran with her great-grand kids! Please note that Justin was in big trouble for that face he made!!!!!! 

Gran with all of us, her grand kids! 

Then we headed to my good friend Kelly's house for some water park fun! Yea most neighborhoods have a pool, diving board & possibly a splash pad....not this!!!! It's a WATER PARK!!!! 

Crazy fun! Can't wait to go back!!!! Thanks guys for a super fun day! 

Golf camp!

I've never seen this boy SO focused! 

My boy is getting so big!!

Justin's 4th Birthday Party...PIRATE-style!

My sweet man had one heck of a swim party yesterday!!! Happy Birthday Justin! Hope you had a great day!

The big brother & his best bud, Luke!

Jake & the Neverland Pirates! 

Lots of yummy eats!!

Lots of the kiddos, wish I would've snapped this while all the kids were still there :-( 

Singing Happy Birthday! I think the snow cones were the kids favorite part...well and the swimming obviously!
