Scenes of summer

A few random pictures from summer

 This was driving next to us on the way to Florida

 Pensacola, FL blue angel fighter jets.

 Rachel and Spencer took the red eye to Pensacola and had us pick them up, despite us only having one available seat between our 4 kids.  I know Spencer looks thrilled, but he agreed to marry Rachel after this, so I guess it wasn't too much of a deterrent.

 Mesker Park Zoo

 The flag cake I have been waiting a year to make....and then someone brought the same cake to the party....failure. 

 Summer tea parties

 City Meet boy - 6 and under boys freestyle- 4th place

 Lily and I on a Sunday

We aren't getting much use out of our princess dresses these days, and Lily decided to dress up her brothers. This will haunt him one day. She definitely needs a sister.  Poor boys. 

Road Trip 2011 Part 2- Enchanted Rock

That night we stayed at a KOA cabin and grilled hamburgers, which was wonderful... air condition and everyone had their own bed. The next day we hiked at Enchanted Rock State Park. The wind was blowing so hard, that no one was hot.

The kids hiked all the way up, through the cave, and all the way down by themselves. They were troopers.

Gary, Berk, and Em took the kids into a cave on the top of Enchanted Rock. Baby B and I stayed and he became my photo subject until he fell on his head and got a bloody nose, poor kid. It looks flat, but not flat enough for a baby learning to walk.

Road Trip 2011 Part 1-the Alamo

Berk and Emily came to visit for the week, so we decided to take a road trip west. The first day we stopped at Buccees for some beaver nuggets and fudge, and onto the Alamo for some virgin margaritas and fried ice cream.

I am not a fan of margaritas, but Miss L was in love with them and drank them both.
