HELLO! HAPPY 62nd BIRTHDAY Grampy! We spent the day with Grampy on his birthday and visited Grammy in San Antonio! We went to the CoSIDA (College Sports Information Directors of America) kickoff luncheon at the convention to watch Grammy receive her 25 year service award! It was so neat that Grammy's boss is the president of CoSIDA this year and presented her award to her! Grammy went to her 1st CoSIDA convention in 1983 in San Diego, California! We are so proud of you & love you LOTS!!

Jumping Party

hello! we have discovered a place called "Jumping Party" here in waco where kids can go and jump! they have a little toddler area and parker had a blast! he had more fun outside the jumping thing. we enjoyed taking him and letting him enjoy something different than his toys at home!

a special visit

i love it that parker & landry are starting to notice each other! the bryce family came down on thursday for jon's graduation. we went to visit them at their house on saturday! we went to visit so we could see ashton's softball game! she did GREAT of course & we had a great time visiting!

OUR Weekend Mornings

this is so funny & i knew i had to share it! lately, when parker wakes up in the mornings, he immediately says "side" and wants to go play outside. he is obsessed with being outside. i always tell that he has to put his shoes on before he can go outside. here are the pics of him in his pj's outside at 7am. he throws most of his fits over coming inside for the evening. fun times!!

Happy Mother's Day and we hope everyone has a GREAT weekend!!!! We are spending Saturday with Ricci's mom "Nana" and Sunday with my mom "Grammy"!!!

Thanks Nana & Pop

Parker loved the flavor ice that he had tonight for dessert! Nana & Pop gave him them in his Easter basket. I can't decide which thing was his favorite. It's a close tie with the flavor ice pops & the chocolate covered marshmallow bunny! Yummy! Thanks again Nana & Pop!!

MY "BOO BOO"

My "Boo Boo"

Lately, "Boo Boo" has meant several things in our household. First of all, Ricci calls Canton "Boo Boo" and of course Parker has also started calling Canton that.
Yesterday, Parker was running across our driveway and fell. He skinned his knee, didn't cry and was bleeding. His daddy was so impressed that none of it seemed to bother him. He said "That's my boy". Parker got up quickly and started running again. Ricci picked him up to check out his knee and could barely get a quick look in before he was kicking to get down!! Our first "Boo Boo" to require a band-aid!

Our trip to the ZOO

I haven't been to the zoo in forever! I decided since the daycare was closed on Good Friday and I had to take the day off, that we would go to the zoo. Ricci also decided to take the day off and go with us, what a treat!! It was fun & Parker really enjoyed it!

Happy Retirement POP!!
