The Astros won it all!!

One of the best things about having a son is the sports.  Seriously, I know girls play sports (and I hope Adly does) but it's not the same.  really, it's not.  Not that I won't be super excited to cheer my girl on.  It's just so fun to get so pumped up for those little boys. 

We love it!

This year they won the playoffs for their league.  It was awesome!!!

 Then, for selling the most tickets out of ALL of T & C, the Astros got to go on the field at the RR Express game and stand w/ the players for the  national anthem.  Same thing last year...must be the great family support! It is so sweet to see those little boys out there w/ those big boys.

 



Missy, Mimi, Biggin', Dakota & Blane all came to support him!  Thanks, family.

Already got our beach trip in!

This was our first trip w/o my family.  We actually managed great and had a blast.

They were SO ready for this!

 Holt is doing this a lot of the time..."treasure hunting"

 I would show you the pic of the sand castle we made, but John's not a fan of me showing him topless! ;)

 Adly would play and then come rest and eat...often.  My kind of girl.

 just sweet

 Sometimes they love each other.

 We didn't catch anything, but it was fun.  It's just not the same w/o Biggin' & his gear.

 Holt's favorite meal...CRAB!  & he shelled and ate every bit...seriously.

 We went crabbing for the first time.  It was so cool.  Raw bacon or chicken, string and a net...that's it.

Holt is putting this guy to sleep.  Crabs love their bellies rubbed.  Really funny.

This will be our new beach tradition.

 Corpus Christie Aquarium...so fun!

 This is our favorite part.  This stingray loved us.

We had so much fun!  My kids are finally getting big enough where it's fun to do things like this!  Looking forward to next year.  Thinking Missy & Davey will be there w/ a handful!  Mimi & Biggin'?

Necessary...

Adly went through a phase (about 4 days) where she said she "needed" to wear these glasses to see.  It was hilarious!  She would take them off and squint, then say "See, I need them or I can't see."  I'm pretty sure they are inspired by her cute friend, Finnley, who has beautiful, red (for real) glasses.

Spring Sing and the last day of school for Adly

Friday was Adly's last day of school before summer.  We have one more year at our wonderful school...before Kindergarten!  I will cherish every minute of it.  Maybe I'll do a "Pic a day at HCC" (sort of like your year for Livi, B.).  That would be cute.  Either way I'll be bawling at the end of it.  This might seriously be the BEST school ever.

The pics never turn out that great at these.  But, there she is...at her Spring Sing.  We got front row seats (thanks, B).  I'll have them again for the Christmas program...they raffle them off and guess who won?!

 Her Mimi came too.

 We'll miss Mrs. Q

 & Miss Karen.

carpet hockey

Maybe I should clarify...it's only called hockey b/c the ball is dropped and they say "Face off, Center ice".  After that, it's pretty much soccer.  Oh, except there's a penalty box too.  It's their favorite thing.  There's a new one now called "Sock Golf"...great!

carpet hockey...

This is the kind of stuff that goes on in my living room.  I don't love it.  I'm always afraid something is going to get broken.  But, my husband doesn't listen.  So, on it goes.  Hockey, in my living room...

They love it!

 John breaks a sweat every time they play.  seriously!  Adly's sitting out in the this one b/c she got a 5 second penalty for pushing.

 She's back at it! (notice the pillows and throw covering the fireplace...danger!)

 Holt can make some serious goals w/ this kick!

 Tiny too...

 Woo hoo! ...I guess.

A day fit for princesses!

(Wow, today Missy said "Do you blog any more?".  So, here I am...)

I know everyone else has posted their Princess Wishes pics long ago...except me!  So, here they are.  It was such a fun day.

I thought Adly would, for sure, pick one of her Disney Princess dresses for the show.  But, she picked this cute hand me down from Livi.  She decided to just be Princess Adly, I guess.

Adly & Jess ready for the show...

the wave

Adly got Holt to practice her dancing...

Ready for the Daddy/Daughter Dance (like the crocs w/ the dress?)

Jessica, Livi, Adly & Snow White!

Sexy Jasmine!

The balloon lagoon!!
