Brock's 26th Birthday


Yesterday was Brock's 26th birthday so we spent the afternoon at the beach in Galveston it was so much fun! then afterward we went and got ice cream at Ben & Jerry's


Mermaid Rian (good way of containing your kids so they can't run away)
Brock's sand ball creation and my dellapitated sand castle


The kids helping build the castle

swimming in the ocean, or standing because I really didn't wanna get to far out! some guy on the beach said recently they were on shark watch cause someone sited one! ahh~


Mad likes to play by himself so ry can't take his toys and mom can't tell him no sand in the mouth ha ha ha.

Rian collecting sea shells, surrounded by tons of big whole shells yet she went after the tiniest broken pieces

She seems to make new friends where ever she goes!

Fun weekend with the ellis's!! (MASS PICS)

So our friends Rachel and Josh Ellis and their little girl Maddison came down for the week and we had so much fun! so here are the pics that josh took with his new spiffy camera! We went to San Antonio and saw the Alamo and went to the river walk then the next day we went to Kemah boardwalk and then out to dinner for Brock's b day and then to the aquarium in downtown! It was so fun!

The carousel at the Aquarium in downtown Houston. who says you have to be little to ride!!




The Ferris wheel was so fun it wen t faster than normal ones kinda scary!
Up in the bubble in the sting ray exhibit the girls loved it!

Rian could not get enough she pet a sting ray, a shark, a star fish and a crab! Maddox on the other hand wanted nothing to do with those slimy critters!


And of course we had to take our friends to visit Kemah boardwalk! Here they are playing at the splash pad!


The girls walked around like this all day every day it was so stinkin cute~ oh and kept referring to each other as friend like " friend, wanna play friend?"

Rian is very very dramatic and this is her pretending to be scared of the train even though she has ridden it hundreds of times!

And this is Rian kissing "friend" she is a very passionate two yr old! lol

Gotta love random photos!
