Flying L Ranch

We had a blast at the Flying L Ranch in Bandera, TX this past week. We got to meet new friends and had some neat family momemts we will never forget. The kids got to pony ride and Ryan learned archery. He even got to shoot a BB Gun. We all went on a trail ride and saw antelope, all types of deer, racoons, armadillo, skunks, fire flies, and cotton tail rabbits. On a drive to Kerrville for lunch, we even got to see longhorn cattle drinking out of a nearby creek. We ate smores every night and enjjoyed lots of other fun activities. Definitely a great place to bring a family and we really enjoyed ourselves.

Beautiful sunset on the ranch.

Two tired kids on the way back from Kerrville.

Iddy, Caden and Emi came down from Boerne to swim and have some s'mores!

Cake happenings...

I have started to make cakes for fun with Melanie. Check out our blog at http://twogirlsandacake.blogspot.com/ to see what we have been up to.

Girls Trip to Seattle

I had so much fun visiting Manisha and the family in Seattle with Melanie. Nila and Priya are still so sweet and cute. I think they both grew and inch since leaving Pearland!

Here are a few pics from Pike's Market and our night out to celebrate Melanie's birthday. Seattle is so beautiful and there were so many neat things to do. I have a video at the bottom of this post (hopefully) taken from Pike Place Fish Market where they throw your fish when you order them. Melanie and I both brought some home. Got crabs?

Got martinis?

All things messy!

I think Kaitlyn and Ryan have the idea...the more mess, the more FUN! We all had fun at the Circus. Ryan loved the motorcycles in the big cage and Kaitlyn liked all the animals.

A little bit of this and that...

Kaitlyn at the Pearland summer concert...the kids loved the music. They had bounce houses too and Ryan was all over that!

Ryan and Kasey with their t-ball trophies. Two proud ittle guys!

Ryan, Kaitlyn Nila and Priya! They have now moved all the way Seattle!! Kathy gets to go visit at the end of July...shhh, dont tell the kids.

Sadly for mom and dad, Kaitlyn has grown out of her crib!!! She can perch herself over the rail so it was time to move on out. It is so hard to get her to bed now!!!!

Ryan at vacation bible school

We had a mommy duck and her babies on our street last weeks. Kids loved it!

Feeding the ducks in the Edgewater subdivision. Kaitlyn loves wearing Ryan's rain boots.
