Moody Gardens Christmas!

We surprised the boys with a quick trip to Moody Garden's for some Christmas fun together. We hadn't been there since the boys were much younger, so none of us really remembered anything about it. I bought the tickets like a month before, but we didn't tell the boys until about a week before. They struggled with not knowing what we were doing and tried all week to get anything out of us. We just let it all unfold as it happened--no hints. It was fun! We started by checking into the hotel. It was beautifully decorated with all kinds of Christmas stuff. We got ready for a surprise dinner and magic show. It was really good. The dinner was set up like a banquet and that really threw the boys for a loop. We shared a big round table with another family and I guess the boys hadn't really experienced that before. They illusionist guy was really good--great show full of singing, dancing, and illusions. Then we went to the Festival of Lights--really pretty. Of course, the boys had to go swimming--that's always their favorite part when we stay in a hotel. We finished the evening with a late dinner in the room. Neither of the boys had ever experienced getting room service so they thought that was cool. Poor Cam fell asleep before his food arrived. I had fun with you guys. I love you Davy, Cam, and Caden! You three mean everything to me. Merry Christmas!

Caden and Almost Cam's Christmas Choir Show

The boys had their big Christmas choir show last night right after Landon's birthday dinner. Cam got a migraine minutes before they had to be there and just couldn't go in for the pre-show rehearsals. Caden actually said "I can't believe your doing this just to get out of the show" as Cameron agonized in the front seat-lol. Brothers! Anyway, Caden had his best performance yet! I was really proud of him! I had to fill in for Cam for the "look somewhere in the sky for no reason" pose that usually accompanies these events. We missed you Cam, but we are so glad you're better today. I love you boys!

San Antonio with Boys and Michelle!

It's never too late, right? Again, I'm kind of having a busy season in my life, so I'm late posting some things from the summer. But I didn't want to skip this one, it was too fun! There's nothing better than hanging out with my sister and our three boys! After our summer visit with Nana, we headed to San Antonio for a trip--totally pulled this one right out of our you know whats! We had a blast and just did whatever we wanted. We stayed in a cheap motel so we could spend our money on the fun stuff!

Here we are at the Ripley's Believe it or Not museum--cool stuff!



I really hope Cam doesn't get this tall......


Cam made a buddy!




Sister!


Sweet cousin riding the trolley.....




There's nothing better than a late night wrestling match! I knew it would be a good fight. Cam has been able to get me down for close to a year at this point--but Michelle's way stronger than me. It ended up a tie! We had to stop the fight before we go kicked out of the hotel--it went on for about 45 minutes!





Sea World!





Lots of roller coasters!



I had to show this so we could remember that Landon was in a wheel chair the whole time! It didn't slow us down a bit!


River raft ride! By the way, I'm the one that got soaked! You know how there's always that one person? Yep, it was me!


Cuties!


The Shamu Show--awesome! We got soaked!


We found a little time for some shopping.....


I love you guys!
