Incredible Pizza

We went with Jen and the kids to a place called Incredible Pizza. It has all sorts of games and ride toys, and even bowling for kids, plus a pizza buffet. The kids really enjoy it! You win tickets at each game, so of course that was motivating. Some of the machines had been hung up from the previous person, and when the maintenance guy would come "fix"it, it would start spitting out all these tickets that had been held in for a while--boy did the kids think that was exciting!

Aggieland Fun with Zeke

We spent last weekend in College Station and Zeke was staying with us for a few days-the kids had a fun time! We went to 2 or 3 different parks, and also up to the campus (we are trying to go ahead and begin the brainwashing that is necessary for these children of Aggies!). I know I"ve said it a hundred times, but I love watching these cousins play together. We love Zekie and Kae Kae like our own, and are so thankful for the fun times they have together!

Grandpa and Gran Gran's House

We recently enjoyed a visit to my parent's house. We haven't been able to go there too often since Bryan started school, and when we are there, it's usually a rush visit. It was really nice to just be able to relax and let the kids enjoy being with their grandparents. Jack and Grandpa dug for worms so we could go fishing, and we went fishing in my Dad's new pond--both Jack and Callie caught a fish everytime they put their cane pole line the water since Dad has stocked it so well! Jack enjoyed helping Grandpa cook breakfast, and Callie helped Gran Gran make cookies. We went to the Tyler Zoo one day, which was fun. My dad actually worked there as a teenager! True story: While he was working there, there was a time when they needed to do something like health maintenance on the crocodiles they had there (3), and they couldn't figure out how to catch them from the pond they resided in. So, my dad offered to SWIM OUT THERE AND WRESTLE THEM ONE AT A TIME TO THE BANK for a little extra pay...he got out to the middle of the pond, and all 3 crocodile heads disappeared slowly under the water...my Dad decided he had made a poor decision and headed for the shore! Truely, although it's hard to believe after that story, my Dad is an intelligent man! He blames it on his "young, immature ways" at the time! We also helped Dad celebrate his 69th birthday...he doesn't look a day over 55 to me!

Allison's Shower

Allison recently had a wedding shower at her hometown church in Baytown. The hostesses did a great job, and it was a lot of fun. She got tons of nice things!! Callie and Macie both attended, though Macie used the time for her afternoon nap, as did Kae Kae. Quite a few people were there, including Allison's childhood friend Amanda, whom you see doing the silly face with Alli. I also love the picture of Shirley Cox, Bobbie Brodsgaard, and Cindy Reick doing the "Paris Hilton" pose!
