We actually have been pretty busy lately, but it's been a good busy. The kind of busy where you are having so much fun the days just seem to fly by. We have taken lots of walks outside, which both kids LOVE and Mommy and Daddy get some exercise in too. Summer vacation starts in 6 days!! YIPEEE!!! I'm hoping for a fun but relaxing summer. With 2 kids I don't know if thats possible :-) Should be interesting to say the least. Here's what we've been up to so far.
Papa D started his bike ride on Saturday. He actually started on Wednesday at the Gulf of Mexico. He rode from there to Huffman, and then on Saturday he started his ride from Huffman. These are pics from Wednesday when he dipped his tire and toes in the water to signify the beginning of his ride. Ella got in on the toe dipping action :-)
Saturday was my school districts employee picnic at a local ranch. There was bbq and a lot of fun things for the kids to do. Unfortunately it was really hot and most of the stuff was too big for Will to enjoy (maybe next year), but he still had a little fun. We only stayed a couple of hours because of the heat and it was cutting into nap time and the meltdown Will had signaled it was time to go :-)
Here he is enjoying some of the things that were toddler friendly.

The boy LOVES to slide!!
Friday night was Will's recital at school. All of the classes participate (even the little babies). Last year Will was about 8 months old so he just sat in an exesaucer, in a very cute Pooh outfit, while a short little song played. So I was really excited to see him up there dancing around. His class was marching and dancing to "The Ants go Marching." His whole class looked so cute in black shorts and red shirts with little antenna headbands. But, as soon as the curtain opened and the music started, Will saw me and burst into tears and started crying "mama." It broke my heart then but is now fairly comical. We got a few pictures, but he wasn't in a very good mood to say the least. Oh well, maybe next year.

I think this may be our first family photo
Papa and Ella -- side story, Ella got really fussy right at the beginning of the program. Papa got her and she immediately calmed down. We call him the "baby whisperer" because he can ALWAYS calm her when she's fussy!!
Memaw and Grandaddy
This pic sums up the performance :-)
Bonus pic, isn't she so cute
