Long time, no blog!
No, but seriously, I really do have a good
reason for my long absence...actually, I've
got 4 {5 if you count the Hubs}very good reasons
I've been keeping busy lately!
I have missed blogging so!
{getting settled in a new house is time consuming!}
Especially when you have 4 munchkins
running around behind you undoing what
you just accomplished!
Such is the life of a stay at home Mommy!
When I say we've been busy,
we've been busy...here's what
we've been up to lately!
We are really enjoying our new home
and exploring all that it has to offer...
Lake Grapevine
{20 mins away!}
DFW's Founders Plaza Observatory
is Ethan's new favorite place,
you get to watch air planes land and take off!
{mini-Ritchie!}
Ethan got to meet the 'Real' Thomas
a few weeks ago! He was ecstatic :)
Fun time with new friends
at Jazz in the park!
A quick trip to the Botanical Gardens!
Campa and Lolli came down for the weekend and
the girls got to stay in a hotel and go to Disney on Ice!
My Lovely Princesses!
While the girls were being treated like princesses
Ethan and Daddy got to have a boy day
starting at Founders Plaza and Bass Pro Shops
Outdoor World!
{Sophie and I tagged along!}
And finally, to end their boy day
Ethan had his first Japanese steakhouse
experience...lets just say he's a fan, like
father, like son!
Our precious lil 'Star Student' of the week!
yeah...this happened, I'm surprised it hasn't happend
sooner! I'm sure he'll love this someday!
{only brother...3 sisters, he's going to
be one super hubby, just like his daddy!}
Enjoying dinner on the patio before it gets super HOT!!
{isn't she a doll?!}
EGL on Grad Picture day!
{is this is really happening?? My baby is almost
a Kindergarten graduate! :/ sniff, sniff!}
We LOVE the park!
my sweet big boy!
could it be more perfect? :)
random Thomas pic :)
a cool after school treat!
never a dull moment with this trio!
Miss Emma got to go on her very
{First fieldtrip} ever! And down here
in DFW where does a kinder class get
to go on their field trip? Legoland!!
Seriously? I think my first field trip was to
a dairy farm in the panhandle!
Way cool!
Abby, Ethan, Sophie and I dropped
our Emma girl off at school
and headed out on our own field trip
adventure to ride the train along Trinity River!
Really excited to be on the train!
Popcorn is a must!
I have a feeling that this is how I'll be
wearing my hair 99% of the time from
now on...it was SO HOT this past weekend!
My beauty Abby Beth enjoying the train ride!
Sweet Sophie Belle!

Class picture day for this beauty!
Women's event at church! YES! Please!
A few weekends ago we went to the
FW Arts Festival in downtown!
Really fun!
a little art fun!
checking out a cool booth!
This blue eyed beauty is sneaking up
on her 1st birthday and this Momma is
could already almost be 1? SLOW DOWN time!
We are all head over heels for her! She's got the
absolute sweetest personality, so laid back,
happy go lucky, and fun! We all can't wait
for our sweet "Bellie" as the kiddos affectionately
have nick named her {from her middle name, Belle} :)
to play with her in the mornings or after naps!
Pretty cute, huh!!
Panorama at Founders Plaza :)
Another fun new place we like to
go downtown, FW Water Gardens!
