September 2013

Our month in review...

Tyler started preschool this year!  He is attending Messiah Lutheran.  The school is five minutes from our house and we have absolutely loved it there.  He is LOVING school.  The teachers and kiddos there have been wonderful.  His buddy Chance is in his class- they pretty much stick together!

First day of pre-school- September 4, 2013

And he's off!

While Tyler was at school...Mason and I got to play!  We went to the zoo with friends!

Mommy & Mase

Mason and Gracie

Whitten & Mason

All the kiddos...Gracie, Mason, Whitten, Reid and Crockett

Our family + Grandpa Bruce went to Port Aransas for Travis to go to CE by the Sea.  He was in class learning about veterinary things while we played.  We had a great time- it was the boys first time to the Texas coast.

Our best attempt at getting the boys to look at the same time!

We drove to Dallas to celebrate Cade's 2nd birthday!  We had such a fun time celebrating our sweet nephew.  

girls night with college roomies to start our weekend- love these girls so, so much!

We surprised Pappy with a visit at school- he loved it and the boys had a blast running around the gym with the balls!

Couldn't resist posting this one...sweet Mase

Best pic I could get with all the boys!  

Grandsons and Pappy...fun times

I ended the month by going to Roundtop with friends!  Allison, Christian and I drove to College Station for a night then off to Roundtop the next day.  We had such a fun time shopping, eating, and having a mommy-break!

The girls at Cafe Capri in Bryan- we loved seeing Courtney and Mackenzie

Log Country Cove

We just got back from Lake LBJ Log Country Cove.  We had the BEST time!  My family was unable to go this year because Colby's best friend was getting married in Colorado that weekend.  Our friends the Hembrees and the Wilsons came with us.  The Hembrees brought their boat so we had a lot of fun boating time- tyler loved riding on the boat!  We swam a lot at the house, took the boys fishing and to the "jumpoline"- a water trampoline.  Here are a few pics of our fun time...

Mason's First Haircut

I finally did it...cut Mason's hair!  My dad (Pappy) was starting to call him the blonde Sampson.  He had a few little curls in the back and I knew once we cut it off he would not look like such a baby anymore (which is a little sad).  It was time and he did great, no crying!  All my boys get their hair cut by Cheryl, Travis' office manager, and she does such a good job...and they love HER so that helps!  Here are the pics!

Before..

Sweet little blonde curls

Tyler goes first- he is holding "Roni" the clinic stuffed horse who needs to have his cape on during the haircut:)

They both look sweet with their new do's
