It's a bird, no it's a plane, no it's Ben trying to outdo Hulk Hogan....

We had yet another fantabulous weekend. We ventured to the land of endless 8:00pm shows, put - put, go-carts, swimming, and more banjos than I have ever seen. Yes..... you guessed it.......Branson. My aunt offered us one of her condos and we are all about free vacations! So we packed up (everything but the cat I think.......you never know what you are going to need with kiddos around!) and headed there. We had so much fun taking the kids swimming, to the Titanic museum, to the Presley's, and to the Wax Museum. Not including all the ice cream and other little things we got to do.

Tyler said his favorite was swimming and seeing the Titanic museum. Ben enjoyed the Presley's and swimming with the boys. And me..........well I enjoyed not having to do laundry or cleaning up or cooking for a couple of days.

Don't ya just love summer? Here are some pictures of our weekend getaway.

Tyler and my niece enjoyed stopping and having their picture taken


Benjamin was so tired by the time we got to the wax museum

arrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!


and of course my favorite picture of the weekend! Ben always cracks me up!

Weekend of R and R

I can't believe it is already half way through June! Time is flying by! We certainly enjoyed this past weekend! It was so very relaxing! We made a trip back home, and enjoyed the company of family and friends. My grandma was sooooo soooo very helpful with the boys. Ben and I got to enjoy dinner with some good friends of ours from high school. We also enjoyed a mini shopping spree at Tanger and my nephews birthday party! Now onto unpacking and getting things back to normal. But what fun it was!

Benjamin and his Papa on the tractor. He had so much fun!

I am sure you can tell by the look on his face.......he loved the rides!

Tyler only has one more week of school left.......and then on to the second grade.

Aren't They Cute

This morning we had a "mini" photo shoot of our own in the backyard. The boys were very good sports considering I interrupted their Scooby Doo movie. As you can see by the pictures it was so bright outside there is some serious squinting going on. But aren't they cute!?

As you can see Tyler is sporting a new (as he calls it) baseball haircut.

Benjamin was the hardest to get to sit still. But he finally lasted for a few pictures.

Grady will be 7 weeks on Tuesday. I can't believe how fast it has gone by.
