Houston

Me, Corb, Sweet Pea, and Bostie, went to see these cutie pies last week!  Here are a few highlights:


Chloe:  I think those flowers need some watering
Flowers: Mmmm, chlorine water. *choke*, "gasp!"


Sherie was nice enough to let us use her pool several times.  She even made snow cones for the kids.


Bring me a goblet of something refreshing to drink!!


Sword fight.  The ladies were dressed as princesses and were cheering them on from the sidelines. 

Corbin thought the order of these next 2 pictures was hilarious.  He wanted me to make sure and include this on the post:



Here's mom doing all the work.....

while Aunt Amber takes it easy!  (In reality we know that is absolutely NOT TRUE!!)

We went to Kohl's.  We paired up the kids and told them they could explore the store.  They were so excited.


Brityn and Channing off to see what they could see.


Corbin had Chlo and Bostie trapped like rats in a shopping cart.


Things were going so smoothly, until an older lady came up to Corbin and told him the store wasn't a playground and the shopping carts weren't toys.  This took the wind out of their sails & scared them to death, and so we left shortly after that to go eat at chick-fil-a.  Low and behold who is also eating there?  The mean lady!!  I really wanted our kids to run back and forth passed her booth yelling and being obnoxious, but I decided to be the bigger person and let the poor women just observe our circus from a distance. 

 
Nap time?  Yeah right.


Puppet show with plastic spoons and pipe cleaners.  Amber is so creative 


Children's Museum:




Chlo trying to choke down Tiffs Famous Spinach Potatoes:

Trying really hard not to gag.


Still there.


Then she spits the bite out into her had and says:  I just can't.  This is........this is really gross.

Cracked me up!  I don't think Amber was amused.

We had a really fun time.  There was also a hilarious incident involving a squirrel, but that really needs to be told in person.  Thanks Amber for a great time!

I tried to tell Ryan the story of the squirrel and I didn't get the reaction I was so hoping for. I even tried to spice it up a bit because I knew it wouldn't be the same unless you actually saw it in person and still not the response I wanted. I wish we had taken a picture. Never have I seen anything that funny from an animal. I love that you found a little picture of a squirrel for my cork board.

I know it's just not going to be the same retelling it! Especially to the hubby's. I still chuckle to myself when I think about that poor little thing face down in the dirt from a possible sugar overdose.
