Happy Anniversary, May 29th!

Happy Anniversary to Granny and Papaw!!!


I think Granny said they will be married 38 years on Thursday. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!



Aunt Michelle had a great idea: To celebrate their anniversary, she baked some cupcakes, and then we sneaked the boys over the her camper and let them decorate the cupcakes for Granny and Papaw. Then the boys got to surprise Granny and Papaw with their sweet creations while we were there. Needless to say, the boys absolutely LOVED it, and had a BLAST!!!

Coloring the cupcake icing, with icing markers. They really enjoyed these. Talk about easy!

Here are the finished cupcakes that the boys decorated....too cute!

Notice the two cupcakes on here that are drowned in icing...the one of the top right was claimed as "Seth's" so he piled the icing on. The one right below that was claimed as "Levi's" so he piled the icing on his to. They really did enjoy this little project....especially eating it. :)

Levi and Aunt Michelle, bringing the cupcakes over to surprise Granny and Papaw.

And surprised they were! The boys loved it!!! They both got big hugs and kisses, and then sang "Happy Anniversary" to the tune of Happy Birthday. :) Then they dug into their cupcakes.

Yum, Yum!!!

Memorial Day: pickin' and a grinnin'

My view, on our way to the park....I had to run to keep up with Seth on his bicycle. Stephen was on another bicycle, keeping up with Levi. They get in a hurry on the way "TO" the park, but not so much on the way back from the park. haha


Seth, having fun, and saying "Mommy, take my picture". :)




Levi, showing me his muscles. He said they were playing and getting a good workout, so he could get big muscles. (See we are at least teaching them to love exercise!)




This is my favorite! He looks so funny, straining so hard to make that muscle look bigger! haha :)



Seth wouldn't show me his muscles, just some silly faces...



Daddy, helping Seth across the monkey bars.



Levi did most of them all by himself...what a strong little boy!

Levi had Daddy make him and Seth up an obstical course...then after they did that one, Levi made up one for Daddy. They all did it together...and the boys got a big kick out of Daddy doing their obstacle course.


Daddy doing the monkey bars too....I loved seeing those huge arm muscles flexing...my own personal eye candy. :)





Seth, sitting in the floor of our camper..he was playing with some little balloon candles. I thought he looked so cute, just sitting there, that I had to take his picture.



Time for some ol' fashioned pickin' and a grinnin'...... Yeehaw!
Stephen and his Aunt Brenda brought out their guitars, and started playing. I love hearing him play, and sing!


Seth was in a daze, just listening to his Daddy's music. I couldn't resist a "close-up" of this adorable little face.


Oops...and then the mischievous look shows up...unfortunately I see this look way to often! haha


Is this how your supposed to wear your sandals?! haha Seth was being silly....


Levi with a face covered in Sidewalk Chalk....being silly.



Granny and Levi, fishing. Isn't this a cute picture?! I love it!



Peaceful moments....priceless!

Memorial Day: Swimming

I had been laying out in the sun, and since I was in my bikini already, Stephen asked if I would want to take the boys swimming. Of course! I was sweating and I love to swim, so bring it on! haha

Here, I'm trying to coax the boys in the water.


Notice their flippers! Granny got them these, along with goggles, and snorkel. They will have a blast with these in the pool.


Slowly getting a little deeper....





Say Cheese for Daddy!


It was still really windy, so the boys were having a blast jumping in the waves.


Levi was so proud that he was swimming fast with his flippers on.


Seth wasn't as brave as his brother and I had to keep saving him...I was like "put your feet down son, you can touch!" ha-ha


My little fish.....


They were having so much fun!


Is it time for lunch already?! Ok....

Memorial Day Weekend: Sunday

Sunday:
Again, nothing really planned, just relaxing (or as much relaxing as you can do when you have a 4 and 5 year old sons.)

Stephen took Toby for a swim in the lake. That dog LOVES the water!


We had a bad storm on Saturday night. So Stephen and his dad had to "un-sink" the boat, and get everything dried out. I slept through it, but thankfully Stephen was awake, watching the weather and keeping us safe. :) I just love that man! :)


I made Seth's Favorite: Banana Pudding. Here he is licking the bowl.

After dinner the boys got this wild idea, to tie up their Aunt Michelle. Don't know who they get this from....

Notice their proud Daddy, watching and laughing! haha

So, then he decides to just go help them out a little! haha :) Poor Aunt Michelle!

Seth took this one of Mommy. Notice it is done by a short little guy...looking up! haha :)

He also took this one of me, since I was trying to take his picture, he wanted to take mine.
