Splash Park in Booneville

My cousin and his wife told my brother about this great free splash park where the kids could play. Here is Bobby running through the water.
Thanks, Gege for being an awesome nanny for the Beckman kids.

Leslie loved sitting on the frog and playing with the water coming out of the mouth.

Bobby loved it too.

Hi Daddy, we miss you!!!

Meet the Girls Tour

The kids and I are in Evansville for the first leg of our trip. My brother and I are introducing our girls to extended family. Natalie and Leslie are so cute and are really enjoying meeting everyone.
I have not started taking pictures but I will post a bunch when we get home.

In other news, today is our 9th Wedding Anniversary. Jason, thank you for 9 wonderful years and our two beautiful children. Our wedding day was a blessed and very exciting day. I will always remember your bright smile as I walked down the aisle. I love you very much and hope you like the gift I left for you.

Busy, Busy and the Mall...What?

We started off this busy day by visiting Great-Grandpop. He is recovering from a recent fall and hopes to go home soon after some more rehab. He looked great and has not lost his sense of humor. He told us three really funny jokes. Bobby loved visiting him because he got to watch the birds, play the piano, and eat warm cookies and muffins.

Our next stop on our busy day was Discover Mills Mall. What, the mall. Some of you may not know that I am not a big shopper and try to limit my visits to the mall. I average about 2 to 3 visits a year. So, why would I choose to take the whole family with me. I had a haircut scheduled for today and did not have time to take the family home before the appointment. Jason and the kids hung out in the Bass Pro Shop while I got my haircut. Then we had lunch as a family and rode the carousel. I did do some shoe shopping for the kids. My new favorite find is the CROCS outlet. Below is a short video of Bobby riding the train. He is growing up so fast. Last year he would not ride alone.

Picnic Time!!!

On Sunday we went to Stone Mountain Park for a picnic and the Laser Show. We had wonderful time with Uncle Matt, Aunt Christy, Drew and Natalie. Gege was a big help playing with all the kids. Best Buddies!!!

Our Cheerios Monster

Leslie loved the Laser Show for about 10 minutes and then she fell asleep.

My Beach Babies

We spent last week in Delray Beach for our annual summer visit to Grandma and Grandpa's house. Great-Grandmommy with the kids. We were all there together for one day and then she had to go home to Chicago. It was great to see her and introduce her to Leslie.Leslie loved being in the pool.

Watch out, Mommy!!!

The boys loved digging a big hole at the beach.

Leslie's introduction to the ocean. She liked better being held deeper in the water.
She spent lots of time under the umbrella playing and sleeping. She is the 1st grandchild to nap on the beach.

Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa for a great time. We all ready miss you!!!
