Griffin has been asking for some time now when we are going to get to go to the beach. We have contemplated planning a beach trip with some of our friends, but schedules are so busy we have never made it happen. A family vacation to the beach is really not a good option for us right now with ours being so little. So, when I found out our district track meet would be in Kingsville this year, I talked Nathan into taking 2 dyas off and coming down with us. We left on Wed afternoon with the team and spent the night in Kingsville. The track meet was on Thursday (which we won!) and then we drove to Port Aransas Thursday evening. The boys all swam that night at the hotel and we hada a nice relaxing evening. The next morning we spent about 2 hours at the beach...and that was about all we needed. Griffin loved it and could have played all day but Tucker wanted nothing to do with the water (he loved the sand) and Reese just got filthy and ate sand :) All in all it was good family time. The waves were really choppy, but the sky was overcast so the weather was nice. We even made it back for Griffin's make up soccer game that evening.
This year at Children's Ark Open House the theme for Griffin's class was music. He, as usual, was not shy (as you can see)- i think performing is in his future. We always love this night where we can see all he boys artwork and let them show off what they have been learning all year.
We had another great year at the church retreat. This year was our last
shot at a family cabin, which made it much easier packing and planning
our time. The weather was wonderful and Reese loved the water. Tucker
stepped up this year and sang all by himself at the talent show- so
sweet. This is always one of our favorite weekends of the spring!
We got together with some people from our class at church at Zilker Park in March. It was a nice day and we rode the rain- something we hadn't done in a long time.
Nathan and I have been happily married for 7 years. We are the proud parents of two sons, Griffin and Tucker, and a sweet girl, Reese We love our family, our friends, and our church home.
