Happy Father's Day

The kids sure do love their daddy! I am so blessed to have him as the father of my children! We love you Marc!











P.S. I am also so very thankful to have such wonderful fathers, Bryan and Harold, in my life. They have been amazing role models to me! I love you both so much!

Marc's Birthday

We celebrated daddy's birthday on Friday. I made him an oreo cake. We went to Chedders for dinner after he got home from work. Chedders is very similar to Applebees. The food was very tasty and the price was very reasonable. We enjoyed the cake when we got home. The cake turned out very yummy and rich...almost too rich. I think next time I am going to either make the icing out of cool whip and oreos and leave the cake the way it is or make the same icing and tone down the cake. Today is day four of eating the cake and we still have over half of the cake left. I think that we may have to waste some of it. This is why we need people close by to help us enjoy these things. I believe that he had a great birthday. I am so glad that this fine man was brought into this world...because I met him, fell in love with him, married him, and started a family with him. He is amazing! I don't know what I would do without him. :)

Trip to the Zoo

We went to the Fort Worth Zoo on Sunday June 12th. It was a free day event compliments of Marc's company, T.D. Ameritrade. You probably have already noticed that our family picture that was taken at the zoo is now our main picture at the beginning of our blog. It was a great day for us, but it was very hot. We ended up staying there about 4 1/2 hours or so. We took many breaks going in and out of the cooler buildings to help cool down the kids. We saw many animals of course, and enjoyed a nice cheeseburger and ice cream. They even gave us little backpacks with snacks and water. Grace really enjoyed Texas Town. There was an area there where you would pull on a rope and lots of water would come pouring out on you. All the other children were frightened but not Grace. She stayed right underneath the water and stuck out her tongue. She got completely soaked, but this was actually a good thing because it was over 100 degrees out and this helped her cool off a bit. She was so funny to watch dancing in the water. She loves water! Jonathan enjoyed the trip as well and he napped often. He made it without crying for the entire trip except for the last five minutes. We realized then that we had stayed long enough. We might go back again before we leave because they are having Veteran's day there on July 2nd.
