Spring Break 2011

We had a fun filled Spring Break-my parents were in town for the impending arrival of a grandchild who didn't want to come join the fun.  We did everything in our power to get that kid to come but he was staying put.  Here are a few highlights and pictures.
  • Houston Rodeo-the boys love the rodeo and Owen and Noah got to go Mutton Bustin' (ride a mutton for as long as you last which in their case was about 3 seconds.
  • Visit to the Natural Science Museum with grandpa, grandma, and Lauren
  • Fishing at our favorite spot
  • Dinner with family
  • Watching Ramona and Beezus which has been a huge hit
  • Going to the beach
  • Celebrating Eli's much anticipated arrival
  • Dad's 33rd birthday. 


Noah ate more bait than the fish-don't worry we were using velveeta.



Owen has a small tolerance for fishing.



We had fun fishing but got skunked.  The boys love to fish with Grandpa


Lovin' the ocean no matter the weather.

Diggin' in the sand-his nick-name should be pig-pen

Waiting for baby Shepherd-and hopefully enjoying the ocean breeze.


Wanting to get in the water but getting cold so playing in the sand.


 
He loved the beach so much he'd lay on his stomach and wiggle.  He was trying to eat and put his face
 in the sand in this picture.


Can you get a sense of his glee?
 

10 days overdue-one patient mom to be.

 

 
 
Eli Jonathon needed to be coaxed out-they boys love him already.

Enjoying a family walk at East End Park for Dad's 33rd birthday.

  1. Tell Lauren I am super impressed with her patience--I don't know if I could go more than a week over before I told them to induce me. Someday we will make it down there to play in the ocean with y'all!
