The museum of life and science

We took a trip up to the museum of life and science today for a star wars exhibit. It turned out to be so crowded and not a lot about star wars and much more about special effects in the movies. It all would have been much more interesting if my children were tall enough to see over the crowds of people blocking thier way!




So we took a trip down the dinosaur trail








the barn





and petting zoo














, and finally to the butterfly house














and had a fantastic time anyways. Oh, and our little friend dyland thompson and his dad got to come too!

Fun at chick fil a

We went to chic fil a on Monday, labor day. It was so much fun! I absolutely love this place, almost as much as the kids!

Bellas birthday

I made Bella a special birthday cake for her to smash into on her special day! She had the best day bring sung to by each member in her family several times. She would get a huge grin and bounce herself back and forth!
Bella is such a specially little girl. She is so cuddly. By far my most snuggly baby. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I didn't put her down for 10 months and she loves her binky, my only successful binky baby so far. Jackson endearlibgly named her googoos which everyone including big Chauncey now folloelws suit.
She is talking a lot for a just one year old and my favorite is as soon as she sees Jackson she lights up and squeals Jack jack!
I love oyu forever my little angel baby.

Our Cruise with the Whites and Walkers-Part 1

I will post e underwater camera pictures next- Cruse- Part 2. This is some of the pictures from the ship!

Two weeks after graduation we took our first Cruise with our best friends from Dental School Byce and Krystal White and Caprice and Johnathan Walker. They will forever be our friends. We had such an amazing time with these guys and really fell in love with them as couples so much! They were both so much fun to be with! Its amazing how much more fun we are as couples when the kids are away and we get to just play!

This cruise was the best thing Chauncey and I have ever done before, and we have been on quite a few vacations together and apart. I would highly recommend it! A big shout out to John and Caprice for setting this whole thing up! I can't wait for next year!!!!!

On our last night at dinner with our servers George and Constantine. They were so much fun!

My personal favorite picture...

The girls....We had the best time together. I love these girls so so much!

Me eating my very first escargot(sp?). It was just fine and a little bit tasty. Bryce and John tasted it with me. Everyone else chickened out!

Before dinner in front of the perfume shop. We went in every nite before dinner and tried something on. I have been wanting Juicy couture perfume for a long time and she had the sample but nothing to buy, so I kept asking her for the sample to "try on" several nites in a row!

Us in front of our ship "The Majesty of the Seas".

The girls at dinner.

The guys at dinner-Bryce is hysterical with all of his funny faces.

Here we were departing Miami.

Enjoying a little Ice Cream!!
