Dinner With Friends!

I am soooo behind on my blogging! Sorry guys.

Last Saturday, our friends the Arnolds held a fabulous BBQ. We had a great time!

The grown up table. I have not eaten on such fine china in many moons! It was great to have dinner with fantastic friends!

The kids table. Nate LOVED eating dinner with his friends!

After dinner, the kids and mommies played in Miss Lily's room. Nate found the purses and makeup right away! He loaded all the makeup in his purse and proceeded to take it to the living room so he could doll up dad! After dad's makeover it was my turn! Thanks Rikki for encouraging him in his purse pursuit! I hope you realize you now have to go see him on Broadway with me! LOL!

Many, many thanks to the Arnold clan for having us over for a wonderful evening!

Rodeo!

On Thursday night, we all headed to the rodeo. This is by far one of Nate's favorite things to do. All week, we had been talking to him about how all the kids would get into the ring and chase baby calf's. He informed us that he was a big boy and was going to do it. As soon as we got to the arena, Nate wanted to get into the ring. "Is it time yet mom" was a constant question! Here are some pictures of little man!

Every year the calvary comes out onto the field and shoots off a canon. We opted to keep him away for the blast.

Running out to get in line.

It's like Where's Waldo! Nate and Sean are in there somewhere!

Rodeo Parade!

I am not sure you can even call the event a parade! It consisted of a few fire trucks, a couple of horses, one bull rider, a John Deere tractor and a few classic cars. Hmmm....... Anyway, Nate LOVES parades so we decided to go. The temperature outside was a balmy 108 degrees, so of course, we fried! Here are a few pictures of our time at the "parade"!

Let's see if this works!
Woohoo, I think it does! Let me know if you guys can't access it.

Water Park Fun!

Sunday afternoon, we all headed to the local waterpark. I didn't think it was going to be hot enough but boy was I wrong! Sorry for the poor quality pictures, I had to secretly snap the photos as they are not allowed inside the park.

Little man is doing so well in the water! He now puts his face completely underwater and opens his eyes! Woohoo, go Nathan! Here are some shots of him playing in the wave pool.

Let's go to the park!

On Sunday morning, Nate and I headed to one of our favorite parks so daddy could sleep in.

Happy Birthday Uncle Kevin

Last Wednesday was Uncle Kevins birthday (Sean's brother). Since the boys had to work during the week, we decided to do a birthday dinner on Saturday night. He requested his mom's chicken recipe (it is delicious) and we made him a snicker ice cream pie. After dinner, the boys stayed up well into the night playing PS3 games.

Happy Birthday Uncle Kevin!
