Jimmy Buffett

We went to the Jimmy Buffett concert with a bunch of neighbors at Pizza Hut Park in Frisco. I had only heard stories, but never personally experienced it before! The concert was great, but to tell the truth, the tailgating was much more of a sight to see. Tons of RV's, pimped out golf carts, music, drinks flowing - you get the picture. Now I know exactly what the Parrot head culture is all about! Next year, I think we'll just tail gate. That was the highlight, for sure!

Ava turns 4!

Ava's 4th Birthday was May 21st. She's such a big girl now! I can't believe how quickly time has passed. She says certain things are "baby things" now and not for her. She's all about big girl stuff like fancy clothes, princesses, barbies, Strawberry Shortcake and the such. The phrases she's been using lately have been hilarious too. We celebrated her 4th birthday with a party at Build A Bear with some of her close girl friends from the neighborhood and her preschool. Afterwards, we had Chick-Fil-A and cupcakes in the Mall Food Court. It was a hit!

Mia had fun too, but tired of the Build A Bear activities pretty quickly. She preferred to wander the mall with Pop Pop and I had to help create her bear for her! She loved the lunch and especially the cupcake, however! She dug right in, no hands, just all mouth on the cupcake icing! Too funny!

March Updates

Here are some snip-its of what we've been up to lately. March has been very busy with birthday parties, Spring Break (with visits to the Arboretum and the Zoo) and dance class. In between has been colds for all and an ear infection for Mia. Not fun on that front, but we've been managing to still have fun and enjoy the awesome Spring weather here (although extremely windy!).

Birthday Fun!

Ava and Mia had a blast at our neighbors' birthday party at Pump it Up. Mia was getting in there just like one of the big girls - so fearless it's a little scary! She especially enjoyed the princess cupcake!

Snow Day January 2011

Happy New Year and Happy Snow Day! TX weather takes us on a roller coaster ride again. Yesterday was sunny in the 60's and today we get 4-5 inches of snow! Crazy! The girls had fun playing out front. Some neighbors had the same idea, so they got to play with them as well. This was Mia's first real snow experience - she was only 3 months old last year when we got snow. She loved it! Especially the snow eating part. It's wrapping up out there now, but maybe no school/work tomorrow? We'll see ...
