4th of July!

We had an eventful 4th of July this year. Basically it was a family reunion. Everyone came in this weekend, and I mean EVERYONE! I am not real sure that has happened since I graduated college....We have all kinda gone different directions and don't all bombard mom and dad at the same time too much, But we did this weekend!

On Saturday, everyone came to Fort Worth and we went to the horse races at Lone Star Park. It was Tyler & Nicole; Jordon & Lori; Cameron & Melisa; Me & Mark; and Jordan and Landman. MeeMaw and Pops opted to stay at our house and babysit Reid and Ella. An entire day at the races would just be too much for them yet. Everyone had a good time...except my husband who LOST every single race! He had a really BAD day at the betting window! Thankfully we also had seats inside - so when it poured rain for about an hour - we got to stay cool and dry. Cameron, Melisa, Tyler, Nicole, Jordan and Landman stayed for the fireworks after the races. Me, Mark, Jordon and Lori all headed back. I was missing me some twin lovin' and it was WAY past our bedtime now! LOL!

Landman and Jordan at the horse races! Even Landman and Jordan won more money than my husband! Tsk Tsk Tsk

On Sunday we drove to Comanche to spend the day with everyone at Meemaw and Pops house. I decided I had better get the twins pictures before they got totally dishevled! Of course Landman had gone to Comanche the night before so the hopes of a complete kid photo were dashed!

Are they not just the two cutest things ever? I mean!


Playing in their corner while Pops snaps pictures!

Typical...my hubby reading the newspaper.

The twins' stylist, Melisa, (LOL) putting Reid to sleep!

Jordon and Lori's dog Abbey decided that the water looked pretty good too!

Had enough!

Abbey waiting on Jordan to throw the football for her.

My little Lola was protecting the twins while they napped. I like to think that they smell like me and that is her way of being close to me! She is such a sweet little girl! I miss my Lola.

Auntie Nicole did not want her picture taken.

But I insisted!

Typical look for Uncle Cameron.

Reidy Pete!

Ella rarely leaves her Meemaw's arms.

Whiffleball game with Uncle Cameron and Tyler.

Uncle Jordon, Aunt Lori, and the hubby. Don't they all look enthused!
