Let's Go to the Beach!!

We packed up the Sequoia and headed down to Galveston Beach for a little rest and relaxation!!  We arrived late in the day, but we just couldn't wait to head down to the beach to check it out!

Alyssa is ready for the beach!


It's hard to contain the excitement!








Emily's first experience with beach sand!




Alyssa, Joshua, and Uncle Mike headed for the ocean!


Hmmm... little bit of seaweed here... there must be a way across!


Then again, maybe not...


Mom and Emily






She likes the water!








Joshua and Alyssa playing in the waves!








Run!!














Alyssa, Uncle Mike, and Joshua playing in the waves!


That Uncle Mike sure is a good sport to spend his vacation with these guys at the beach!!

Emily Puts on Her Running Shoes... Watch Out!

There will be no catching her in these!



Last Day of Pre-School!

What a year at Covenant Lutheran!  Alyssa survived her first year and she did it in style!  Joshua finished up his last year and is headed for kindergarten!!

Last day of school... should see some GREAT smiles here!














Alyssa and Ms. Callie


Joshua's graduating class


Silly faces!


Joshua and Sam


They did it!!


Joshua's graduation gift... it's a puzzler!

Happy Birthday, Grandma!

Grandma celebrated her 49th birthday this year!!  Happy Birthday!!

Best part of birthdays... presents!!




A silver ball!  Good choice, Uncle Mike!


Look at that ball shine!!




Hope you brought your swimsuit because it's a sprinkler party!!








Emily is content to play in the bucket... no sprinklers for her or you'll regret it!






All work and no play for Alyssa!




Grandpa out enjoying the warm weather!


Time for some brownies!!




Happy Birthday to you...


Make a wish!


Way to go Grandma!
