Summer Fun

The girls and I just got back from visiting our parents.  Every summer, the girls are "lavished" by the grandparents (both sets!) with fun trips, events and cool stuff to do.  This year was no different.

 We took a trip to Galveston.  The girls especially loved the ferry boat... go figure!  The girls also posed in front of Randy's all time favorite store... "Col. Bubbie's Strand Surplus Senter".  They sell military gear.

 Here's a picture of a yellow and black swallowtail butterfly.  Pretty

 The girls spent some time with their cousin Brandon, who is currently living with my folks for the summer while he works at one of the local plants.

And finally, while we were away, I got a call from the orthodontist's office notifying me that Elisan's design for a t-shirt contest WON first place!  The prize??  A Kindle Fire!  She's super excited (as you can imagine!)

Way to go, Elisan!

This ain't my first rodeo...

Well, actually, it was... I know, I know... what kind of self-respecting Texan am I?  Anyway, Randy brought us girls to our first rodeo last night. We had a blast!
