Trip to BIG D

We went to Dallas last week and weekend. The girls have been begging to go, and Christian had work meetings so it worked out great. Paige has lots of fond memories from when we lived there, and Addison was excited to see the hospital where she was born and the house that we used to live in (she only lived there for 3 weeks before we moved).

We went to the mall in Frisco...rode the carousel, Addison made a bunny at Build A Bear, and we did some shopping.

We met up with my friend Melissa for lunch. I so enjoyed getting to see her and her precious kids.

We went to Coppell to see our old house, play at the awesome park there (sorry forgot to take pictures), and go to the pool.

Friday night, we went out as a family to The Magic Time Machine restaurant. It was great, except Addison panicked every time that she saw Spider Man. Since the restaurant was in Addison, we found a sign for Addison to take a picture by.

Saturday, we went downtown and then stopped at the Dr Pepper museum and soda shop in Waco on our way home. We had a wonderful trip.

4th of July in Louisiana

We headed to Louisiana to celebrate the 4th of July and pick up our big girls who were with their grandparents. We had a great weekend.

At my parents (MiMi & Potsie's), the girls dressed up with clothes and wigs (including Eden), rode the 4-wheeler, and took a boat ride in the pond...

At Christian's parents (Grandma & Poppa), we had a BBQ (quite delicious) and swam. The guys played lots of basketball and ping pong.

Eden turned 4 months old (7/3)

Little Miss Eden turned 4 months old on July 3rd (I know I'm a little late...these pics were taken on that day). I'm not sure if Little and Eden can go in the same sentence. She is quite a big girl. One of the volunteers in the nursery at church referred to her as "The Big One". She has so many rolls. The pictures do not do them justice. She is a precious baby. She is happy and talks so much. She sleeps wonderful at night and loves to eat. She is enjoying playing with her toys and discovering new things. We are so thankful that God has blessed our life with her.

Addison's trip to MiMi & Potsie's

While Paige was at the David Archuletta concert with her Grandma, Addison was staying with MiMi and Potsie (7/1). They went to the zoo, went to see the animals at her friend Emma's house, and Emma came over to slip-n-slide in the yard...

Paige & David Archuleta

Paige is a huge fan of David Archuleta (last year's American Idol runner up). She went to the American Idol concert last year and was spotted and given backstage passes. She met all of the top 10 Idol contestants and was able to move up to the front row for the concert!

Last night David Archuleta and Demi Lovato were in concert together in Louisiana. Paige's grandma took her. They had backstage passes to see David again. She said that it was wonderful. Here is a picture of Paige & David.
