Happy 12th Birthday Brody!!! :)

Yesterday we celebrated Brody's 12th Birthday!  He started off the day with eating Munchkins from Dunkin Donuts!  Yum!  For lunch Mimi treated him to Chipotle.  Delish!  Then the boys went to an escape room with the Halley boys. They didn't quite make it out in the hour challenge, but everyone worked together to figure out clues/riddles and almost made it to the end.  Next, we had a pool party at our house.  We ordered pizza and wings from Brody's favorite pizza place (Barro's).  Everyone had fun swimming, playing cards, and eating!  I think Theresa was the last to leave at midnight.  Brody had quite a day!  Happy Birthday son!  I can't even believe you are 12!  The time has gone by way too fast!  I'm so proud of the young man you've turned into.  We'll always love you and be here for you!  xoxo Mom, Dad, and Wyatt

Good luck saving the world from a nuclear meltdown!

Rattlers game!

We scored some free tickets to the Rattlers football game last night (indoor arena football)!  We had a BLAST with the Halley's!  The music was AMAZING TOO!  The Rattlers WON!!!  Woot woot!

The Rattlers WON!

Wyatt LOVES football and has been wanting to go to a game.  Next, we'd like to take him to a Cardinals game! :)

We LOVE Baby Zane!!!

We were happy to babysit for my friend Lisa this past week.  Her little boy Zane (6 months old) is absolutely adorable!  The boys were VERY engaged and wanted to feed him, change diapers, and play with him.  We miss him already and can't wait for him to come back!  Brody and Wyatt are trying to talk me into having another baby or adopting one...I don't think so guys!  I'm getting too old! :)

Zane meets Emmet! :)

Too cute!

Brody loves Zane!

Wyatt loves Zane too!

Happy 4th of July!

We had a wonderful 4th of July celebration at my mom and dad's house!  Our friends from Ohio were here for a visit because their son was getting married.  We loved spending the day celebrating their upcoming wedding and the 4th of July!  God bless America!

My dad and George talked and laughed for hours!!! :)

4th of July wouldn't be complete without swimming in Grandma and Papa's pool!  Cousin love! xo

Butch, Lisa, and Tia enjoyed the pool too! :)

Congratulations on the upcoming marriage!!!

We loved having George and Jeanette here from OH! :)

Lake Pleasant!

Jerry's Father's Day gift was a boat rental!  My friend Sandi and I rented a boat for our husbands/families to spend the day at Lake Pleasant.  The kids loved tubing and attempted wakeboarding!  FUN TIMES with the Halley's!  Happy Father's Day Jerry! xo
