SK comes to TX.

The Wiebe's came to visit we had a fantastic week together!  I didn't take nearly enough pictures. :( 

A smattering of our week:

Lego Land:



Ready to watch the 4D movie:





The Jumbo Jump:




Petting the giraffes at the zoo:



Tough ninjas

Sweet friends


The girls painted nails while the guys went to the baseball game.

A fun bunch of kids!!



I can't believe that I don't have a pic of the 4 of us adults.... 

Such a fun week together, so thankful for good friends.  

10 Years of SWA

Ryan had his 10 year anniversary of working for Southwest this summer.  We went to the big party that they have for anniversaries - we got all dressed up (which, if you know Ryan, is kind-of a big deal) - and  had a great night out.
They bring in entertainment for the evening, and although it was not the rumored Aerosmith (too bad!!) We saw Cheryl Burke & Maksim Chmerkovskiy, a Las Vegas Michael Jackson impersonator (a little creepy), the guy from Lonestar who sings "I'm Already There", and the Temptations.  (We didn't know anything that they sang either - except when they busted out "My Girl")

All ready to go:

With Gary Kelly:


I am super proud of the hubby for all his hard work for our family.  It was a fun night celebrating him!

The pinata fell, but that didn't stop us!  I think this was the first year that the kids have opened the pinata without help from the adults.

Dry Ice

My Omaha Steaks arrived. But that wasn't the fun part.

Happy Canada Day!

The kids & I spent most of Canada Day making fun treats!





Somehow I forgot to make poutine - an oversight that will not be repeated next year!
Happy Canada Day!
