Grandma and Grandpa Visit from Tennessee

Grandma and Grandpa came in town from Tennessee this past weekend. It was so good to see them. The boys had a lot of fun while they were here. We hope to see them again soon!
On Saturday we went to the World Wildlife Zoo. The weather was beautiful (much better than all the snow that Grandma and Grandpa had this past winter in Tennessee)
Grandpa was a good sport and rode the log ride with Wes and Alex
Alex has no fear and wanted to do this ride when he first walked in
Grandpa didn't know he would get pretty wet during the ride down
Grandma and the boys
We've been to this zoo a few times and it still amazes us how close you are to the animals
Now that Evan is older he doesn't want to ride in the stroller throughout the park. He wanted to hang out with daddy!
Wes and Grandpa took the boys on the carousel

Everyone went up to feed the giraffes

we saw these cranes on our train ride. They were running so fast and so close to us that we thought they were going to jump on the train

Evan and Alex cracking up at an app on the ipad
Evan loved the coloring books that Grandma and Grandpa brought for him

Grandma's birthday is on April 8th so we thought we could celebrate a little early!
Happy Birthday Grandma!
Evan did not want his own piece of the cake he wanted the WHOLE cake!! He couldn't wait to dig in!!
Daddy and his boys!
We had a great weekend with Grandma and Grandpa and hope to see you again soon!

Family Day!!

Last weekend was so nice outside that we decided to take the kids to Crackerjax. It is a family fun park that has mini golf, bumper water boats, go carts, batting cages, and a driving range (for when the boys are older). The boys were still a little young to do some of the activities but we had fun being together as a family!!
Alex was so happy to have daddy home for the weekend
Alex and Daddy riding the bumper boats
Wes was excited to show Alex how to play some golf
Evan doing it all on his own
time to putt
Alex loved this hole because he could take the slide to get to the bottom
I have seen this trampolines in the malls and couldn't imagine letting the boys do this but Alex wanted to try and he LOVED it!!
look at me!!
He had a blast jumping on the trampoline
playing some video games
It was a great day with the boys!! I hope they had as much fun as I did watching them!!

Happy Birthday Will!!

On March 18th Will turned 2!! Carly and Ben had a party for the birthday boy at their house. We were so glad we could help celebrate his 2nd birthday. We love you Will!!
