Labor Day Weekend-

I just think this picture (below) is too funny! My Dad has always been an OSU fan and Graduated from there. So of course growing up we were surrounded with OSU games, colors, and we even visited the campus and went to a couple of games. HOWEVER I was never really into sports (still am not but try to act more interested for my husbands sake!) (I went to a college that did not have football.) :) So when I married a man who is an OU fan - I of course jumped on the band wagon and rooted for his team. (Sorry Dad!!) So here we are on game day sporting our team colors proudly.

We were able to go to my grandparents house this past Labor Day weekend with my whole family! It was really good to see them and have the kids play at their house. We were able to do some shopping at the outlets, ride the Dart train to Downtown Dallas, and eat lots of yummy food-- all while juggling three kids schedules!


Here Kaylee and Drew are entertaining each other and watching each others every move. It was fun to watch them with each other!

We loved being able to see our nephew Drew while we were there! He is getting so big and is so cute! Looks like both him and Kaylee will have blonde hair and big blue eyes! :)

We got to ride the Dart train while we were there and you can guess that Brody just LOVED it! He was so excited to be going on it and had never ridden on a fast train like that before.

As you can see Drew was a little tired and thought it was a good time for a nap.........

............so did Kaylee!!!

Here are Brody and Micaw (my grandpa) on the train looking at all the sites out the window. He did not stop looking out the window the whole time!

We walked around Downtown for awhile seeing all the sites and smelling all the good food that is down there!

We were able to see Uncle John and Jerry while we were there and Brody had a great time with them. Here they are looking at the Locust that were out that night.

Showing me the locust that he had found in their back yard.


We are so glad that we were able to go and can't wait to go back again!!

Good picture of you and Dad with the team shirts. We loved spending time with you all last weekend. It was fun watching Brody's reaction to the train. Drew and Kaylee always seem to enjoy each other's company. So glad they are close in age. More fun times to come! Maybe they'll enjoy playing ship together. LOL
