long overdue pictures

I have been a horrible blogger lately. Sorry. The last few months have been so super crazy, but finally things are slowing down. It has been nice to have a few days where I have no plans!
We still haven't found a house to move to. We are still set to close on July 24th. Please pray we find something very soon!
Here are a few pictures of the last month so you can get caught up.



Matt's dad won tickets to the Astros game for June 25th. I was so excited about that until I realized it was the last day of VBS and it was a day game. I knew I would be too busy with VBS so Matt took a half day and took Cade to the game. We didn't tell Cade about the game until Matt showed up at the church. Cade was so excited when he saw Matt in his Astros jersey...he knows what that means. Cade was wearing his VBS shirt and Matt told him he couldn't go to the game in that and Cade took his shirt off so fast, no worries that it was in the middle of the nursery. They ended up getting to the game a little early and got Jeff Keppinger to sign a ball that Cade had gotten during batting practice from one of the players. Pudge, didn't play that game but Cade was happy that he saw him lean up against the dugout fence towards the end of the game. Matt took Cade to buy an Astros bat after the game. That is the only thing Cade had asked for for his birthday. Needless to say, they both had an awesome time.

Oh-during the game a photographer for the Chronicle took Cade's picture! He later came and asked Matt for Cade's name. Cade's picture was in the paper the next day! This is the picture from the paper.


This is another picture the chronicle guy took that was online.

Ready to head to the game

They saw Hunter Pence, but didn't get an autograph

showing off his signed ball

I LOVE the expression on Cade's face in this picture!

We have had fun playing outside in the evenings. It is still SO hot, but much more bearable than the afternoons!

Reid likes riding the little scooter and ringing the bell. He looks like a goofy little kid in this picture! I love it....

One morning I pulled out the little pool for the backyard and called the Meers to come over. The kids had a blast playing together.

Cade and Payton look like they are having a contest...

Maci preparing for her modeling days

isn't this so sweet!

This picture makes me laugh so hard. Maci was trying to pour water on her head. She obviously missed....check out Cade.......

Reid loves sliding

pretty little Payton

doesn't it look like Reid is trying to do a GQ pose?

Reid also LOVES the water hose. Especially spraying people with the water hose.

Reid thought he needed to wear dad's ear muff thing. I just thought he looked too silly!

Both boys love playing on this little horse at my parents house. I have a picture of me on that same horse when I was little.

Another evening outside. The boys got a hold of the hose when I was done watering the flowers

They laughed SO hard while spraying each other.

so, now you are caught up. I have a birthday post and another Astros game post coming soon!
