Dallas with Kids....

After a fun filled girlie weekend time to play with my boys! First stop, my other bestie, Jilly's house! Jill lives in a rural part of Dallas where the boys just had good 'ole fashioned fun, dressed in their underwear of course!

 It was only 1,000 degrees outside, but they didn't care.

 Batman Nolan and Robin Sam!

 I guess this is fun if you are a boy?

 Mama Addie pushing Baby Duke.

 Time to cool off.

 And they are off! (In their underwear no less!)

 Addie and Duke knew better!

 Jilly's and Harree's favorite place in high school.....SNUFFER'S the next generation!

Play-Dough is always a good idea, if it's not at my house, LOL!

Dallas Baby!

Now Andy has left me, and I am a single mother with 3 boys....AHHH!!! But, like I said my mother-in-law is amazing and let me have a little girl time. The boys and I headed to the Big D so Mommy could attend a Boyz II Men, 98 Degrees, and New Kids on the Block concert. I seriously felt like I was 13 again! Not to mention I went with my 2 besties....it was PERFECT!

 These are really more like my sisters.

 The AMAZING concert!

And the aftermath. (note to self don't say whatever I said again to Rachel.)

The next night was Becca's 32-Tu-Tu party...

 It started off pretty and girlie....(only for her would I wear a freaking tu-tu!)

 My perfect and beautiful nieces!

Then the birthday girl wanted to go out....IN OUR TU-TUS! I must really love her, and I do! We got so many yells and hollars asking if we were a bachelorette or 21, so of course I had to embarrass her and say she was 21! (note to self this is what upsets Becca.)

I HIGHLY recommend everyone have a Peddy sister duo for friends, it's the MOST fun! We have been friends for 28 years, YIKES, and whenever we are together we always forget how old we are!

Stillwater, Take 1

When we arrived in Stillwater, Andy was only able to stay one night so of course we did all of the important things, like hit up all the greasy spoon restaurants. (That truly is his number one priority.) After he leaves the boys and I stayed for a while and enjoyed quite time with Mimi and Pops and the fun luxuries living in Stillwater allows you, like riding on a tractor! We were invited to go to the Bahamas this summer, but you know that my boys would rather spend their vacations just hanging out in Oklahoma? We really make special memories....

 Game time with Mimi

 Game time with Pops!

 Andy's favorite "restaurant" to eat at, it's a glorified trucker's stop!

 He's teaching my boys good eating habits at an early age, those are full on Cokes in the cups, btw.

 Duke is obsessed with Bogie!

 Our annual lunch with Karen during Mimi's work break at Chic-Fil-A!

 Sweet reading time with Mimi.

 Now onto the tractor!

 We LOVE this!

 The Children's Museum in Stillwater.

 Big bro helping baby bro.

 Mimi likes to play as much as they do!

 Water table fun!

 Pool time with Jack, the son of Andy's elementary school friend, aka Jason.

Water gun fight time! Guns up!

And after Stillwater we head to the BIG D.....

It's Been A While....

I can't believe how long it has been since I have posted. I am actually really quite mad at myself, but such is life with 3 boys, a husband and a full time job. I don't really know where to begin, but I think I will start back with my summer vacay....Ahhhhh......SUMMA TIME!

Every year we venture to Texas and Oklahoma Grizwald style, in our CAR! (A mini van none the less!) We still have lots of friends and family over there and we like to spend 4-5 weeks house hopping. Most of the time is spent with my in-laws in Stillwater, OK. I am going to give myself props as I go by MYSELF to hang with my in-laws, but actually I go happily since they are AWESOME! We take 3 days to drive the very scenic route from Miami to Stillwater. Here are a few pics.....

First stop, Orlando for a night at the Gaylord!

It had a built in water park!

Sleepy baby....he was actually really good considering it was 21 hours!

He was a hit-or-miss!

Andy routed our trip based upon where there were Mi Cocina's, NO LIE! Tulsa was the first place that had one!

Finally made it to Stillwater, and we went straight to Eskimo Joe's

This is just the beginning of our adventure, stayed tuned for scenes from Stillwater, Dallas and Hot Springs, Arkansas!
