Memorial Day weekend we headed up to Austin with Grandpa! It rained the first 24 hours so it was a new kind of adventure up there, but the kids loved it just the same!
Did some fishing and lots of rock throwing, that was Colt and Ellie's favorite! By the time Eric got all the lines untangled and all the poles working they had lost interest! After we got home he talked about throwing rocks at the lake everyday until we went back two weeks later.
The rain didn't stop them one bit!
It cleared up the next afternoon so we got some tubing in. Livy loves the tube and the thrill!
Ellie took a little spin and was happy some of the time!
Rachel was my pet doggy named Sadie for this trip, so dogs don't go on the tube therefore Rachel doesn't go on the tube :)
Colt was quite serious on the tube but was brave for trying this one.
And Grandpa was having a good old time! Rachel told Eric while he was driving the boat "don't throw the old man off!" We had a good laugh at that one! Glad to see Grandpa still enjoying it!
We headed home Sunday and Monday had a swim and shrimp boil at Grandma and Grandpa's house. While swimming Rachel had a big first.............
She lost her first tooth!!! Woohoo!
Big deal around here since we have been watching it every day for a month to see when it would be! I wasn't there yet (I was at home with Ellie who decided to spread her poopy diaper around her room during nap time, cleaning it all up) and when I got there I heard the big news! Unfortunately it happened in the hot tub and we couldn't find it for a long time until magically daddy found it somewhere! Way to go daddy, you made her day! Kind of hard to see where it fell out because her big tooth was already growing in behind the wiggly one. And Ellie I had to write that down so you will understand you did it too when your baby does it!
Ready for the big jump!
Oops, only some decided to go! You look pretty cool though Colt!
The tooth fairy left one dollar and a candy, not the toy she and Livy kept insisting that might get left, but highly satisfied none the less! She was pretty thrilled to be the first one to lose a tooth!
