Waterpark fun with Mimi!!

Saturday, Dustin had drill and Papa is still at home with his knee so Mimi and I loaded up and headed to Collins with the kids!  Of course, you know us, we LOVE anything to do with water and sun!

 I think this slide gave Mimi more of a thrill than sister!

Kaleigh looks like she's on a mission with Alec coming fast after her!

Yep, Sister even did the semi big water slide!!  At least big for a barely two year old!  She LOVED it!!  Mimi was told, "Mam, you cannot go down with her" then "MAM, you cannot go AT ALL!!"  So funny!!

Mimi had to recoop in the river after doing the BIG racing slides with Alec, she nearly drank all of the water!  I think it went faster than she expected!!

Fourth of July Fun!

Everytime we go to Bay St. Louis, I promise myself I'm going to leave my camera at home, but I just can't help myself!!  We have way to much fun down there not to take some pictures!  Wonder how we can figure out a way to move to Bay St. Louis!!  The closets and the kitchen are definitely not up for full time living! ha!!

This time, Nana and Paps went with us for two days, then took the kids back to Ellisville and Adam and Katy came down for some adult fun during the last two days.  Poor Papa and Mimi were stuck in Hattiesburg this time, as Papa had his 2nd knee replacement surgery on Wednesday.

The hit the sand box as soon as we got there!

And quickly caught a BIG catfish too!

Alec's Teeny Tiny fish!

Finally we actually caught lots of fish on the boat this time too!  Yummy flounder!

Come on sister, there's nothing wrong with an 8am swim in the boat launch in your pjs!

Ok brother, here I come!

Sister loves a swim!

Best Red Neck Swimming Picture EVER!!

We played lots of silly games during our VERY rainy weekend!

Ummm, can you tell not everyone was in the mood for a family picture!

Austin and Alec LOVED the fireworks!

This looks like trouble waiting to happen!  I know that the boys were always laughing and the girls were always running for cover!  And the folks that were upstairs at the camp thought surely we were trying to blow it up! Next year we may opt for a fireworks show instead of a Do - It -Yourself!! ha!!

This girl can eat some watermelon!



Cool new pirate hats from Mr. Tony and Mrs. Marti!

Water balloons are always fun when it's raining!

Here I come Paps!!

A Little too close ALEC!!


You can tell this probably isn't going to end well!


CRASH!!  Sis crying, Alec laughing and Nana's wet!

Finally some adult fishing fun!!

And he's FIVE!!

These kids grow up WAY to fast!!  Alec turned five Monday and insisted on a Ninja Turtles party at Planet Gymnastics!  It was an awesome party, he had so many friends come and everyone had fun!

He picked out his birthday invitation!

Pretty sure these are the same foam squares from when I was at KIPS 25 years ago!

Landon, Aiden and Roman swinging into the pit!

Kaleigh Bug and her best bud Riley!

Drew loved it so much, he wants his party here too!

Flying Pig Tails!


The Castro Girls!
Addy is in Kaleigh's class and Mia is in Alec's class


The birthday group, less Drew who wasn't sitting still long enough for a picture!

Can you see his excitement?!? ha!!  He was coming down with Swimmer's Ear and really started feeling bad towards the end of his party!

Everyone loved the ninja turtle balloons!  Thanks Pinterest!

And the cakes were a huge hit!  Thanks Mrs. Janice!


Yes, matching outfits for Alec, Kaleigh and I, thank goodness no one got a picture of me in my ninja turtle shirt!! ha!


And several of us went straight from his party to four wheeler ride!  YEP, it was a long day for ALL of us!  Needless to say, his turtle shirt is now permanently dirt colored! 

One of his favorite gits, the snow cone maker from Mimi!  It works great and taste yummy!  He's always looking for someone to make a snow cone for!

Father's Day 2013

We had a Great Father's Day last Sunday doing the things Dad loves best!  We went to church, fished, swam and ate!  It just doesn't get any better than that!

Kaleigh wasn't into the pre-church parking lot picture....

He LOVES to fish!!


Got one!!


And sister's favorite activity.... EATING!!

She'll let you know in a hurry that she doesn't want her chicken cut off the bone!
