Friday iPhone Dump #282

Wahoo - I'm almost caught up.  This post should have been made last Friday, September 7th.

We decided to spend Labor Day weekend at the beach but the kids went there on Friday since Randy had to work Saturday morning.  It rained a lot and, apparently, they had to find things to do indoors.  Like make a pretend rocket ship out of the chairs.

Time to switch pilots...

The rain did let up some, enough for them to have a scooter and bike wash. 

And play at the beach with their cousin, Layton.

And, when Memaw joins the fun, it turns into a train (probably because Memaw didn't want to lay on the ground!).

They always get plenty of ice cream on the beach.

And Hannah gets buried but looks so cute!

More family came up on Sunday.  It rained for the first half of the day but turned out to be nice the second half.

Here is everybody that was there.

And then our immediate family.

Lots of cousin fun!

Randy and I also did the chalkboard for Mom and Dad's bar.  I did the lettering but made him draw the salt shaker...I can't draw anything!

Silly girl in the bath, trying to have a beard.

Then Mom and Dad came over one night so that we could leave the kids at home with a babysitter and take them to an Astros game.  We had a lot of fun!

Mom taking a picture with Orbit (like Hannah did).  He never did get too close to us!

And Hannah started ballet and tap last week. She LOVES it!

Here is a post from Friday, August 31st.

Hannah did a cheerleading clinic with her friend Khloe at Tompkins high school one Saturday morning.

Here is the whole group.

When eating at Lupe Tortillas, you must be silly on the pig.

Hannah and another friend Cori playing cheerleaders at a birthday party.

Jacob has a hard time waking up in the morning.  When he was too tired to move, he laid down on the kitchen floor.  Hannah was trying to annoy him and it worked!

The kids wanted to make fake poop (peanut butter and chocolate syrup) to try and trick Randy.  They enjoyed this way more than the should...haha!

Hannah got to perform at the Tomkins peprally but Jacob is the one who got a picture with the mascot.

The Aggies had their season opener on a Thursday night.  So, we took the kids (even though it was a school night).  Of course, we had to take them to the bar first.

Hannah loved her face "tattoo".

And she loved the dance team there.

And they always love Bottle Cap Alley.

Here is a post that should have been posted on Friday, August 24th.

Murphy and Rocky are learning to love each other.  Sometimes, they even quit playing/fighting long enough for a picture.

Hannah is definitely loving Murphy because she can carry him around.

And he's even been in the pool a few times.  He doesn't love it but he doesn't hate it as bad as Rocky.

Hannah's teacher sent this from the first day of school.

We also got her an extra pair of glasses in case she ever breaks hers.  She had to wear them for a few days and actually likes them.

We ended the week with a fun birthday party for Jake at Chuck E. Cheese.

Here's a post from August 17th.

The boys in this neighborhood love to play baseball during the summer.  And the girls love to cheer for them. So, on the last Friday night before school started, we had the Ibis Lake All Star game.  One of the parents even made shirts for them!

Here is my baseball player.

And our cheerleader!

The whole gang.  Clearly we should have done this picture before it got dark!

Then on Monday night, we had Meet the Teacher.  Jacob has Mrs. Reddit and Mrs. Shah.  I forgot to get a picture with him and Mrs. Shah so here is Mrs. Redditt.

And Hannah has Mrs. Brown.

Crazy girl in the bath!

And then it was time for the first day of school.  They were both kinda excited....but Hannah more than Jacob!

While they went to school, I went to meet Mom and Dad to pick up our new dog!  They adopted Murphy but he wasn't getting along with Mr. Whiskers at all.  He and Rocky play/fight ALL DAY LONG!

Hannah was VERY excited!

Walking to the bus stop the next morning, we saw another hot air balloon.

Cori and Hannah at bus stop.  Hannah is SO happy that she gets to get on the bus with them this year!!
