This past Wednesday Jeff and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary. If you read the previous post you know we celebrated last weekend in Dallas, but on the actual day I received these gorgeous flowers! They are extra special because the roses in my bridal bouquet were the exact same shade of pink!
We celebrated at home by ordering pizza with the kiddos. I love how that is such a joy to me now...Wow how life has changed over the last 3 years! We filled the weekend with more family fun! I guess we were making up for lost time since we were apart from the boys last weekend. And it is definitely a preview of a summer filled with tons of fun family memory making! Thursday night we went to "A"s school for open house/school picnic/yearbook signing. We shared Chick Fil A and hours of sticky hot outdoor fun! We love "A"s school and the whole staff from teachers and nurse to front desk staff! They all adore our little "A" too. In fact this momma is proud to report that all the kids love "A" just as much! He is quite the popular little friendly, smiley guy!
Saturday we spent sweating! We had a 9 am soccer game for "J" and a 2 PM one for "A." In between we went to one of our neighborhood pools with a little splash area that the boys really enjoyed! Looks like we will be frequenting this spot especially since "A" is still pretty terrified of big, deep pools. Somewhere during our hours of sunny fun, we (Jeff and I) got sunburns. Our sweet guys just bronze so thankfully they remain sunburn free! Saturday night after a long nap, we went to our first of many Dynamo soccer games! Our boys love playing soccer and I think they will enjoy watching it as well, especially once they can sit a bit longer at one time.
These games our outdoors of course, but thank goodness the sun went down during it, so the heat was bearable. And really the view of the city in the background made it even more pleasant! The crowd was very engaged and spirited. Our boys spent most of their time inspecting the freebies we got and climbing the bleachers.
But the game was pretty amazing to watch! These guys are such stellar athletes, kicking the ball from one end of the field to the other in one giant high flying kick! "A" said he was going to start head butting the ball in his little games so that will be interesting to see. I'm pretty sure that skill takes a lot more practice than he has had so far! And "J" left the game saying he wants to play soccer when he gets big!
"A" really got into cheering and dancing to the Latino music!
All in all our weekend was a blast and I can't wait for more family fun this summer! It will involve substantial sweat with this Houston heat and humidity, but the joy our boys experience is worth any amount of discomfort for their weather wimp of a momma!
