Playing catch-up JUNE

June started with the end of school - here are Dekan's two favorite teachers. Both have left the school, so he won't even get to see them in the hallways, so sad.


June also brought my sister, sister-in-law, and mother to visit. But how can a visit be complete without a trip to the ER for Dave in the middle of the night, and a trip to Urgent Care for my sis?
They all got awesomely expensive haircuts to start us all off.



A night out on the town
Then a trip to the Arboretum





an awesomely hot picnic lunch


playing Bingo with Grandma
After Dave's 911 midnight visit to the ER, we thought it best to leave him at home for this part of the trip, and the girls took off by our selves. At the time we didn't know what happened to Dave, but early last month we discovered it was gall stones.
First off, we played games and next morning we went to the Dr. Pepper museum.


we enjoyed real sugar dr. pepper floats - yum

I researched a bunch of Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives for us to stop at on the way to and from our destination. We had some amazing food in some off the wall places.



The story of the Salt Lick is that animals used to come lick the salt of the rocks, and that's how we came to pretend to lick the Salt Lick



A stroll down the Riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas
A visit to the ALAMO
Next morning, we found a place called Lulu's where there have a 3 lb. cinnamon roll, and some other really yummy breakfast food.

We didn't each get our own, we shared it with everyone when we got home and only ate 1/2 off it.

We went to a place called Maria's Taco Xpress, and as soon as we turned the corner, we laughed hysterically! This place had to be the most colorful.
The last place only my sister and I got to try and that was Twisted Root Burger Co. I got a burger with goat cheese - it was awesome!
We had a blast on our girl get-away

Playing catch-up MAY

The month of May brought a lot of excitement for the summer. After graduating, I started decorating around the house and getting ready for some family to come in early June.
Here are some fun pics from our May days.

A favorite hang out is mom and dad's bed.

Camden - aka - Fabio


Fun on the swing set in the backyard

and basketball with the new hoop
and Mr. Cutey-pants watches everyone play

I got a new camera for graduation, so I was testing it out on the beautiful flowers Dave gave me for our anniversary.

I don't know if I posted this before, but this is one of my all-time favorite moves. Cam was leaking out his diaper when I was running errands, and I ran out of diapers in the diaper bag, so I asked for an extra grocery bag, and the employees died laughing over this MacGuyver move. I just might be a redneck.
Fun with Daddy

Love those boys!
