New Braunfels Park

My friend Amy and I took the kids to the NB park pool and to ride the train. Ashton loves water so as you can imagine it was hard to get him to leave the pool to go ride the train. Emily is so cute. Ashton normally hangs out around Emily and keeps her occupied but not when it comes to the pool. The train brings back memories from our childhood, even same train conductor. That day there was a man from the Herald that was writing an article about the train and Amy and I were quoted in the paper. That was cool. Amy also showed me the tree that the Bunco Babes bought in memory of Rachel. It is located along the train route because she LOVED riding the train.

Happy 4th of July!!

We went to Arkansas this year for the 4th. Ashton loved the sparklers and the smaller fireworks but the loud bang of the big fireworks hurt his ears, or so he said. I think it was an excuse because he could not sit still that long. He was constantly trying to find something else to do. Anymore sparklers?

The "Tractor"

Robby's grandparents have a 1925 Model T that the family helped restore. Ashton LOVES it. He calls it the tractor, I'm assuming because it sounds like a tractor. We drive it everytime we go to visit Robby's family no matter if it is 20 degrees or 100 degrees, Ashton has to ride in it.

Pickin' Blueberries

While in Arkansas, we just had to pick some blueberries to take home. Ashton loved to pick them, he really got into it surprisingly. I was very surprised that he had that much patience, that was until daddy brought the "tractor" over.

Playing Baseball

Robby and Ashton played baseball while we were spending some time with Robby's family in Arkansas. Ashton found his new found sport, baseball while we were there. Before we arrived to Robby's mom's house we stopped off at a Wal Mart and Ashton just had to had this baseball bat. So we bought it and like they say, the rest is history. He wanted to play baseball the whole time we were there.
