The next day after we got back from St. Thomas (actually the same day because we didn’t get home from the airport until 2:30am) we packed the kids up and got right back on the plane and flew to my parents house in good ol’ P-Town. We hadn’t been to their house in over a year so it was definitely time to go. AND we hadn’t been in the summer since Lindsay was a baby so we hadn’t gotten to swim in their pool in a really long time. One word can describe our time there: SUPER!!! My sister and her cute little family came for about 4 days while we were there and it was so much fun to spend time with them. I have some of the cutest nephews out there! Ben is 2 1/2 and William is 4 months and they were so much fun to be around. We hadn’t met baby William yet and he’s at that really fun age where they discover a lot of things. He was smiling a ton, laughing and finding his toes, which is one of my favorites that babies discover. I love to see a cute little baby grabbing their toes! I mean, seriously, just look at him!
Lindsay LOVED to hold him and play with him and I have to admit, seeing her with him really made it hard not to want another baby. So, I try not to think about it very much. ![]()
Ben and Logan got along better this time and Ben even let Logan look at him! Hooray! I really thought they got along great and they even gave each other a hug when they were leaving and it was about the cutest thing ever. I wish I had gotten a picture of it.
We did a lot of hanging out, swimming and playing games while they were there with us. One day we went to a little petting zoo farm and it was a fun time. It was hot because hello, it’s Plano in June, but the kids ended up having a lot of fun. We got to feed some goats and one of those goats was a pushy little thing and was trying to hoard all of the food, so we tried our hardest to let the little ones have some food, too.
We got to go on a tractor pulled hayride and Logan, if you can imagine, LOVED it!
They had some cute ponies on this farm and Lindsay automatically fell in love with them. She really loves horses and wants to take riding lessons.
The kids went on a barrel ride. It was just the two of them and they each had a little blow horn. At first, Lindsay had the blue one and Logan had the pink one and at the same time, they both wanted to switch. It was cute.
We took some time to rest in the shade and Uncle Danny let the kids play a game on his iPod Touch that Lindsay really likes called Doodle Destroy. I just thought they were cute all playing together.
We were going to take the kids to Six Flags one day while we were there, but Jeff and I were seriously exhausted and with Jeff’s leg, my ankles and the heat we decided not to go. So, we thought we would try ice skating. OMG! It was the worst idea we have ever had. Lindsay has been wanting to go so bad so we went and we lasted about 5 minutes. Logan loved the ice for about 10 seconds and wanted to get off and Lindsay lasted about 10 minutes until we both fell down hard and for a long time because we couldn’t get up and then she was done. There were lots of tears involved but it’s going to be one of those memories that we will laugh at later in life. In fact, we were laughing about it by the time we were putting our shoes back on. Too funny!
Here they are happy and excited!
Still happy…
This was Logan’s second try and seconds before he was REALLY done.
After the ice skating, we let them have a ride on the carousel to cheer them up. It worked.
More random pictures from our time there.
Doesn’t Lindsay look 16 in this picture?
We love you Grandma and Grandpa and can’t wait for you to come for Christmas! Mah!
