Texas Weekend

This past weekend we headed over to the Houston Livestock Show for some good ol' Texas fun.

The kids had fun on the carnival rides!








And playing in the petting zoo. 



We watched pig races which have always been my favorite.


Inside the Livestock Show the kids enjoyed the Agventure area where there all kinds of things for kids.

And Miss Maddi got to ride her first pony:) She was so excited.








We love Texas!

Maddi is also really enjoying her swimming lessons.





Owen enjoying reading his Lego Club Jr. magazine...

Overall a really fun weekend. Heading to Austin later this week for work for a LONG time so I will miss them:(

February Roundup

Well, we already shared the highlight of February in the Muttin' Bustin' post, but that doesn't mean there wasn't more fun to be had this month!

We went to see Sesame Street Live and miss Maddi was so excited to see Elmo. Owen went to one around this age and it was so much fun we decided to go again.


We celebrated Valentine's Day. First with some sugar cookies.





Then with presents for teachers and friends.
Hugs and Kisses for the teachers

 Superheros for the boys

 Flowers for the girls

My Aunt Lu and her husband Ed always send the best presents for us!!! It's usually homemade and is just my absolute address to receive a package from because I know it's always going to be great.
Baby doll shawl and Hello Kitty hat

 A Maddi Dodie doll for me:)
 Beautiful needlepoint for our home

Had fun with our good friends the Babbs

It was finally warm enough for our ants to arrive!



Received a visit from Papo and Nonna Barbara. Papo got to stay for the rodeo.

The kids started swim lessons again.

And we have some crazy kitty photos to throw in...


Hope y'all had a great month too.
