Family Night at the Fire Academy

Last week, we attended a Family Night at the Fire Academy in McKinney in support of Cole, Tim's brother. Here are a few pics from the evening...along with a very cool video below of Cole fighting a car fire (he is the one with the crow bar who opens the hood & trunk). It was awesome!

More fun in the backyard...and in the rain!

Easter Egg Hunt!

On Good Friday, Carter had his very first Easter Egg Hunt at his school, Primrose. He did great! He loved picking up the eggs, opening them up (to see what fell out) and then tossing them into his bag (or into whoever's bag was closest!). So cute! :)

Birthday party fun!

This past Saturday, Carter attended two AWESOME birthday bashes! In the morning, we went to Pump it Up to celebrate Jackson's 2nd bday. Carter loved the bounce houses, playing basketball, driving around in a little car & going down the HUGE slide with Mommy & Daddy (see the video below of him, Daddy, Uncle Cole & Colson all going down together). That afternoon, we went to The Little Gym for Jones & London's 2nd bday. We all know that Carter LOVES that place!! And yes, he did hold his basketball while he ate his snack & cupcake. Lol! What a fabulous day celebrating with our friends! Happy birthday to all of you guys! Thank you for including us in your celebration :)

Backyard Fun...

Along with the countless hours of basketball that have taken place in the backyard already, Carter loves to put balls on his tee & hit them off. It isn't always baseballs...it is balls of all sizes. And it isn't always a bat he uses to hit them off...it's anything (i.e. see the random cake cutter/server thing laying in the yard? Yeah...). But this time, we caught pretty proper usage of the t-ball set. I will try & get some pics of the other random things he puts on there, and hits off. So funny!

March Madness!

Think Carter is ready?!

Spring Break Fun!

I can't believe Spring Break is already over! Last week was just THE BEST!! We had a few fun outings... Carter's first trip to Home Depot with Daddy - yikes! Of course Tim said he loved it - scary for me...2 boys who go crazy over HD! We went to a Williams family dinner at Japon celebrating everyone's birthdays from February & March (which was 6 of us, wow!). We took a trip with DD, Ava and Truett to the Sharkarosa Wildlife Ranch in Pilot Point to see / pet some cool animals! We went to dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings to meet Jackson & Jocelyn (and of course their parents & some other friends) to watch some March Madness (and reak havoc on the poor restaurant). We also had some visitors to the house throughout the week...Uncle Michael & Cate came over for dinner one night & brought over some super cool birthday presents for Carter (including a Little People Zoo, all kinds of animals, a Purdue jersey & Michigan basketball shorts - precious! I guess if Carter doesn't go to Texas, I'd be ok with either of those 2 Big 10 schools). ;) Cameron came over to play with Carter a few times & we even got a visit from Kristen, Brayden and Nana Stephanie! Boy does Carter LOVE having friends over to play!! Other than that, we spent the rest of the week hanging out & playing, playing, playing!! And I would venture to guess that 99% of our playing was done OUTSIDE. This boy...as soon as he wakes up, he wants to go outside. It's all he studies...and that is ok with Mommy!!! You can see that most of our outside playing had to do with helping in the yard & playing tee ball / basketball. Daddy is sure proud of him!!! Tim says golf clubs are next! :) What a great week!
