Blake's High School Graduation

Blake graduated high school! He's officially an adult now! I didn't get to go to his graduation, because after I rushed over there after work, they said they're too full, and wouldn't let me in even though I had a ticket =/ I did go afterwards though with everyone. Mary gave him a party at Gee Gee's house to celebrate. She bought food and decorations, it came out nice =)

 He mostly got money, with a few gifts, like a personalized frame Desiree bought him.

 His girlfriend Katherine graduated this year too, at a different school.

 Congratulations Blake! I hope your future is great!

Seaworld With My Fam

A big chunk of my family went to Seaworld together. Katie, me, my Mom, Mary, Gee Gee, Desiree and her family, and my Aunt Debbie. It was a long drive, and when we got there, we were hungry. The kids all got a pretzel. I brought Katie's water bottle so she could have ice cold water while she walked a lot.

 Walking in, we saw this. The kids got to touch it.

 John just got carted along nicely. lol.

 Katie's finally big enough to go on this ride, and I'm pregnant =/ The rest of my family went on with her while I stayed behind with Desiree, Thomas, John, and Sam. The younger boys were too short to ride.

 So glad they put the kid's area in, so much more fun for them now.

 Waiting for Blue Horizon to start.

 Our last ride of the day. These used to cost $3/person, so they usually had a short line. They are now free =/ We had to wait like an hour to go on. Mixed feelings. It was free, but the wait, bummer.

 The last snack of the day, Katie's favorite. Dippin' Dots!

It was a pretty fun day, even pregnant. I'm doing really well this pregnancy, not too tired, haven't gained too much baby weight, so far so good! I was bummed I wasn't able to go on Journey to Atlantis with Katie for her first time though. And now that she went on it, she'll never go on again. Haha. It scared her pretty good. Awesome day.

Drytown is Open!

Katie and I went to this year's opening day for Drytown!  We had fun swimming for a few hours together =) I bought a new case, to keep my money and keys dry while we were there. Katie likes to get snacks, so it's important to have money with me, haha. She loves the Dippin' Dots machine most! :p

 She was showing me she can float, lol.

 My big girl can reach the bottom of the Lazy River this year!! She is so excited! I can't believe how big she is getting. She is 1 inch too short for the big slides now. Next year we'll be on them together! =)

23 Weeks!

23 weeks and we still can't agree on a girl name. I like Haley Brooke and David likes Abigail. Neither of us will budge =/

Classmate's Pool Party

Katie got invited to a pretty cool pool party from one of her classmates, Cody. They were told to bring their swimsuit, so Katie was ready. They had a pool and a water slide for the kids.

 They had a few floaties laying around for the kids as well.

 Yummy fruit. They also had hamburgers and hot dogs.

 Katie liked the snow cone machine.

 It was a party for Cody's sister as well, and they had boy and girl crafts set out, but you could do both. Katie bejeweled some flip flops.

 And then painted an "Angry Bird House."

Pretty awesome party. At the end, they gave us a goodie bag as we walked out. Glad Katie had a fun time =)

David's Dad's 66th

For David's Dad's birthday, she got fancy and let me paint her nails. This girl hardly ever lets me paint her nails, it drives me nuts. But today, she let me. And she even put on a pretty dress =) I couldn't get her out of the flip flops though =/ She doesn't take them off on weekends when the weather's nice.

 The kids entertained themselves playing and climbing trees. They also had one of the big bouncy balls you crawl into, like the one at the Easter party we went to.

 I'm pretty sure they were playing with a tennis racket. Not quite sure what they were playing, lol.

Happy Birthday! The whole family was able to get together =) I hope he had a great day!
