A Day Out with Thomas the Tank Engine!

For Mother's day this year, we decided to take a ride on Thomas the Tank Engine! We did it a few years ago, but Nick was more into it this year. I think this is probably our last year of it being fun and exciting :(  But, the boys still loved it this year. I think Ben enjoyed it more this time than he did last time. 

We were entertained by a hobo band while waiting our turn for the train

Oh, too funny....

Tattoo time! Who doesn't love a good Thomas tattoo?!

Family Time at the Zoo

My aunt and uncle and cousins came in town for a wedding Mother's Day weekend. A family brunch was planned with my grandma for Sunday, but we were going to see Thomas the train, so we couldn't go. Instead, we met up at the zoo for a fun afternoon of animal site seeing! It was a beautiful day. Unfortunately, Nick wasn't feeling good, so Adam took him back to the truck for a rest. But Ben and Caroline still had fun!

Renee was working hard to stay cool - blowing dirt and mud onto herself!

Happy Birthday, Cameryn!

We helped Cameryn celebrate her 6th birthday at the gymnastics center. There is a reason Nick has never been allowed to take gymnastics. He figured out how to do the monkey bars (which led to issues at the park later) and flip on the rings and cannonball into the foam pit... But it was a good party, non the less! ;) 

Who jumps with that kind of form?? Should he do diving?
