Coke in "Thai"

Yesterday Russ and I were drinking a Coke that had "Coke" written in Thai on the can. Russ was telling the kids that Aunt Stephanie brought him back a T-Shirt that was Coke written in Thai a few years ago when she went to Thailand. He went and got the T-Shirt, showed them the shirt and the Coke can, and said "See kids! That's Coke in Thai!" Samuel laughed, ran over to me, and said "Daddy said Coke in Tie! I have tie! See!" and pointed to the cute little necktie that he had worn to church that day. We laughed and laughed. Samuel found it so amusing that there was Coke in daddy's tie! :)

Chick Fil A Cow Appreciation Day

Today Chick Fil A had their "Cow Appreciation Day". If you came in to any Chick Fil A dressed like the Chick Fil A Cow, then you got a free combo meal. Allison and Kenzie didn't really have any cow costumes, but Samuel did, so we dressed him up. The kids got to see the big cow, have lunch, jump in the Bounce House, and throw bean bags. They loved it!

Coolest Guy EVER!

This is THE coolest guy ever! Check him out! Click on the title "Cooest Guy EVER" to take you to the video. It's VERY entertaining!

WIPEOUT!

Russ put the kids' Little Tikes slide over the little pool they have, and put the hose on top of the Little Tikes so that water was streaming down the slide. Boy, did it make it slippery! The kids were flying down that thing so fast all they could think was "Dad's the coolest!"

Our House

For those of you that have never been to our house, here is a picture of it. Allison drew it and wrote her name. It's Russ, Me, Allison, and Samuel "in the attic", then Kisses our Dog at the front door, and Grandma and Grandpa standing by the door coming to our house.

Samuel's Fireworks

Samuel was SO excited about seeing the fireworks at Grandpa and Grandma's house last night, that the first thing he did this morning when he woke up was to draw a picture of them. Here's his masterpiece:

The Bus At Hollywood Connection

At Hollywood Connection they have a really fun pink bus that goes up and around. The kids LOVE riding it! Samuel is such a thrill-seeker that he gets kind of bored on it, but Allison screams and laughs and says it tickles her tummy.

Chasing The Birds at the Park

The kids always like feeding the birds when we go to the park for lunch. Allison was a little scared of them at first (she has a fear of birds.....rightfully so.....long story!), but yesterday they came so close they were almost eating out of our hands!

Keeping Cool On A Hot Day!

It seems every time we go to the store, we find some new and fun water toy!

At The Drive In Movie

We've had our new truck for TWO WEEKS NOW and haven't taken it to the Drive In Movie even once! We figured it was past time! We went and saw Wall-E, which was a DARLING show! The kids had lots of fun sitting in the back truck, and nobody fell asleep (not even mom....it's a miracle!)!. The kids had fun eating half an Oreo, then making Russ eat the rest.....eating half a Nutter Butter, then making Russ eat the rest. Needless to say, poor Russ was sick at the end of the night. He was NOT very happy about it!
