Happy Birthday to Colin and Brooke!

We LOVE going to the beach for our birthday weekend - Even when it's freezing!

Ollie met the sand!

And Mike froze his tail off!

Cold windy days? What? Do kids really care?




We decided to Go to Del Valle Lake the next day and enjoy the sun shining down on us! Ollie loved his play tent and the weather was great! Happy Birthday to US!!!! Nothing like a giant rice crispy treat with frosting and nerds! 28 and 31 here we come!


Enormous thank you to Aubry and Mike for making our weekend great! Love you crazy Tenneys!

Does Oliver stand a chance?

Mazzy's favorite thing to do!

Mazzy in her Twirl dress!

Little Miss Razz-Matazz



Here's a post just for our princess. Mazzy had a great birthday way back on April 29th. Exactly one month ago! She has added Cinderella as a second middle name and does a great Motor boat bubble in the pool. Mazzy loves her brothers and thinks life would be so boring with out Nixon telling her what to do all the time. Waffles with peanut butter are her favorite, and doesn't like to wear dresses or skirts that don't have the right "Twirl"!She loves people waiting on her and could spend every waking minute with her grandparents! They love to spoil her! You can't resist her butterfly kisses and curly locks! She has us wrapped around her finger!
