The Kiddie Casino With Family

The last stop on the birthday train was to go see the mouse, play games, and ride rides. :)























Noah was rich in tickets!





Mom and her girls...

















Tell me, why do kids do this?





I remember loving how high it was in those tubes when I was a little girl. :) Seems they are still just as fun.








Mom took the baby up to the stage. He was not very happy about it. Hee hee...





My mom and sister pulled away from the house the next morning. :( I miss them so much. We were scheduled to go for a visit back home this month and it didn't work out due to the things Matthew is enduring right now. I just need these people. I hope they know how much we enjoyed them. Lots of memories made.

Black Bayou With Family

While my family was here we went to Black Bayou. I needed some pictures of my sweet little girls and boys together.


I so love these two little girls. I want them back NOW!











I loved seeing them all together...my children with my sister's children.





My mother with our children...





I was not in the mood for my own photo, but I got in there.





I could snuggle these two together ALL DAY LONG!





Look at little Amy's hand on the glass here. I want to squish that little hand and kiss it all over! She was looking at the baby gators.





Noey Boos!





Amy fed the gator a donation...





...I love that Matthew caught her expression afterwards. He says that she could play a little Callie from CSI:Miami. Hee hee...





My more reserved Kayley decided to donate to the gator as well. ;)





Daddy bought Noah a frog tattoo.








Have you ever seen prettier children???





Mr. Boos hanging out...








We found a very pretty spider...





And a CUTE little green snake. :) Remy wanted to hold him. He couldn't stand himself. ;)








We walked out and headed for the next destination. I saw this lone flower blooming where God had planted it. Matthew and I spoke about that for a moment. It is a big deal for us right now, that thought, of blooming where we are planted.





Having the sweet faces of those we love around for the weekend was medicine. Needed medicine. I want them all back!

Noah's First Build-A-Bear

Elijah and Remy had wanted to take Noah to make his own friend  since the day he was born. I convinced them to wait again and again. It seemed like the perfect time to go when my family was in town to share in it with him.


He picked his pup whom he named Cupcake for his birthday.











I love this photo of my little sweet nieces with my boys. I wish I had them around us all the time. They are so precious.





His puppy is no longer flat!





He thought the fluff machine was neat.





Wash that Cupcake!





See little Amy there beside us? I want to cuddle her so much right now. :(








Remy talked his daddy into letting him make one, too. The bear was called a Bearemy. Remy says that meant BE A REMY. LOL See how he convinced daddy he needed one?





Amy and Kayley made kitties.











Home and snuggly with new friends.











Time to color little houses.





Rest up little ones...another day to play with cousins. :)
