Way too many pictures...

Sorry for the long post, I started back to work last week and was a little busy to post what we have been up to...and our kids are too cute, so there are tons of pictures :)

As for work, it has been good to get back in the swing of things and thankfully Mimi is watching Brett until September, so that makes it easier...of course, she does have to get up at 6:15...but he is really cute!


This is Amy's new hobby...watching the clothes in the washer...endless entertainment...definitely taking after her namesake...my grandmother is obsessed with laundry and apparently so is the little Willila!
Last weekend we went to Dallas for Tyler's 4th birthday! Amy loved playing with her cousins! We went to see her first movie and she did really well. And we loved getting to see Toy Story 3! On Sunday, they played slip'n'slide...Amy had to take her shirt off just like the boys...very classy!

Ryan is such a sweet boy...but getting too big :)

Of course, the big boys had to try it out...apparently it is a little harder on the knees and what not after 30!

Oddly, Matt was the only one with his shirt on...apparently a little role reversal :)

Last week we had some pretty heavy rain and Amy got to test out her new monkey boots! She and Grandpa on the way to the "big" puddle at our neighbors.

Grams and Brett watching from the porch.

And of course she had to get her hands wet!

JUMP!

And then sit down...nice and dirty or as Amy would say "filthy"...not sure where she picked that up!

Our neighborhood has a 4th of July bike parade every year and it is always fun. Grams and Amy decorated her wagon last week and we had mini-police lights on top courtesy of Mimi! Our friends little one shared our wagon and they had a great time!

Ready to go :)

Brett joined us along the route...he slept through the parade!

Checking out the original artwork Amy created at school...

Quick family picture on the way into the party!

Amy decided to pull her wagon back to the truck...such a big girl!

We tried some pictures of the 4th of July clothes on Sunday at church...not the best pictures...Mommy - dying of heat, Brett - not sure of the death grip that Mommy has and Amy - not wanting pictures...

And when Daddy jumps in, Amy is all done...I love the smile and death grip on Amy...classy picture...

Last night we headed downtown to the fireworks...it was insanely hot and our family sweats way too much...but we had a great time...we were a little scared of how the kids would do, but they did great! Brett cried after some of the really big fireworks and the finale got to him, but other than that they loved them...Amy really loved the green ones, they were her "favorite"

Daddy's entire family self portrait...pretty nice shot...

This morning we decided we hadn't sweat enough, so we met some friends at Discovery Green to play in the splash pad...Brett was super excited! Mostly to wear his new Bucee's t-shirt that Amy picked out for him!

Amy was much too busy to slow down for a picture, so this is the best I could get...

All and all a fabulous weekend...but I think we are all ready for work, school and Mimi's tomorrow...too much excitement :)
