We had a great holiday weekend, but it seemed to fly by! We started off by going up to the Y pool on Friday and meeting the Blakes up there. The boys had a good time! Here are Carson and Cannon sliding.
Also, on Friday, we had a visitor on our porch. A very unwelcome visitor. Matt sent me a text while I was getting a pedi that said, "I just caught a bat on the porch. Think I should call animal control?". Ummm...that was just weird! To make a long story short, we don't have animal control, but you could pay $100 for some company to come out and assess it! Matt traped it in the sidewalk chalk box, anchored down by our huge bench. The company advised him to leave it trapped until night and then see if it flys away. It did....THANK GOD. Carson though Matt should have "hit it with a hammer" and I kind of agreed with him! Here it is....NASTY.
On Saturday, we hit The Woodlands parade down at Market Street. The boys had a great time for the first half of it....they were totally impressed with all of the firetrucks and the sirens! Cade had this look of awe on his face. Cannon even set in the stroller for that part, which is quite impressive these days! There were lots of service men, hummers and guns, which also were quite impressive in the boys' books! Then, on came the beauty queens and such and they could have cared less. If somebody was passing out candy, they would smile and wave, otherwise, they were done!
Another one of Cade, looking thrilled!

After that, we were hot! We changed into suits and headed up to the Cranebrook pool. Lucky us, it was Splash Day. That meant free cupcakes! Notice surfer boy's hair...it is the last one of it that long...he got a trim on Sunday. So sad, I've got to let it grow out again.
Cannon was a big 'ole mess!
After this, we put the boys down and then went over to Mom and Larry's to hang out with them, Jill, Ryan and Koen. Jill took this pic of us going in....too bad that Larry's work car is in the background!
Sister, mom and me!
We attempted a picture of all four boys...you can see how well that went.
A cute one of Koen.

Lastly, Carson having a blast on this motorcycle at a birthday party on Sunday.
This was supposed to be his first "drop off" party. It was at Main Event here in The Woodlands. I went over with him the rules, my cell phone number...all of the stuff you are "supposed to do". Well, he wasn't having it! He kept asking me to stay, and quite honestly, I wasn't 100 percent comfortable with leaving him with parents that I didn't fully know. NOW, I kind of know them from school and the swimming pool and they are great people, but still! I was nervous!! So, maybe next time, we'll both have enough courage to master the drop off? Please make this slow down, please!!
