We went to the Circus!

We went to the Shrine Circus a few weeks ago and had so much fun! It was our first circus! The kids loved it and so did I! We got to see tigers, elephants, camels, a dog show, ladies climbing robes & swinging. These guys jumping rope, I know sounds normal, but it was so much more. Another group doing more gymnastics moves. Guys motor crossing , (loud but good), AND the man was shot out of the cannon! It was worth it! Go to the Circus! 

Tips I learned: 1. The "free" ticket they all received from school was not really "free". That's ok, we still had fun, but they told us that section was full, so their tickets were 1/2 off. When we got in there that section was NOT full. Just an FYI. 

2. During intermission they opened up the floor to kids & parents to ride elephants, camels, have your picture taken with a big snake, pony rides. etc. This is NOT the end of it! Don't leave! 

3. Go ahead and buy the light up toys. We didn't, but I think the kids would have had a great time playing with them through the event. 

4. Might want to plan on going to an early show. We went at 7:30 and were not out until 11:00!!

 We love Cotton Candy!

Beach and Birthdays

In May we went to Gulf Shores. The weather was wonderful! It was not miserably hot yet!!

The ocean, notice no waves?!?! Just one day, but it was perfect for the kids to adjust to it.

4th of July

Caroline's birthday

We celebrated at Metroplex Gymnastics for all 3 of them this year since they are only one week apart. Everyone got to pick out their own cake for their actual birthday this year.

Pregnant!

Little behind on my updates! I am pregnant with baby #4! Hannah Marie will / should arrive on October 23rd. 3 1/2 weeks to go and she will be here! We are so excited and can't wait to meet her. We thank God for this blessing! The kids CANNOT WAIT! This picture was taken in June, so I have grown some since then!

Italy February 2012

Better late than never right? I went with Brent in Feb. to Padova, Italy on one of his many business trips  there this year.  Ok,  he has really only traveled about 4 times this year I think, but it feels like A LOT to me! Between Italy, Germany, England, China and multiple trips to Ireland it is quite a bit for someone that stays at  home like me. ;) My friend Shannon met us there, so we were able to go sight seeing and traveling while Brent and Sean were at work. Shannon's husband was nice enough to let her go alone while he stayed home working and helping with kids! We stayed in Padova, but took the train to Venice several days. It took about 15 min. with the fast train. I got to travel alone to Venice one day before Shannon arrived, which made me a little nervous since English is not the primary language spoken.  I did make it there and back though!

 Eating out at a pizza place in Padova.

 Train ride back to Padova after our day in Venice, they have a big festival similar to Mardi Gras.

Leather district in Florence. We also went to Rome for a day trip. We could have spend days just in Rome!

I have more pictures somewhere, if I can find them! We got a new computer a few months ago and I am STILL learning how to use this thing! Hopefully I can catch up on all of our news from this year!!

Christmas 2011

Christmas in February, I know. Time has flown by! I was going to write captions under pictures, but under preview, the pics don't show up! Only numbers and letters?!?! So, if anyone that is an expert blogger knows how to fix this please let me know.

From memory the first picture is with Kate, Caroline and Aunt Carole. We got to go deliver Christmas presents, I think it was Christmas eve. The week before we also made gingerbread houses, made cookies for Santa and decorated Pop's room at the nursing home.

The Gregory Grandchildren made a Happy Birthday Jesus cake and Pappy read the Christmas story to them Christmas Eve before the Christmas Eve church service. Along with opening presents of course.

Then on to Mawmaw and Pawpaw's house. Kate had "tea" with Aunt Amy and she made sure that she cut up some cheese for Santa Mouse. Kate and Caroline got Baby Alive dolls for Christmas, they do it all eat and fill up their diapers! Mason got a fun pirate ship. On to fun in February!
