FOOTBALL IS HERE!!! Finally! There were some serious football withdrawls in this household.

We took Addison to Cowboys' Training Camp today. It's so nice that they have it in the air conditioned Alamodome and we don't have to sit outside and sweat for an hour. Addi had a pretty good time! She clapped when everybody else clapped, yelled "ball!" when she saw the balls flying in the air, and definitely turned some heads in her little pint-sized Tony Romo jersey :)

We went to the museum today with Great Grandma Tonya, Auntie Anne, and Aysia. They had some kind of interactive exhibit going on that was a little too difficult for Addi to enjoy. She had a great time outside though and in the tree house!

Fingers crossed...Charlie may have an AMAZING opportunity on the job front!!!

Happy 4th of July! We spent the fourth at The Johnston's farm again this year for the third year in a row. It's quickly becoming one of my favorite traditions. The first year we went we announced that we were expecting little Addi. The second trip Addison was just 4 1/2 months old. What's funny about that trip though is that I distinctly remember 2 different groups of people there. Those with kids (grown adult kids don't count!) and those without (Addi was only 4 months old so she didn't count...no running around yet!). Those of us without kids sat inside in the air conditioning or on the porch underneath the fans having good conversations and enjoying our cold beers. Then there was the other group...I remember watching 10 or so little kids running around the pool and swimming with all of the parents sitting in lawn chairs around the pool watching them with their trusty adult beverages in hand and Mom Braden telling Charlie and I, "just wait...that will be you next year." Sure enough, Addison had us around the pool ALL DAY LONG. We were officially thrown head first into the mommy and daddy crowd.

The morning of the fourth Addison went to her first parade. She held interest for a little while but it was ridiculously hot and nap time was quickly approaching so we had to cut the parade a little short. None the less we all had a great time and Papa and Poppo really outdid themselves with the barbeque. Thank you Chris and Gayle for a wonderful weekend!
