Festivals, Ikea, fire ants and more.....

Matt went on his first over night trip the other day. He's enjoying flying and we love living under the same roof with him again (for the most part). He's so handsome in his pilot uniform.

We took the kids to Main Street Days. It was one of the coolest festivals I've ever been too. They had a lot to do there and the kids loved it. Texas is big into there festivals, we can't wait to go to another one.
The kids first ride together, they loved it, and Ava didn't freak out at all.


Our first trip to Ikea. Wow this store is amazing, I could spend all day in there. And you gotta love the play area for the kids. Genius!Ava was too little to go to the play area so she hung out with us, she especially liked the beds, she got into almost all of them and even talked our sweet friend Mindy into joining her in one of them.

The Tams warned us about fire ants, but unfortunately Ava and I have both been a victim to there burning bite. We were on a walk at the park and Ava stepped right into an ant hill. Thankfully she only got a couple bites, but they were red and swollen for days and then scabbed over. Poor little Mava Mae.

This is how I found Quinn today, I laid him down in his bed for a nap, but apparently he got back up pushed two chairs together (because that's more comfortable?) and cuddled up to his bunny and conked out. I can't wait to show this picture to his girlfriend someday.

We took the kids and Matt's mom to see the Dallas temple a few weeks ago. It is such a beautiful temple, in the back of this pic you can see the stone it's made of. It's gorgeous.
