We had SO much fun in Spring, TX with GG & Double G!! The kids got to swim & play and we weren't ready to come home! It was a little bit of a crazy drive home. We left late in the afternoon. We wanted to stay and help with a few things around the house which turned out to be a blessing!!
As we hit Madisonville, about 2 hours from home, we were in bumper to bumper traffic. At first, we couldn't figure out what was going on. There was debris everywhere, power lines snapped in two, trees snapped and all over the southbound side of I-45...and then it hit us, we had just missed a really bad storm, possibly a tornadoe...by MINUTES! There were cars in ditches, on access roads, it was a mess! I have yet to find information on it, but I talked to a family friend who's son was on his way back to A&M and was in it and said that it was in fact a tornado and that his car was lifted off the ground!! UGH...glad he's ok!! Anyways, crazy end to a very happy weekend! We hope to visit again before they sell the house :)

Our day at Celebration Park

Nick had the day off , so we took the kids along with Amanda, Lainey & Brady to Celebration Park in Allen. They have a fun splash area that the kids LOVED!

We were smart & brought tents & went early!! People were envious of our smart planning :) lol!

Here are a few pics from our morning!

Daddy & Boys enjoying some shade!


Aunt Amanda and the 3 little Bff's!


Aunt Brooke & Lainey Faith


Daddy & Coleby getting water dumped on their heads...Coleby loved this!!!



Lainey is the only one who likes to pose for picture time!

The boys are SO excited about this year...they have never REALLY seen fireworks before...they have always been too small.
Our first July 4th with them was in the NICU at Presby when they were first born. We had a corner room on the 3rd floor and we had perfect view of 2 really great fireworks shows surrounding Plano. Awww...love those memories! We really want this year to be special, too!!!!

I'm sure we will have many more pics from this weekend!! We LOVE the 4th!!
Fireworks, family & friends! Fun stuff!
HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!
