Tristan's 5th Birthday Bash!

Tristan's birthday party was a huge success. The kids had a blast on the slide, and with Carrie's impromptu scavenger hunt! It was really a great weekend!

The slide was so much fun!

What Tristan learned in swimming lessons

This is Tristan jumping off of the diving board on the last day of his week of swimming lessons. You can see that he learned a lot!

Here are some pictures of the inside of our new house. The batteries on my camera died before I could make it outside, so those will come soon.

This is the play/computer room. We enter the house through this room. It is off of the carport.

Ahhh...My favorite room in the house....our kitchen

We are enjoying the house so much. It has really helped us to spend more family time together and the kids love the backyard...which you will get to see soon.

What a Day!

Today was a good, but emotional day. I am so happy for Tristan, he was so excited today!!! He spent most of the day dancing and singing around the house and asking when Mima was going to call. We are also feeling a little lost right now....it is too quiet without Tristan here. The house feels empty, but we will all adjust. What is most important is that Tristan is on cloud nine right now. We can't wait to get to Baton Rouge this weekend. Should be fun!

Apparently our kids have a favorite summertime accessory....
