Memorial Day

It was true Americana at its finest as we sat outside in the beautiful Texas contry side with Cicadas chirping, the smell of sunscreen & bbq, and the sound of early american rock n'roll...In deed we felt very grateful to be enjoying such a wonderful day in such a wonderful country!  It is because of the many men and women who faught for this country that we can enjoy this kind of life today!  It was their moral courage and commitment to families and nation that fueled their strength. 

We had a wonderful time at the Gardiner homestead.  Softball, swimming, zipline, laughs, and good food, LOTS.OF.GOOD. FOOD!....(you see the Williams and the Gardiners dont mess around when it comes to food!)

This is a walking stick that is the size of my four arm...not sure something that size should still be considered an insect..

A grass hopper the size of my fist....








The playhouse


the horse swing






 

Ren is crazy and loves to jump off the rock ledge
Rylan's favorite question is "Do I look cool?"  and as you can tell, he does!

The big slide with Dad....

The handoff

The catch
Yay!! We did it!!

This is the swim competition...Yes we had swimming races...I know it looks like they are doing syncronised swimmin...but for the record it was actually a tie! 



 After a long day of play, time to chill in the theater for a movie....
