Memorial Weekend

We went to the bay for the weekend and had a blast. Caroline experienced many firsts... swimming in a pool, going for a boatride, and eating an ice cream cone. The girls enjoyed swimming in all three of their swimming pools. I think Caroline is going to enjoy the bay as much as her big sis.

Sweet Rylan

The girls loved splashing the water

Caroline is all ready for her first boat ride.

Mommy and her girls

Juliann got to help Papa drive the boat.

Sweet sisters

Swimming again

Caroline loved the pool with the slide. She wanted to keep going down the slide!!! Mommy and Daddy had to take turns with her. You can't turn your back on her, she is a busybody!

Thank you Meme and Papa for having the bay house. We love spending time there with the family. Can't wait until the 4th when Jen, Jay, and Connor will be with us. We missed you guys this weekend. We are so happy summer is finally here!! This is my last week and school. I can't wait to spend the summer with the girls!!! More excitement and pictures to come tomorrow, my baby is turning 1!!!!!

Dance Recital

Juliann had her first dance recital Saturday night. She was adorable and did such a good job!!! This was my first dance recital too!! I sure did learn a lot. It is a lot of work to get one child ready and try to take care of a soon to be one year old. Thank you to mom who helped with Caroline and Andrea who took lots of pictures. Juliann and Riley took some pictures against the AWESOME backdrop before the big show.

The first dance the girls performed was their ballet dance. They were so cute and sweet!

Riley and Juliann dressed and ready for their tap dance. They danced to "Build me up, Buttercup"

All done!!!!

Thank you again, Andrea for sharing your pictures with me!!! Mrs. Jenna and her helpers did an OUTSTANDING job!!!!

Americana Music Jam

This past Sunday, Jeff and I attended the Americana Music Jam in Greuene. We had a blast!!! There was AWESOME music and friends!!!! We got to spend the day with some of our friends from College Station. Can't wait until the next get together. We took about 300 pictures, so enjoy a few...

As you can tell from the pictures, they day gets better and better. We were at the AMJ from noon to midnight listening to music. You would watch one band, then turn around and watch the next. It was AWESOME!!!!

Justin, me, and, Lou

Great friends... we love and miss you guys, Justin and Leslie

After the concert, we were walking to the bed and breakfast we were staying at when an RV stopped to pick us up. Two random guys picked up our crew and wanted to hang out. So we all got in the RV and drove to an empty shopping center. There is never a dull moment with this croud.

Wade and Chelsie even danced the night away.

We had a wonderful time and can't wait till next year. Thank you to our parents who kept the girls while we enjoyed a night away with our friends. And thanks to Connor who stayed in Aunt Jen's tummy till I almost made it to Sugar Land.

Welcome to the world - Connor Alan Savino

Jennifer and Jayson welcomed Connor in to the world May 17 at 12:56. He weighed 6 lbs 11 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. We are so excited for their family!!! Aunt Jen is going to be an awesome mother!!!

Juliann and Caroline can't wait to meet their cousin and play with him.

Connor is handsome!!! He has a head full of hair. I think he looks like his Daddy.

Yay!!!! I am finally an AUNT!!!!!

Proud Daddy... Uncle Jay is going to be a SUPER Dad!!!!

We can't wait until we get to see Connor again!!!

Lil' Salties

On Saturday, Juliann fished in the Lil' Salties fishing tournament with the help of her Daddy and PaPa. Before she left in the boat she told me she was going to go catch a red fish. She was right. Here is the 22 inch red she came back with. Mr. Tyler helped her with the casting contest. She loves Neise and Tyler and spending time with them at the bay!!! Can't wait for the summer!!

Here she is turning in her red and drum in to be weighed.

She was so excited about receiving her trophy and fishing pole!!!!

Showing off the goods!!!

Thank you to all the volunteers and sponsors who put this on!!! Every child who participated walked away with a new rod and reel and a trophy... how AWESOME!!!
