Great East Texas Balloon Race 2010

We woke up this morning to at least 20 balloons passing over Longview as they got ready for the balloon race.

Ashton was more interested in the helicopter flying around. (that is what he is pointing at)

I love it when they call me big pap-a......

We had the best seats, right in front... they are blowing up the balloon for the national anthem.






Coltons favorite balloon was the pirate, it was the last balloon shown.

Puddle Jumping

I think that all these boys need to be happy are: water and dirt to make mud. I will never forget the Texas rain. It rains so hard the water pours over the gutters....... making puddles. And it is really hard to just walk by a puddle if you are under the age of 5. So in passing you must walk directly through the middle of the puddle to ensure the biggest splash. Then re enter because of the excitement of splashing MUD everywhere is FUN!!





Enjoy the movie!

Trip to Arkansas

Spider man is supposed to be getting ready to go!

Slide in to home plate and......SAFE
While Jeff was mt. biking we were playing in the dirt. Ashton fell and it all spiraled out of control from there.

Making a dirt angel

I think he has caught one inch of air.

And Colton is SAFE too.... but his was on purpose.

Look under his foot (there is a little skate board) He is practicing his ollie.

Setting up for his big move: wa wa wa (watch)

The ride home is now peaceful!

In the future... about 12 years down the road he may not want this picture on here:
but he was knocked out!!

He is always styling.
