RRE Picnic



A fun little lunch with Larson.  I was suppose to bring Subway but the line was too long so McD's was only other choice.  Larson is always accommodating and very grateful but I think that he was a little embarrassed that I brought McD's.  After all he technically is a 4th grader.  

 Kona Ice and book fair was an "ADDED"bonus.  The boys love it though and I really enjoyed being with the boys.

Track Season 2013

 Second year of track has come to an end.
Track of course is the other sport but Jordan was still able to improve on her times and the best part was a great new friendship was made.
Sydney is a Freshman running a 5:38 mile  (that's pretty darn good) and she is a great girl.  I love that Jordan is able to connect with the right friends.  Its just as much fun to cheer Sydney on during her races.

Pretty sure this is Jordans PR for her mile.   6:15.  Next goal is to get to 5:59.

Track takes a lot of time out of her spring semester but it is off season training for Cross Country.  Running never has an off season!  Cross Country training starts May1

Vegas Getaway


First things first:  straight to Kelly to let him do his magic.  Going to his salon is the biggest splurge that I do in life.  I leave his salon feeling like I have been at a day spa for the entire day.

Relaxing at the Pallazo

 First night out.

I love the Palazzo and Venetian hotels.  The rooms are amazing and the entire hotel so beautiful.


 Char introduced us to the fishing Amazon game.  Fun trying to catch the big one.


Amazing weather for the pool!

 So fun to have date after date!

Anyone that knows me, knows I love Vegas.
With shopping like this I am sure it will stay on my travel list.
 Tom leaves the shopping to the girls.

We decided one night to just go see if we could get tickets.  We didnt even get dressed up.
Didnt think that we would be at meet and greets and on front row.
I was texting and sending pictures to Jordan with the chance she would never speak to me again.
At least I got her this cool picture!

Great concert.  Only 60 people in a very intimate show.

Im sure he hates taking pictures with everyone.
We had so much fun and really enjoyed the night.
My sorry to everyone!
I missed my flight home.  This wasnt a good thing and certainly not on purpose.

While we were away, these were the reassuring pictures we would get from the kids.
We are such proud parents!

 We will keep all of them.  They always do a good job while we are gone and a sweet welcome home!

Let's Rodeo




So far the Roberts have gone to the rodeo without actually seeing the rodeo.
Maybe next year but we do spend the day there having tons of fun.





The kids love the carnival rides.  Just different from the normal ones at Six Flags or Sea World.

Bumper Cars!

Logan loves the fun houses.  Runs through them over and over again.  He is also a thrill seeker so it cracks me up that the attendant would have to stop the spinning wheel each time for Logan to exit the fun house.
Logan also hit his nose pretty hard in the house of glass as he smacked right into one of them.  He came out crying to me but that didnt last long before he was right back in there.

Jackson taking a turn to hold a tired Logan.  This kid weighs 50 lbs!

 Tom and I could invest in a couple of these games for our back yard.  The kids love them but of course the second they had one of their own they would say, ITS BORING!

Kind of surprised that Logan could go on this one.
Texas Tornado
The ride spins around really fast and then each individual ride spins in its own circle.  Thank Goodness he has siblings to take him on it because I certainly would not do well on this one.

 The petting zoo.
These animals are crazy.  They must not feed them before they bring them to the zoo.  All the animals basically attack you for the food.  Makes for some laughs that for sure.  Logan loved it!  One took the ice cream cone that holds the animal food right out of his hand and he ate it all.   Logan laughs hysterically because the goats will try to eat anything, including his shirt.



Action shot of Logan running away.

 Larson and Logan getting their inner farmer on.

I dont know Larson, the Llama kind of scares me!

No, Jordan we can not bring the sheep home with us.


Ok, so there was a moment where I couldnt see Larson.  Then after a few more moments I get the big kids to start looking for him.
Well, we found him in the corner with a goat sitting down all by himself.  Larson was just petting him.
True to Larsons character, he searches the one out and tries to make him feel better.
We were laughing because it did not surprise us.  Glad to see that Larsons compassion carries over to goats!

The kids will never cave me in on $8 funnel cakes when I can make these at home for them.
