Yard, Bikes. and Ice Cream Galore

Our first couple of weeks here have been great, and we have been enjoying a lot of time outside and the open open spaces!

The boys have been asking to go to Boo Park since the last time they went a couple of years ago, and one weekend Mark and Betty took them. It's a park about an hour and a half south of here, that was dedicated to a boy that died in a car crash as a teenager, and he loved dragons. It's a really nice park and the boys were happy to be back.

They also visited a little science center close to the park, and Benjamin rode a giant cow around the mall, haha!

This park is a nice park near my doctor's office.

Enjoying time in the back yard  playing, helping grandpa and grandma, and roasting hot dogs and s'mores.

At the nature trail by the house, throwing duds with grandpa and grandma one evening.

They have had their fair share of ice cream, and are sampling all the good places in town. When Betty and I do water aerobics a couple of evenings a week, Mark and the boys have 'guy time,' which usually entails ending the evening with ice cream. Lucky kids!

One afternoon we went down to Mark's work, and they boys had fun feeding all the puppies dog treats.

They have made friends with a couple of the boys on the street, and like to ride bikes and play with them when they are out and about.

Mark and Betty take bike rides several times a week and the boys like riding down to the airport with them when they get done with their rides.

And having lots of water gun fights!

Another weekend we went to Carlyle lake and the boys rode across the dam while we walked.

Walking their bikes across the suspension bridge.

It was a beautiful (and very hot) day.

We ended the afternoon at the park and had a picnic.

We are very happy and thankful to be here for the next few months.

And excited to meet Baby Girl in about 10 weeks!
