Me: What is your favorite thing about being a 4 year old?
Luke: Getting presents

Me: What are your favorite toys?
Luke: My spaceshuttle, ocean boat, bat cave and pirate ship
(basically we own every Imaginext toy that is made)

Me: Who is your best friend?
Luke: You!! (Wow, I feel so special!!), but then Luke added - Everyone is my best friend (oh well)

Me: What is your favorite food?
Luke: pizza

Me: Where is your favorite place to go eat?
Luke: Skeeters

Me: What has been your favorite vacation?

Luke: a lizard

Me: What did you like best about preschool this year?
Luke: Going outside!

Me: What is your favorite thing to learn about?

(I now feel much better about his answer to the previous question!)

Horseshoe Bay

Over the 4th of July weekend, we took the kids and stayed at a resort in Horseshoe Bay. I have no idea where this is, but we were in the car for a long time! The kids had a blast though, and it was a great weekend of relaxation and fun time with the kids. We spent our time at the pool, the beach, doing all sorts of arts and crafts activities the resort had for the kids, cooked smores and watched fireworks. We were exhausted after just being there a couple days, but I think that's because we spent most of our time outside and it was 100 degrees!


The resort has a man-made beach with water coming in from the Lake, but it is barricaded in to where the water is about 6 inches deep in the whole area, perfect for little kids!
First smore party, Abby was not happy because she did not have her smore yet....don't worry, she definitely got to eat one too!







Doing arts and crafts!



Waiting for fireworks...




Not everyone was happy to wait on the fireworks!



I think Luke had the most fun watching the fireworks, but Abby seemed to like it once they got started too :-)

Luke loved jumping into the water, he could do that all day long!



Happy 4th birthday Luke!

My baby boy turned 4 this week, I can't believe it!! We had a super fun day, lunch with friends and out to dinner with our families and back home to open presents. Luke is such a sweet boy and this has been a wonderful year with him. I am so blessed to have been his mom for 4 years!! Here are some pictures from his birthday.



Luke likes anything with pirates!


A tag reader from Nana and Papa, Luke loves to read!

The space shuttle from Grandma and Granddad, Luke has been asking for this since Christmas, so I am glad someone bought it for him!


A new bike from mommy and daddy, Luke didn't really ask for this but we decided it was about time he learns to ride a bike! Fortunately, he did like it and jumped right on!


No one wanted the princess to be left out, so Grandma got her a new tea set :-)


Blowing out 4 candles!


Practicing riding his new bike!
