wow. you boys keep me busy! i have a long list of things i need to get done around the house. if i ever get them completed i’m really looking forward to getting samuel’s f i r s t year scrapbook started. i promise i will sweet boy! i have too many family members asking where it is.. in comparison to jack’s rather large one on the coffee table. 🙂 truth is, im so grateful i can quickly stay up to date with writing our adventures on here. like our fun weekend we just had! it was our first trip to take you guys to the rodeo cook off!

ohh how excited i was to dress you two up! i didn’t get to put your pearl snap on you samuel, it was just too warm for that. i will have to come back and share a picture of it. so. darn. cute.

jack you did not seem impressed at all. i think part of it was the fact it was your nap time so the long drive over there had you in a daze for the most part. you just soaked it all in with those sweet big eyes. you enjoyed some chips, cotton candy and your first t w o carnival rides ever. honestly, they were mama’s first rodeo rides ever too. i think you are a little too spoiled.

samuel you enjoyed being carried, taking in the sights and sounds and then a nap in the stroller. you were so excited the last hour we were there, we sat in daddy’s company’s tent and you just stared at me and smiled the whole time, like “oh there’s my mama!”

jack, you confirmed our thoughts during our trip to the car. we don’t have to entertain you with the big exciting things to do! the biggest smile and laugh we got out of you was when daddy pretended to hit the caution cones on our way to the car. all the candy, rides and sites { paid for } didn’t do much for you. it was just heading to the car with a silly daddy { for free } that you seemed to enjoy the most.

that night daddy went out of town for the night to say goodbye to his bestfriend who will be moving out of state in a few weeks. you were more than excited to be woken up from your nap by your cousins who came to stay the night with us!
