Homemade Popsicles

Jeff has been out of town working the A&M baseball camp for the past few days so I packed the kids and headed to Paris. Harper found my mom's old Popsicle molds. So why not make Popsicles at 8 a.m.??







Yummy!

No Longer a Titan

The last few weeks have been a whirlwind.  June 6th Jeff interviewed for the head baseball coach position at Flower Mound Marcus High School (his alma matter). June 7th Jeff was offered the job and accepted it.  We put our house on the market on June 18th while we were on a week long vacation to the beach.  We received an offer on the first day for full price.  Seemed too good to be true. We accepted the offer and signed the contract while we were on vacation.  When we returned from the beach we spent 3 days looking at houses in the Flower Mound area.  We found one that we were ready to put an offer on and then our buyers backed out on day 9 of their 10 day option period.  Ugh - so our house went back on the market and thankfully we had not placed our offer yet. We are still playing the waiting game and trying to wait for the right buyer to come.  It's pretty stressful trying to keep the house clean with two kids running around and doing their thing. We have spent lots of time away from the house playing with friends and eating at Chick-fil-A to attempt to keep the house clean.

Jeff hit the ground running at Marcus by working a few of their camps, having meetings with his new assistant coaches, booster club, administrators, etc.

We have enjoyed the last 5 years as a Centennial Titan family but are so excited for this next step in Jeff's career.

Weekend at the Lake

Last weekend Jeff and I headed out to the lake with our friends.  Thanks to Aunt Beka and Grandad Sherman who split the time with the kids.   Natalie's family has a fantastic lake house on Richland Chambers Lake in East Texas.  My college roomates and I have been out several times to the lake house but this was the first time that we took our husbands. We enjoyed swimming, eating, talking, playing outdoor games, relaxing, and sleeping in.

Love that you can see all of the stars over the lake

Loved our weekend away from the city.
Thanks to Charlie for taking all of the awesome photos. Check him out if you need a professional photographer for your family or event. 

Frisco Sci-Tech Discovery Center

Last week we meet up with a few friends at the Sci-Tech Discovery Center in Frisco.  It was our first time to visit and the kids had a great time doing a little hands on learning.

They had this cool display of sports equipment and balls all cut in half.  I learned what the inside of all of the different balls looks like.


We had a great time and I highly recommend it for anyone with young kids who lives in the North Cities area. 

4th of July

4th of July we got together with a few friends for a fun cookout.  Ashley's parents hosted us at their home.

Harper loved the big slide.  She and Anna did it over and over.



Bounce house fun




Brody hung out in the pool for most of the evening.




Of  course Harper had eaten her entire popsicle before I snapped the photo.

I think Graham liked his!

What a fun time with friends.
