T minus two weeks

Lately we've been getting in all those last minute things that our on our "bucket list". This summer is the best so far, the kids and I have both had a blast. They were great, if you take away four days of straight head shaking and ready to give them back to school. I'm really going to miss them next week, more than they will ever know.

We headed back from Victoria to Seguin to unpack for the evening. The next day we were up early for Fiesta Texas.

Hadlee driving Aunt Cy in the 50 something Chevy.




We rode the water rides and Hays kept on wanting to go on a "thrill ride". Harper had enough of riding on the log ride so Hannah, Hadlee, Hays and I went on our first and last roller coaster.




We had to wait in lines but they weren't that bad.




Thanks to our fan club, we had some action shots. This was a four seater roller coaster that spins in circles while going up and down. I wish I had a picture of Hays and Hannah, their faces were hilarious during the ride. Poor Hays didn't want anything more with ups and downs after the ride.




The second time on the log ride was just as fun. Harper and I were the fan club this time. Poor Harper was in tears after our first ride.




Break-time enjoying our afternoons treats.




Hays posing while we were waiting on the girls. We are already talking about next year.



Hadlee and Harper wanted breakfast in bed. Fruit kabobs and oatmeal were their requested breakfast.
This picture looks a little deceiving because Hadlee was awake and super excited to start her day.



Yeah to the start to "fun day".



We played all day and went out to eat to continue our fun.




What's more fun than a lounging trip through Buccees.




Our night ended with Karoake, a special request from Hadlee.




We finally made it to Landa Park. The kids loved the super slide.




Harper taking a little break. They played hard for five hours and I had to beg them to take a break.




Hadlee loved fishing with a net and baggie. She wanted to take home a fish.




The next day we chilled at home playing lots of school.




They had lots of field trips to the backyard.




We still love our pool. The pecans are starting to fall so they may put a hamper on all the pool parties.




I had a post about "accidents happen" but somehow it didn't save the long story of the broken window.



Hays caused some excitement with his baseball. The upside is that the window sure looks nice and shiny now!



We went and helped our Daddy finish remodeling his lockerroom. The lockerroom was our hangout during August.



After working in the lockerroom, we headed to San Antonio to pick up a couch. I thought we were meeting someone at his storage room because the address was IH-410. It was their house and after looking at the couch we left with nothing. So we were hungry and after driving around for 30 minutes ended up at the market.




We were all looking our best.....I'm pretty sure Hadlee had 3 ponytails in her hair.



The kids had a busy social calendar on Saturday.



Hadlee was being Ms. Sassypants. I don't remember everything that was coming out of her mouth. WoW girlfriend!



We had a swimming party at Mrs. Yeats. She just had the planters put in, I'm in love. Then we headed to Peter Piper Pizza for a birthday party.



Now we have 10 more days before 1st grade!
