Bubble Man, Sandcastle Practice, & MOVING!

Found these two having some fun in the sink the other day making bubbles out of hand soap. They were cracking Guy and I up with all the silly things they were doing with those bubbles. Funny boys! "Just call me BUBBLE MAN, ok Mom!" Or Santa. And yes, Ty is eating the bubbles in the back :)
Ty was loving this crazy straw drink on a hot day. I don't think he came up for air until it was gone! It is seriously way too hot here right now so we made our way to Lake Ray Roberts to cool off...or at least try to!
On our way we spotted this and thought it was funny since we call Brayden BB
He, of course, had to show off his muscles!
I wish we had discovered this place sooner because it was not too far away and we really had so much fun there. It had a nice beach with sand to play in by the lake and the boys had a blast!
Some good sandcastle practice for the "real" beaches we'll be playing in soon. I can't wait!
Ty chilling after a hard days work
On our way home we spotted something going on, so we got off the freeway to investigate. It was a big car show thing and they had some fun things to see. BB was excited to sit in here.
And ring the liberty bell to support our troops
This was my favorite...A PINK firetruck! With a pink firefighter suit even!


But sadly the fun is over...the rest of August is just crazy. My head is spinning just thinking about it!

Guy's company flies us out next week to scope out Florida and try to find an area/place we want to live. Please let us find a place because it is stressing me out big time!

And the end of the month we are heading to Oregon real quick for a family reunion with Guy's family and we're running the Hood to Coast Relay with them. We have to completely move out of our apartment before we go and then after Oregon, we immediately drive to Florida and (fingers crossed) will have a place to move into.

Phew, so in between all of this craziness, on my few "empty days," we will be organizing, packing, gathering doc records, saying our goodbyes, cleaning, and basically just going crazy. I tell you, this is tough to do with 2 kids. If I survive the move and drive to Florida without losing my mind it will be a real miracle! So wish us luck and goodbye blog for awhile. I just don't have time to keep it up right now, but I will update once we are settled in Florida and starting our new adventure. I am excited to become a Floridian soon...it's just so fun to say! :)

Texas I will miss you though....it's gonna be really hard to leave :(

Where is that lake? It looks so fun! You guys are always doing fun things. Maybe when our kids get older, it will be doable. It's hard to go anywhere with a baby. Even church is way too much work!

Jess, it's called Lake Ray Roberts and its about an hour away, just north of Denton. We had a blast there so you'll definitely have to go once Olivia gets older :)

I really love and admire how you guys always "explore" where you live and stop at random things. I need to do that too. So many cool things to find! We've never even taken the kids to Utah lake and it's JUST DOWN THE STREET. I'm so lame.
Good luck finding a place to live. I can't wait to see in OR!!!! You know I'll be walking my legs the whole H2C! LOL!

It sounds like a busy month but atleast you get to have some fun in Oregon. I am so jealous you guys are running hood to coast. We can't wait to see you guys in October, when are you guys coming? Hope packing goes well and you get everything you need to get done!
