Normally on Memorial weekend we go to the lake or to Missouri. This is the first time in years that we decided to stay in town. Matt is just plain sick of traveling! It was a great decision. We had a fabulous weekend!
Friday morning Roman and I went to Lindsey and Chloe's house for a play date. The kids had a blast playing outside!
We blew up her little pool and they just played and played!
They were so happy!
Roman loves watching Chloe!
This is how he got in and out of the pool. Roman actually tried to get in and did a full flip in the water. He looked up at me as Lindsey is gasping for breath and I'm just laughing. He was fine, but still has NO FEAR!
We moved the slide to go into the water, then they decided that they loved the swing too!
"It's my turn!"
Later, we cleaned up and had some lunch. At lunch, Roman said his first word!! Lindsey can testify that he looked down at her dog and said "dog" so clearly! We were both so proud!!
Saturday morning, we packed up Lindsey and Corey's car and all headed to the Ft. Worth Zoo. It was so much fun!!
The mommies and our toddlers
The Long family
The Karam's decided to join us!
We loved the monkeys!!
The dads and their kiddos
Roman prefers the taller view of the animals
We tried to get a picture of us girls. It kinda worked...
The elephants were so cool!
I was trying to show Roman the Giraffes!
Roman said "turtle" and "bird" for the first time! Daddy got to witness both!
Daddy is so much fun!!!!
We love the Long family!
Poor Roman was getting so hot and tired!
The babies fell asleep just in time to get back in the car. We thought for sure they would continue their nap the whole way home. Not the case! They stayed awake the entire drive home. Crazy!
Once we got back to our house, we decided to let Chloe and Roman play together to get their energy out. It worked! They kept playing peek-a-boo in this little tent that we have. It was adorable!!!
Sunday, we went to church and then just lounged around all day. It was fabulous. Monday afternoon we packed up and headed to Jay and Suzy's house for a Memorial Day pool party. We had a great time! Roman loves all of his buddies!
Roman, Austin, and Reece had to take a snack break from the pool
Everyone hanging out in the water!
Roman loved eating his snacks in the shade
Roman didn't like mommy's sunglasses as much as we thought he would!
Jackson enjoyed Roman's crab toy!
The guys getting to relax and hang out
Jamie, Austin, and Sara
They fixed ribs to eat and Roman was obsessed!
Nothing like chillin by the pool!
Reece loved playing in Roman's crab too!
We tried to get a family picture together
Overall, it was a busy, fabulous weekend! Thanks to all of the men and women serving in our military!

We had the BEST time with ya'll! I'm so proud of Roman and his words. He will shock you daily with new words when you least expect it! The kids had so much fun together the entire time, but the best was watching them play together in the tent. I will never forget that Chloe went to you when she bumped her head. So funny!
