Trampoline fun

As always, we have a ton of fun on our trampoline. Here is Chloe and Josh playing duck duck goose....it gets hard when Keira is on the trampoline too. Caleb and Chloe play so well on it, they have so much fun. I am sure you will see many more trampoline pictures this summer....
Caleb is getting pretty good at his jumps...he can do a flip now and it is pretty cool.

Keira is just now getting to where she really likes being on the trampoline. She really only likes it when someone is jumping, she likes to be bounced. We have a lot of fun times on the trampoline, in the afternoon, the neighbor's tree provides shade for us, so we can play and not be worried about sunburn. Thanks friendly neighbors!!!

Grandpa Lunn's Birthday

HMMMMM......I wonder where my kids get their sweet tooth???? Just kidding, I am just as bad as Grandma......truth be told, Grandma was trying to keep her finger off her clothes so she wouldn't stain them, but I had to give her a hard time, right???
We celebrated Grandpa Lunn's birthday on Mother's day well....because it was his birthday....we Lunn moms were happy to share our special day with him - specially since we got to have some cake too....

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's day to me!!! My kids were nice enough to take pictures with me on Mother's day.....


I am a very lucky mom. My kids are amazing and I am so thankful to God for giving them to me. Caleb is so imaginative and sweet. Chloe is so helpful and giving, and Keira is developing into a sweet loving girl. I can't imagine I was this good as a child to deserve such great kids...

The moment we have all been waiting for........

Well, here she is, standing all on her own.....and not too long after that.....
she took her first few steps.....okay, so admittedly these were not her official first steps...apparently she took her first steps in church.... and this is the closest I could get to her first...now the fun begins...wobbly isn't even the right word to describe how she walks...it is pretty cute and she is pretty proud of herself.

Zoo fun

We went to the zoo with my parents also. We loved it so much that we got a season pass...can't wait to go again. By the way, there were animals there, I just decided you would rather see my animals than the zoo ones :)
Grandpa enjoyed the zoo
Caleb wouldn't take a nice picture here, but I think it is cute anyway...

Chloe only wanted to hold Grandpas hand, it was quite cute, and I think Grandpa LOVED it.
With the Texas grandkids....
After checking out the zoo, we went to the kids area (Caleb had been asking every 2 mintues, "can we go to the kids area yet?", so needless to say, he was very glad to get there) and had some lunch. We had packed a picnic and enjoyed the shade. Caleb looks pretty comfortable doesn't he?
The kids area is amazing, this is one of the main reasons we got a season pass, the kids love going here. There are lots of things to climb, a stream to play and splash in, a huge web to climb all over, and animals to see, feed, and pet.....what more could a kid ask for?






Keira checking out her surroundings....

Caleb was in heaven...he loved every minute of the kids area. He really enjoyed the stream, he got pretty wet....last time we were here, it was too cold to get wet, so he loved it.

Chloe wasn't far behind....she loved it too.

Park fun

We always take Grandpa and Grandma to the park when they come to visit. The kids love to got to the park by our house. I am sure that will change for Caleb b/c it is the park that he will be playing on at school. Caleb and his dad play tag and they have so much fun.
This time they played tag with the ball.....getting older and rougher....
Grandma took Keira for a ride down the slide....
Keira practices walking again...she is so close.
Chloe has been able to climb this wall for a few months now, but I have never taken her picture....so here she is at the top.

Our new favorite park

So, while my parents were here, we had to hit Cold Stone Cremery, one of Dads favorite ice cream shops. Of course, we are not ones to turn down ice cream.....
Right outside Cold Stone there is this play town and grass maze that the kids played in. They had sooo much fun. They didn't want to leave. The "town" is complete with a bank, gas station, fire station, and train station. The kids had so much fun pretending to get gas, shooting the breeze with everyone, and just simply enjoying the beautiful day.

This picture made me laugh b/c Caleb looks bigger than the door in the back ground....
Chloe in the grass maze
Grandma was happy to help Keira practice walking.
