Spring 2012 - school pictures

First soccer season is in the books.

What a long season that was! It was cute at times, fun sometimes and damn right hard to watch at times.

But he did make some progress and wanted to play with his friends so that's good. He runs around pretty well but he can't keep it up 4 quarters and 8 minutes each. We don't have enough players to do a good rotation. Maybe next season we can have more kids on the team to help with that.

We are skipping spring season and waiting for the summer league to start maybe around June.

April misc pictures.

Dallas Zoo

Pictures from our last visit. We met up with the Grimmets - I noticed they check'ed in on Facebook so I texted them. What would we do without Facebook :)

Season passes

We're suckers for season passes. Okay, it's probably me being a cheap ass. We got a family season pass for $99. I figure if we spend $40 on tickets and $7 for parking for one visit and a pass lets us go unlimited times plus it included free parking...we'll make out money back!

Of course, without kids, we wouldn't have bought anything. Maybe this is why kids are expensive. Keeping them entertained and learning isn't cheap. Yeah, we could have done without but we try to make it a learning event so it feels worth it.

We have season passes to:
- Dallas Zoo
- Legoland Discovery in Grapevine mall
- Sealife in Grapevine mall

What a difference 6 months makes.

Jake had his 2nd dentist appt and we were fearing the worst since the last check up didn't go so well. He's 3 now so I guess he's a big boy now. He didn't cry at all and was a model patient! The best news was he had no cavities although he had a couple of trouble issues that needed better brushing.

Yeah, it's a picnic!

We finally got a outside dining table for the patio and we have dinner out there every so often to enjoy the weather before it gets too hot. I ask Jake if he wants to eat outside and he always says "yeah, it's a picnic"!
