More Fun Outtings

We went to Ripley's Believe It or Not- very strange... This is an American Flag quilt made of 7000 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place ribbons a couple won at State Fairs over thirty years.

We went for a corn dog after the museum- I was excited, I love corn dogs, but then I couldn't taste it because I had such a bad cold. (I'm getting better.) Jence was tired of his stroller, but he seemed just fine sitting by me the whole meal- which wasn't long considering it was just a corn dog...

Like Kiki he seems to enjoy the stick. (Kiki waits and watches while you eat a popsicle wanting the stick.)

Behold, Jensen's new favorite pastime-much to my dismay. He likes to stand there (though he can't get up there himself- he just yells at me to put him there) and then moves to the left, until he forgets to hold on and falls on his head and holds it against me for the next ten minutes.

Today we took the boys miniature golfing at Mt Atlantis. We had a great time and the boys were so good- I think that they were amazed at having found Atlantis.


Jence with his very own golf ball.
The boys observed my mad golfing skills.

Brittany retrieving her ball from the stream, which we both had to do...twice.

Look at that mug.

Jence helps me go for a hole in one.

The boys, chillin' on the green and eatin' their golf balls.

Jensen wasn't sure if he wanted relinquish his ball to the hole.

The Aquarium

We went to the Aquarium and had a fabulous time. The boys behaved very well (Jence only fell apart at the very end), and we had a pleasant surprise when the military discount took the price from $17 down to $4!

We got to touch the sea rays. I'm not sure if the boys saw the rays, but they really liked the water.
Brittany showed Tristan the fishies.

After Tristan enjoyed the fishies so much I thought Jence would like to see them closer, but he just kept kissing me, until I realized that "look at the fishies" sounds a lot like, "Give me kisses"

Sittin' and chillin' with the fishes.

Trying not to smile in the face of the camera during a fit.

Pearls...
Jensen watching the camera even while touching a strange creature- me intently watching that it doesn't freak out and do something weird in my hand...

This iguana couldn't get enough of Jensen...

You should have seen the temper tantrum that replaced this smile when the sword had to go back to it's scabbard....
Tristan enjoys the challenge of climbing over things- and people.

Myrtle Beach pt I

So, as momma was trying to get all ready for our flight out of Virginia Jensen decided that he would not be napping, or behaving, for that matter. He got into the diaper bag and managed to uncrew the lid to his formula... that's what's all over the floor.

Here we are waiting for the plane to take off- which took a whole lot of patience for both of us.

We met up with Brittany and Tristan and the boys were excited to see each other again.

Friends, friends... and Jensen had to be eating to be happy.

Our first sharing experience.

We caught this act of robbery on film.

HA! Got it.
Wiggle worms
Jensen is trying to crawl, and getting better every day.

Bath boys.
We took a pit stop on our walk to take a dip in the hot tub.

Monkey see monkey do- someone wasn't happy sitting in the stroller.

Twins- the post church look. Jensen is a born cheeser. Every time a camera comes out, so does a big old smile. Tristan doesn't seem to care...

Playing.

The crew

The mischief starts.

Brittany got a surprise delivery on her Anniversary, wait for it...

Surprise!

The smile says it all. Even with all the phone time, pictures, and emails it's so nice to have phyisical evidence that you really do have a husband out there...

Sitting in real car seats! Once again, the cheese man

They were both playing with the phone but the stupid camera beeps before it takes the picture, and they are conditioned...

This is the end of part one- stay tuned for more.
