lordy lordy, resa's not 40

we had a wonderful weekend last weekend.  a little mini vacation for the family and a celebration of resa.  it was also crammed full, as are most of our trips.  bring on the picture parade.  (on a side note i FINALLY figured out the photo problem and solved it!  woo hoo!  so i will probably be posting lots of pics over the next couple of days)

central market north has an awesome outdoor space.  a patio and a kids play area.  we ate dinner there.  ben was in heaven.  he loves grocery stores.

for our anniversary celebration we went to the circus.  marls was very excited.

davis's first circus.

they had fun, i promise.

i kind of thought d might get over stimulated, especially since it was way past her bedtime, but she LOVED it.

magnolia cafe on congress i heart you.  and your magnolia mud.  yummmmmm.

one tired puppy.

hitting up the south central market.  ben couldn't get enough.  and marls needed her picture taken with her favorite fruit.

i love this picture.  she loved that orange.

marley took this of me at the salt lick.  i think she did a pretty good job.

hanging out at the salt lick

ben and ben chowed down.  happy happy boys.

pickle face.

she was so unfazed by the pickle she decided to chew on it for awhile.

sweet sisters.

when they're older i am totally teaching them the sisters act from white christmas.  granny can make the costumes.  it will be awesome.

rocks  are awesome toys.
