We have some very special friends from Houston P.S. and Claude that stopped by to visit and play with Maggie. They are very special people to us and we love getting to spend time with them. Here is a picture of Claude and Maggie on their trip through Dallas.
The month of July is a very busy birthday month for us. We end June with Aly's birthday, have Robby's birthday, and then my nephew Drake's birthday all back to back. Here is a picture of all of the cousins from the big family birthday party. It was fun getting to see Allen's kids. They are growing up so fast.
L-R: Maggie, Aly, Dirk, Maddy, Robby, Kennedi, and Drake
Last weekend we hosted the Dunham's. This is Jack's sisters family. They are always so much fun. They got here Thursday night, so we stayed up late just catching up and playing. Friday, we hit our neighborhood pool and hung out while Jack was working. We then came back and all tried to take naps. On Friday night we headed out to Gatti Town. It was lots of fun. Here is a pic of the 3 cousins before we headed out. Maggie had so much fun and enjoyed all the bright lights and fun things at Gatti Town.

Saturday was a very busy day. I woke up early and took our good friend Rick and Stacy to the airport for their return trip to Maryland. It will be a long two weeks without Stacy and Michael around, but we ill have Jenny and Will to play with.
After I got back we had our traditional breakfast tacos, hit the showers and headed out to McKinney Trade days. It was not the place for Chad and Max, but the rest of us had lots of fun! We then went bowling on a free bowling pass I had. (Love Teacher gifts!) Here is a pic that we took at the end of our bowling game. You can tell we had lots of fun!
We ended the night by hitting the Magic Time Machine. It has not changed in years. It is still smelly, and gross inside. It was a lot of fun for the kids and that is what makes the night. Kate who is afraid of everyone did really well. It will be fun to take Maggie one day. Jack and I didn't get any pics inside, but we did get one pic to end the night.
We had a fun time with the Dunhams. We love when they come and visit. We can't wait to go to Houston in a few weeks to celebrate some more of our summer birthdays. Max will be turning 7 and Jack's dad will have a birthday as well. It will be lots of fun!
On a sad note: My best friend from college moved away this past week. We got to fit in one last dinner before they headed out west. We are very happy for them, but I am very sad that they are gone. I know they are ready for their new adventures, and can't wait to settle down. I wish them all the best. Here is a pic from dinner with them. Best of luck Matt, Sarah and Brody. We can't wait to come and visit.
all that looks like so much fun!!! y'all are having a great summer!
