summer kick off

Our last day of school was Thursday June 2nd. It was an early release day which meant that Keri would be home in time to ride along to Addie's last dance class with us! We decided to make it a family fun night and on the way home from dance we stopped to eat a burger and drink some root beer at Twisted Root.

The restaurant was in a newish outdoor shopping area that we had never visited. So we took advantage of the nice evening (and the fact that no one had to get up early for school the next morning!) and browsed through some shops and explored the shopping area. We discovered the spray park and next to it was a huge sandy area with a playground, beach volleyball, bean bag game, and horseshoes. Addie and Doak loved the sand and had the best time playing in it! We will definitely return to this spot many times through out the summer.

Look at that bling!! Is that football-related, I presume?

So funny Emily! Yes, we refer to that ring as "my precious" from Lord of the Rings. It's a conference championship ring from Hardin Simmons from his first year of coaching there during grad school.

I hope you say "my precious" in the appropriate creepy voice!
