Double Dare

Cooper will do anything for a snack (in this case, a Kit-Kat).  Greg dared Cooper to take off his clothes and run naked to the end of the driveway.  The goofy boy did it!!

Happy Birthday Greg

Happy Birthday Greg, we love you very much!

Dad and his babies!

 Reagan and Cooper made a sign for the birthday boy

 Reagan and Cooper wanted to make cupcakes for Greg, but we ran out of time, so we had to buy them

Unfortunately, we didn't get to enjoy the cupcakes tonight because we had our Bible study group.  But, they'll get eaten soon enough!

Tractor Ride

On the way home from the zoo, we had to stop back by Greg's office to pick up his car.  And a special treat for the kids, Greg took them for a ride on the tractor!

Saturday with the Sandidges

We had a busy Saturday afternoon...



Greg & Cooper mowed the grass

 following in his daddy's footsteps

 checking in to make sure he's doing it just right

 Reagan and Cooper played in the sandbox

 We went shopping for a new bicycle for Reagan, but Cooper found a little something for himself

 Reagan thought that it looked like fun

 Cooper was the second customer of the Salon de Sandidge

 Greg and I had another date night while Cooper and Reagan went to Parents' Night Out at their gymnastics facility.  We went to dinner, grocery shopping and then surprised Reagan with a brand new bicycle when she got home. When she walked through the door she excitedly exclaimed, "Who's bike is this?  How did it get here?  Who bought it?"  She ran to both me and Greg and gave us hugs and kisses and kept saying "thank you, thank you"

 Cooper had to test it out too!

Office Visit

I had a dinner meeting for work tonight, and I didn't want to try and find a babysitter on such short notice...So the kids got to take a trip to see where their dad works.  I drove them to his office and then he took them back home as he went.  They thought his office was "really cool" and "awesome".  I think they enjoyed getting to spend some time with just dad.  Of course, he was "fun dad" and took them out to eat and then had Rita's Ice for dessert!

Travel Surprise

A long holiday weekend gave us the opportunity to travel to Tennessee and visit family.  The kids were so excited ~ we didn't tell them we were going until we picked them up from school!

Once we got to Gigi and Bubba's house, they couldn't wait to go fishing

of course, Reagan wanted to take a boat ride and see the sunset

Cooper was pretty excited to go on the boat too
