Caves!

We had the best day today. Kaden came home with us after the fireworks last night, and we went to the Blanchard Springs Caverns today. It was a long drive, but so worth it. We had a great time. The boys were completely overwhelmed by the size of the caves. They thought it was so cool that they were actually underground.


This is the soda straw room. The ceiling is covered with thousands of hollow tubes. It was beautiful!

Check out the cool Battleship! There were several formations that resembled objects, but this was by far the coolest.

Look familiar?

We were going through some old pictures yesterday when we came across this one. Does it look like anyone you know?

This is a picture of Robert when he was about 7 years old.

Happy 4th of July!

Thunder Bug

Eric got a little bug house as a Sonic Kids Meal toy and has been wanting to try it out. A few nights ago, Robert noticed there were lots of lightning bugs out when he came home from work. He and Eric went on a mission to catch one and were successful. Eric kept forgetting what kind of bug it was and would call it a "thunder bug". Too cute! Anyway, here are pics of his successful bug hunting mission.

Abbie and Eric - the fabulous swimmers!

Here is a picture of Eric and Abbie after class one night this week. They are having a great time!

Swimming Lessons

Eric is taking his first swimming lessons this summer. He is having such a good time. Abbie is taking lessons with him. The pool is indoors, so we don't have to worry about the weather.

Great buddies!

We are so blessed to be surrounded by so many amazing people! Eric has some pretty fabulous friends. On his birthday we met Ms. Tammy, Nate, and Hannah for lunch at Chuck E Cheese. Eric and Nate had a great time racing the jet skis and riding the roller coaster. These guys are incredibly close and have such a great time together.
