TOT Performance and Weekend Guests

This past school year the girls have been participating in TOTs at their preschool. TOT stands for Teams of Tomorrow. They teach sports skills and some academic skills. Ava and Macy participated in the program that focused on basketball skills. I posted about their halftime performance at the Texas Legends game here. Last weekend they had their big, end of the year performance where they showed off all of the skills they have learned. We were very proud of their b-ball skills. Macy is quite the little dribbler. At the end, each child got a trophy and then of course we had to go out for celebratory ice cream!

The girls with their TOT teacher, Mrs. Kristen. The girls LOVED her. They have liked all of the teachers and coaches they have ever had and haven't ever complained about anyone but I think Mrs. Kristen might be their favorite of all time. She was pretty special to them.

Mouthfuls of ice cream and gummy bears.



Later that day, Uncle Craig and Aunt Jax came to visit. They went to the Coldplay concert in Dallas Saturday night so they stayed at our house. We were able to visit with them Sat. afternoon and then went to brunch with them on Sunday morning. It was a quick trip for them but we actually got to visit which was nice. Usually, when they come here or when we are in Fayetteville, everyone is running in different directions so we don't get to see them as much as we would like. It was nice to get to catch up with them for a bit. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures to prove that they were actually here, but I promise they were.  


This past weekend our dear friends, The Ramers, came to visit. Greg and Ben have been friends since high school (maybe even before?). We hung out with them quite a bit when we lived in Little Rock, so we miss getting to see them and love when they come to visit. They have a precious little boy, Myles, who is just about 8 months older than Ava and Macy. He is so sweet and well behaved. They came into town on Friday so we started the weekend by heading to a Rangers game. Myles loves baseball and is a good little t-ball player so he was very excited to go to his first major league game. Ava and Macy were excited about the nachos and hot dogs. : ) We met the Nalleys there too and had a great time. We stayed for the entire game (a first for us) and everyone did great! Saturday, the guys got up super early to play golf so Kelley and I took the kiddos to Ikea and Chic-Fil-A. When the guys got home, we all hit the pool for a few hours. And then, to top it all off, we had a babysitter come keep the kiddos that night so the adults could have a kid free dinner! We went to The Capital Grille which was delicious and definitely adult only food. No kids menu there! What a perfect weekend! We had a great time and hope they come back to visit soon.
