Packing up the Lakehouse

 BB and Papa are selling the lakehouse at the end of this month and have to be out of the house by the end of this month, which means we headed down to start packing up the house and its 8 years of memories. Papa was diagnosed with lymphoma earlier this month so he and BB had to focus on his recovery. Our little family headed down Thursday night with a trailer of empty boxes to start packing. We focused on the living room and kitchen this weekend with plans to go back next weekend to finish up and move out by the 27th. The girls helped pack, but also took time to go swimming and Allison organized an impromptu tea party with the stuffed animals. We also managed to take a trip to Yao Fuzi for some delicious Chinese food and drinks. The girls each had their own order of soup dumplings and started practicing eating with chopsticks. 

Much Love,

Field Day!

 It's almost the end of another school year, which means Field Day! This was Allison's first field day and Abigail has always told her how Field Day is the best day of the school year. We decided to volunteer to help out with all the "stations" as a surprise to the kids. Due to COVID our opportunities to see them during the school day has been very limited. This was one of the only times parents have been allowed on premises and both girls were so excited to see us. We loved helping out!

Much Love,

Mother's Day Weekend

 This weekend we celebrated all the awesome mothers in our life. We kicked off Mother's Day with dinner at HCC with BB on Friday. Then dad and the girls surprised mom with bouquets of flowers. Saturday and Sunday morning daddy cooked mommy's favorite potato and egg tacos with mimosas and we dined al fresco. Daddy continued the gourmet treatment with one of mom's favorite dinners, seafood linguini. Sunday, the girls swam and we watched. There was no swimming for the adults! It was far too cold. Sunday evening BB came over for dinner and time with the girls. Mom thinks this was the best Mother's Day she's ever had and is so very lucky to have such a wonderful husband and daughters.

Much Love,

Mrs. Vela's Birthday & Teacher Appreciation Week

 This week was Mrs. Vela's birthday, not only is she Abby's teacher, but she's also a dear friend. It was also teacher appreciation week so we picked up coffee and cards for both Mrs. Vela and Allison's teacher Mrs. Blazic. These two teachers are awesome and we're so glad to that they were their teachers this year. If COVID taught us anything it taught us the value of a great teacher.

Much Love,

Baseball Game

 Aunt Paula and Rod invited us to the A&M vs. Arkansas baseball game this weekend in Fayetteville. The girls had never attended a baseball game and were excited to cheer on the Aggies. The Razorbacks are currently #1 in the country, but the Aggies, surprisingly, won the game. Of course, this made our girls super happy and we celebrated after by grabbing a Whataburger!

Much Love,

Cowboys Golf Tournament

Moises attended the Cowboys golf tournament this week with his friend, Joseph. At the tournament the two of them were paired with former linebacker Dat Nguyen, who was not only a former Cowboy player, but also part of the Aggie football team in the late 90's and is originally from Fort Smith. Moises says that Dat is one of the nicest, most positive people he's ever met. Moises & Joseph had a great time at the tournament and came away with some awesome memories.

Much Love,

Golf

The girls started on the PGA Jr. Golf team this past Tuesday. It's a summer league and they'll get to compete against other teams in the city. They really loved their first practice and can't wait to keep going. They're even trying to talk mom into learning how to play, which dad is all for. We'll see how it goes.

Much love,

Moises & Jennifer
