Rebekah's First Field Trip

We took a field trip to ride the train and play at Brackenridge Park. It was Rebekah's first big trip out. She's still so tiny in her car seat!

Fire Hoses & Faces

We went on a tour of our local firehouse today with my MOMS Group. Heather, Chris & the kids came along as well. We had lots of fun learning about fire safety and when to use 911.

Here are the kids with Fireman Eddie.

Here is Joshua with Fireman Eddie.

Rachel is smiling as usual.

Ryder is....well I'm not sure what he's doing...

Such a happy girl.

The kids listening to Fireman Eddie talk....well Heather was listening.

Joshua was so excited to sit inside the Fire Engine.

Watching how they attach a hose to the engine to pump water.

Rachel trying to wink at the firemen.

Tyler got to shoot the fire hose! It really made his day.

See I was really there too.

The whole group in front of the Fire Engine. Rachel isn't too sure about Fireman Eddie, even though his mannerisms reminded us of Dad.

That was our first field trip to a fire station. We really enjoyed it and can't wait to go again in the future!

Learning is Fun!

My sister and I took our kids back to The Witte Museum for some fun and learning.

Here is Rachel playing in the water.

Check out the red highlights in her hair!

Museum Fun.....For FREE!

I love taking the kids out to visit places and discovered that the Witte Museum is free on Tuesdays from 3pm to 8pm. Needless to say we will be making many more trips to The Witte in the future!

In the HEB Treehouse, they have a light-up dance floor where you chase the lights and stomp on them. The kids LOVED it!

There's all kinds of things to learn about at the museum. Joshua made a light bulb turn on just by spinning the wheel!

Rachel played with Lincoln Logs and ran around with Joshua.

It was a rainy day, but it was a good day. They really had a lot of fun and we can't wait to return.
