Past Weekend



Payne's baskeball season came to an end this past weekend. I think it is his favorite sport. I'll have to work with him on his form though:)

Payne had to miss this past weekend's game though as we had previously made plans to visit Buddy and Toya(Laura's dad and stepmom). Payne and Abby got to play with their cousins Little Buddy and Anna. They had a blast as Pepaw and Mimi's house is always fun.

Best line of the weekend...goes to Little Buddy(seven years old). His older sister Taylor came to pick up him and Anna to go home. The conversation went something like this...

Buddy: I don't want to ride home with mean ol' Taylor.
Chris: The Taylor I know is sweet, nice and awesome.
Buddy: You must be talking about Taylor Swift then.

Brotherly love is a funny thing!

Shreveport Mardi Gras



We went to the Krewe of Highland parade this past weekend and the kids had a blast. We went with some friends and their kids and our kids had so much fun grabbing beads and watching the floats. We have loads of beads if anyone needs them! We knew several people in the parade and they managed to toss us some of their best items so the kids racked up.





Payne and Abby are growing bigger everyday and get a long quite well. Despite the occassional argument, they really care about each other. I managed to catch Payne reading a story to Abby the other night before bed. It was quite cute(and Payne is reading so well these days).
