Good Day Chap...The Thomas' Are In Town!

My Aunt, Uncle and Cousin were all passing through town after picking Sasha up from church camp.  I took them to eat on the Square in Highland Village which is so cute.
Mark and Yasmin

Brielle and her Mimi

It was so nice having them in town.  They are wanting to move away from Amarillo so I drove thme around some areas in hopes and prayer that they move close to me!!! None of my family wants to live in Amarillo....so somewhere in my heart of hearts I felt by us moving to a bigger better city we could all live close together again someday soon.  If we are all gonna move away from Amarillo we might as well move to the same place!
I want that more than anything!

Have I mentioned lately I am fed up with our living situation.  It would only be half as bad if we didn't have to share the place with my moms stuff that was already here, and if my dog didn't get fleas every other day!!! So disgusting!  I literally spend my days looking for houses and looking for fleas!
We just want a house sooo bad, but I'm not willing to settle either...I want what I want.

There's nowhere to put anything!!! AAHHH makes me so crazy!!!
 

Our sleeping situation. One big happy family all in the same room.
 

My clothes, Landon's clothes and my moms clothes....drives me nuts!

We have a contract on a house.......but it doesn't look good...the air conditioners are 18 years old, yes 18!!! We have asked them to replace them but pretty sure that's not gonna happen and we refuse to do it soooo back to the drawing board I'm sure.  We'll know something in the next couple of days.
The Gann family needs a vacation!!!!

Wonder Pets, Wonder Pets we're on our way!

I've got to write about Brielle's first obsession...some kids fall in love with Dora, some with sports and some with Wonder Pets.  That is Brielle's all time favorite show right now.  I had no idea what it was.  It all started when she was coming to work with me at the boutique I would put Netflix on and she'd always choose the one with the "duck".  I didn't really pay much attention...just hit play and went to work.  She started singing all these cute songs in the car one day that I had never heard before.  So I actually paid attention to the little "duck show" that made her so happy.  I found it on tv and tevo'd it for her.  I'm assuming it's been on for years cause it only comes on at 4 in the morning yikes, thank goodness for tevo.
  The show is the cutest thing I've ever seen, the animals look real and their voices are precious!

I looked online and found her a flyboat with her wonderpets at Walmart!
 This is the happiest kid in the world!

Trying really hard to figure out how to get them to stay on the flyboat.

Hugging her wonder pets

All smiles, can you see how happy they make her....nothing has kept her as busy and occupied as these toys.   She played with them for a week straight all day long before she kinda got tired of them........Kinda being the key word!

Of course at the end of every adventure Wonder Pets get celery.

The phone, the phone is ringing, the phone we'll be right there.  There's and animal in trouble!  There's an animal in trouble somewhere!
 

Wonder Pets Wonder pets we're on our way, to help a baby giraffe and save the day, we're not so big and we're not so tough but when we work together we've go the right stuff......goooo Wonder Pets yaaaay!
B will sing or hum these songs all day long!!!  

She saved a cat, a giraffe and and eskimo of course ha!

It's so sweet to see what your kids grow up to like, and this is only the beginning.  This show is perfect for her and it reminds me of her for some reason.   I just love it too,  I get tired of all the other children shows they get old real quick and so do their songs....but not the sweet Wonder Pets.   Brielle seems to take after me cause she tends to like animals and animal shows over princess shows.
 We'll see if that changes as she gets older.

I forgot to post about our firework adventure a couple of weeks ago.  Every Friday all summer long, Grapevine lake has a fireworks show over the water.  It would be a really romantic date, but we had a third wheel haha.
 
 

We are still loving all the things Dallas has to offer, we find something new every week!

Fathers Day 2012

Fathers Day weekend was quite low key.  We started off in our pj's for most the morning then we put together some paper airplanes B got in a kids meal a couple days before.

What a cute toy for a kids meal!

Landon was very serious in his airplane flying! 
 
 
 

 Landon caught me midway through my stand, I look like a complete goof lol!

Of course flying them off the ground wasn't good enough.  Need less to say I won every airplane competition we had that day....he hates it when I win!

We spent Fathers Day at the lake on Sunday.

Neely loves to bark at the waves.
 

Almost nothing in the world makes a woman's heart melt more than watching her husband with his daughter!

Safety comes first for this girl ha.

I couldn't ask for a better man to raise my daughter with.  He will be the reason she grows up to be a confident, strong, successful woman!  The relationship they have is what I wish every little girl had with their dads.  She is the apple of his eye and he is the love of her life!

On another note,
 I can't tell you how much it fills me with a glee that my dog loves the water and loves to swim!!!
 
 
 

Everybody gets a rubber ducky of their own.

Fetching her duck.
 

She was worn out!

Playing In The Rain

There isn't a shortage or rain around here, but we are loving every second of it and the humidity! 
It just feels so good to not be dry all the time! 

My mom got her this raincoat like 6 months ago, we can finally put it to use!
 
 
 

Breille has had her fair share of bumps and bruises but this was by far the worst.  She was crawling around on the floor and swung around and hit the door.  You'd have thought she fell off a roof or something. She's so good about letting us put ice on her owies!
I've never seen a bruise bump up as fast as this one, Landon literally picked her up and took her to the couch and she already had this huge bump. I think she hit a blood vessel or something for it to get that bad in a matter of seconds.  To our surprise after putting some ice on it, it looked much better, scared us though.
