Number 9!!!!

I think I'm still in denial, but Hudson turned NINE on August 13th!!  His birthday fell on a Saturday this year, and he wanted a completely different kind of birthday than in years past.  It could not have been more fun!!  We all had a great day celebrating Hudson in his last year as a single digit!
Here's the birthday boy before heading out to pick up his friends.


 He is VERY into music these days, so he got an iPod Nano...he was beyond excited!
 After breakfast and opening gifts, we picked up 7 of his friends and headed to Main Event for a few games and laser tag!







 The whole gang!

 After Main Event, we went to Studio Movie grill to see Pete's Dragon and have lunch.
 After the movie, we went to Braum's for ice cream before taking all of the boys home.  They all had a blast and Kelly and I were beat!  Ha! That night, he requested his favorite meal...steak, baked potatoes, Caesar salad, and rolls.  
 Holden had already eaten dinner by the time we finally got everything ready, but he was happy to have a few bites of steak before bed!
 Instead of a cake, Hudson asked Noni to make him her famous cherry pie for dessert.  Yummy!


We had an awesome day celebrating our 9 year old!!!  Love him more than he'll ever know!!

San Antonio 2016

We went to San Antonio on June 25th for a few days and had an awesome time!  We enjoyed eating at our favorite restaurants, spending one day at Sea World, one day at Acquatica, and going to the Riverwalk!


 The only picture I got at Sea World...chasing after Holden is not for the faint of heart!  :)

 Ice cream after dinner on the Riverwalk...yummy!

Destin 2016

We went to Destin the week of June 4th this year and had a blast as always.  Holden absolutely loved the ocean...could.not.get.enough!  Hudson and Daddy went on several fishing trips and Hudson fell in love with it!  I only got a few pictures this year because Holden is always on the go, but here are a few.


 









Ahh...my happy place!

Last Day of 2nd Grade!

I'm not sure where the year went, but Hudson's last day of 2nd grade was June 2nd.  He had an amazing year with an amazing teacher.  How is my boy growing up so fast??? Here he is before heading off to school.


 He received an award for making A honor roll all year.  We are SO proud of him and how hard he works!!!

Last Soccer Game

Hudson's last soccer game of the season was May 21st.  The boys had an awesome season...they beat every team in their age division!  Woo hoo!! Here's a few shots of my soccer loving boy!
 It sure is fun having Dad as the main coach!





Go MONSTERS!!
