Going to Clermont & The Rodeo

Two things we've done recently that I haven't uploaded on here yet. In January we went to Clermont to visit Dru's aunts, uncles & cousins, and his parents happened to be there too, so it was a nice chance to do a lot of visiting! We had a great time! The kids traveled well & were really good the whole trip, which was nice! I am really glad we took the time to make the trip...I love for Clermont to be fresh in their minds. Dru and I just love going down!

Cozy kiddos on the trip down. We left when Dru got off of work that Thursday & arrived just before midnight, so they slept the whole way down! They woke up when we got there and we let them stay awake until 1:30 to get tired again!

Dru & Cope took several paddle boat rides around the lake. Cope also got himself a haircut while we were down there.

Simms reminds me so much of myself in this pic...sitting back in a chair by the lake!

Cope had so much fun playing with his cousin Brax. He loves getting the chance to play with other boys! Doesn't happen much!

Simms playing on Dru's grandfather, Pah's, old organ. She loved it!

The sunsets in Dru's aunt & uncle's backyard are amazing. I love this one of our two precious angels playing in the water.

We had a great trip and hope to get back down very soon!

In early March we went to Montgomery/the lake for the weekend. The main reason was the rodeo but Dru also had some work he needed to do in the yard at the lake, so off we went!

We have gone to every rodeo since Simms was a baby! It is never an option with Dru to miss it!

Before Cope's first rodeo in 2010..time has flown by!

And look how big he is now..enjoying his cotton candy!

And my little girl..cannot believe how much she's changed! She loves the rodeo!

Cope & Papa watching the rodeo!

There were lots of bike races Saturday while Daddy & Gigi did tons of yardwork!

Cope enjoyed a much needed bubble bath Saturday before we headed back into town for dinner & another rodeo performance.

These two loved their new hats from Papa!
