Rangers, Shopping, and Swimming

For the third year in a row, we had a 'family reunion' Crenshaw style at our house. We have made it a tradition to celebrate my Gran's birthday with a family trip to Dallas (aunts, cousins, etc.) and we always have a blast!

We started the weekend with a trip to the Ranger's game Thursday night. The Rangers won and we had a blast! Abbye particularly loved to eat some of her Momma's Lemon Chill. Once Amy decided to share, Abbye didn't want to give it back!
Kenna was very excited to get to see all of the fam and made the rounds sitting in everyone's laps. Here she is with Joey, my cousin-in-law.
She was also pretty excited to see the fireworks!! The Rangers hit several home runs throughout the evening and both Abbye and Kenna were very impressed with the fireworks. (I stole this pic off of Leslye's blog...check out her blog for more fun from the weekend.)It was free hat night at the ballpark so the girl cousins had to take a group shot with our hats...aren't we cute!

I thought this was a good picture of Charlie and Amy enjoying the game.



The rest of the weekend was spent with a little shopping, a little swimming, and a LOT of playing with Kenna and Abbye. One of the groups made a trip to IKEA and came back with a little igloo tent for the girls to play with. Kenna wasn't too sure about it to start with so most of the pictures are of Abbye inside. Kenna wanted to walk straight into and straight out without having to bend over or duck. It would make her really made when her head would hit the top of the door so she would just stay out. By the end of the weekend she had it figured out though. I think some of the adults enjoyed it more than the kids! :)





I love Miss K's grin in this picture (after she finally decided the tent was okay). They would just sit in the tent and read...they love looking at books!


We had a blast and can't wait for everyone to come back again!!
