More summer fun

Date with Dad.  Dinner at Maudie's and a hike up to see the 360 bridge.

Scarlett loves Rocky.

We spent a few days in Yoakum at Gigi's.

And we have been going to tennis camp at the club.  

Luke insisted on the wristbands when he picked out his racket.

Sleepover with Perry.

These boys are ready for tennis.

Luke's work trip

It is becoming a tradition for Dad to take us each on a work trip with him each summer.  This summer Luke's trip was to the Valley where they did a little work and a lot of play in South Padre.

Luke's first parasailing adventure.  He loved it!  

Room service!

Hotel beds make me sleepy.

Summer vacation! Silver Dollar City 2015

The day after school was out, we embarked on what is quickly becoming an annual road trip to Missouri.  This year, we decided to go kinda last minute, so it was just the four of us and Uncle John. We stayed a week and had a TON of fun!!
