Right after school got out we headed up to the lake to see Michael who is home from PNG (Papua New Guinea). He brought the boys a really cool bathing suit from Australia. They look like lifeguards!!
So cute!! Not to mention the fact that you get to see those cute little buns in these speedo style suits!! LOVE them. 
Next up was the boys birthday party. We spent the week getting ready for the party. We went all the way to Livingston to do some shopping at Wal-Mart. The boys got to ride in the cart with baby Ian.
The next day all our friends drove up from Houston to spend the day with us at the lake for the party!! 
Even though it had been HOT and SUNNY EVERY day for FOUR months, it decided to storm and rain on the day of our pool party!!! It should have been a clue that there were crazy waves the night before (see video below)
But, our G-Pa is awesome and heated the spa AND pool for us to swim. Since there was no thunder or lightning, we felt good about life again. All the kids had a great time swimming.
Since we were going to eat out on the grass, we had to adjust plans and eat under the carport!! All the kids were troopers!

All the guests left in the downpour around 3, and the clouds cleared up around 4. We had a beautiful, warm sunset around 7....of course.
On their ACTUAL 4th birthday a couple days later, we went for a tube ride. :)
Jeff with the boys.
Uncle Whitney and Aunt Lacey gave the boys some fishing poles for their bday. "Cars" fishing poles to be exact. 
They were so excited to have their very own poles. 
Fishing with Uncle Whit
Cool dudes.
Reed caught a FISH
And then ran away from it screaming when we pulled it out of the water. So brave.
His catch
