Perot Museum - Our 2nd Home

We have a yearly membership to the Perot Museum, and frankly, I think it may have been the best entertainment purchase we've ever made for the boys.  Makes me think they would enjoy memberships to all the fun that Dallas has to offer over toys any day…wink, wink.

This truly is our 2nd home on the weekends.  The boys are {somewhat} free to run and play at will, and they love it!  Much more liberating than being cooped up at home on the weekends.

The children's play area is a replica of popular Dallas sites - the Farmer's Market is one of our favorite areas to play in.

 This just so happens to be mom and dad's (and every mom and dad's) least favorite exhibit in the children's play area.  Mommy has a good friend who is a director at the museum though, so there's a chance we can eventually DO something about this exhibit. Heehee!

Barrett's 1st Birthday Bash

It's hard to believe that Cousin Barrett is already ONE!   The Andersen Family had a blazing fun time at Barrett's 1st birthday bash!

 Birthday Boy, Barrett

Hunter's doning his dad's adorable cowboy boots (thank you, Grandma JoJo!).  Reid had a pair of dad's old cowboy boots on too, but Hunter was the only one who would leave them on for any length of time (aka. long enough for mom to get a photo).

 Jacob

Hunter spent most of his time happy as could be in the wagon.

 Apparently, this kid doesn't have enough juice in his life.

 Gotta.get.every.last.bit!

 Barrett's counting to make sure he got all his candles.

 "Hmmm, let's see…"

 "I think I'll just pick the whole thing up..."

 "…and shove it in!"

 "Yes, very effective, indeed!"

 Soon-to-be a big brother, Cooper

 Miles

 Grandpa Kim can chorale all 3 all by himself! 

 The sun in their eyes would lead you to believe that they weren't having fun, but they couldn't get enough of this little slide that was just their size! It's amazing that Grandma JoJo was able to get them to actually sit still for one moment while mommy snapped a quick picture.

 It's always a riot trying to get the kiddo group shot at a little person's birthday party.

 "Cheese" is just NOT gonna cut it for the WANTED poster.

That's more like it!

Outlaw Cousins - one BAD bunch!

World's Funniest Cartoon

Remember this gem of a video when Reid was approximately 1.5 years old? Apparently at 3.5 years, he still thinks it's pretty funny!
