First Day of School

All three kids started school today so we had to take a picture. The twins only go until 12 on Tues & Thurs and Cayden is trying to talk me into 12:30 so he doesn't have to take a nap- the worst part of school for him! Hopefully all went well on the kids first day and the school's first day to have a one year old class. Cooper seemed a bit concerned with why so many people she did not know were in her classroom last night at meet the teacher night. Cutter didn't seem to care much about anything! Cayden was just excited about his new Superman lunch box.

FAMILY VACATION 2006

Our "family vacation" this year was a two day trip to Sea World. Back in the spring we bought season passes and used them once! I guess due to chaos at home (three kids) and gas prices we never made it back. Tori wanted to go with Cayden some time so we all went. It was about 106 degrees in San Antonio on the day we decided to go. It was hot but not miserable. The park was the most empty I think I have ever seen it. It was great. I can also honestly say the kids were wonderful! It was a really fun day- so much fun that we took the kids back the next day to the water park. Except for Cayden being too short to go down any of the water slides, it was another great day. The kids loved the water. We did the kiddy water part, the wave pool, a smaller water slide, and floated in the river.
This is a family shot we got while at Sea World. In case you have not been there they have the Clydesdale horses because they are an Anheuser-Busch theme park. By looking at this picture you may think it was at the end of the day and we were all hot, exhausted and ready to go home but this was the first attraction we saw!!!
So, if you want to go to Sea World with the Meyer clan, let us know- we have passes!

CLOSE!!

Third time's a charm- I hope. This was from photo shoot #2. Those of you that know me well know that I am a bit of a perfectionist. (Those that live with me know this quality all too well.) I do like this picture but it is not the image that I envision hanging in my living room almost life size! It is a fun picture though so I thought I'd share it with all of you out there with too much time on your hands that happen to be reading this right now!

In the past year I have learned that being the mom of three kids is a lot of hard work but such a blessing. I have also learned that having three kids means we may not get a great family picture until one of them decides to get married! Until then I will continue trying and who knows- maybe we will get lucky.

okay, after sleeping on it and a foot swap (cayden's foot moved and was blurred) this one is growing on me. maybe it's the thought of getting everyone dressed again in the 100 degree weather that makes me like it more.

Here is a pic of Cayden on a recent family photo shoot effort. We woke up last Saturday morning and went to Salado to try and capture some images of our kids. We failed to get the "perfect" picture of all the kids but were able to get some pretty good ones. We are determined to try again soon. Until then I'll post some of our pretty good ones.

Looking at this pic it is hard to believe that Cayden is well on his way to 5 years old. How fast can time possibly travel? He is a great kid and it is amazing to watch him grow and learn.

More pics coming soon.
