The Lego Duplos

Jake got a 200-piece box of Lego Duplos for Christmas. Then played with them EVERY DAY for about four months. He's recently found something new he plays more, but man we played a lot of Duplos. We still play with them when I'm tired of the other thing. So here are some pictures of our creations over the past many months...


Jake. 

ALL of the pieces end-to-end.

Ramp for the cars.

Time Tunnel for the Dinosaur Train.

A building with all the pieces.

We love to make "tall towers". This one has all the pieces in it.

A train.
Trees, a pond, some bridges, and a building.

More tall towers.

He can reach shockingly high.


I was very proud of this helicopter that I made. (Me, not Jake)





The craziest thing we've made with all the pieces.

This Place is FUN!

Back one time. When it was cold. There's this preschool play place here that I took D to a couple of time when I was his nanny. It's cute and all, but I've secretly been boycotting them because they charge admission for the parents. Boo! But there was a groupon/living social/something for the place for buy one get one free, so I got it and got in free! Here's a bunch of pictures of the fun:


He is NOT a fan of dirty hands.

Our favorite was this wicked cool air tube system. You cram pom-poms or pieces of cloth into them and they fly through the tubes and pop back out the top. So fun!




We'll go back next time I get in free.

Jenna and Me

Ok. The blog is coming back. For real. I have like 8 posts already uploaded. So get ready. Four months of events are about to come at you like a whirlwind.
Also, forgive that ridiculously small header up top. I'm working on it. 
P.S. Blogger has TOTALLY changed their format since I've been gone, so give me a break on the appearance of posts until I understand it.















So Jenna. She's the greatest. We met in college when we randomly had 3 classes together in a row at A&M our Freshman year. This was us Junior year when we got our Aggie Rings. (We just had our Ten Year Aggie Ringiversary!)
(I can't get this picture to center.)

 This was the last time we had seen each other. 
It was four years ago. 
She only had two kids.
I had zero.




 
Over Christmas break though, we were both in the DFW area at the same time! Unbelievable. So Jake and I met her at her in-laws' house for a gather of the children. Yes, she has four precious adorable children now. Baby Karis was only about two weeks old, but they had come to town for the big kids to be in a wedding.



If we lived in the same town , Jake and Carlee would totally be boyfriend/girlfriend.



Stop looking at Kennedy! She's too old for you!

Sweet big sister.

And this was the first of many attempts to get a picture of us all.
Colby's my favorite in this picture.
Love you Jenna! Let's not let it be four years again!
