Summer

Hi all!
The Eyes have had a busy summer, despite no official vacation this year! Sorry I haven't posted sooner, but we are short staffed at work and I am pretty much catatonic after dinner! LOL The kids went and stayed with my parents for 6 weeks the beginning of the year. Nathan and I took advantage of the time off and went for a weekend to visit Amy and Chris in San Antonio. We spent that Saturday down at the wax museum, the Ripley's museum, a haunted house, a 3-D ride, and the Guiness World Record museum. It was really fun to be goofy and act like kids! I think I might have actually turned the haunted house into a comedy, since I basically screamed from the moment the door closed until we walked out! Whether it was scary or not! LOL I don't take suspense very well, just ask Amy and Chris! LOL


Just a couple of weeks after that my nephew Tobin was born. I had the great joy of seeing him 3 weekends in a row! I love that sweet baby! He is such a doll!
All the Mapp kids got together the weekend of July 4th. Nathan and Crystal were in from Missouri, so we all invaded Mom and Dad's house and loafed around for a weekend. We were hoping to spend the weekend in the pool, but rain from Hurricane Alex drenched those plans! We finally were able to get the kids in for a bit Saturday, in the drizzle. We had fun playing poker and watching movies on the big screen provided by Nate and Chris. There are too many pics to choose from for that weekend! There are many more on Facebook.




Last weekend we went over to Pearland to help celebrate Kristy (Seth's wife) birthday. Seth and her friend, Dana, decided to throw a joint b-day party for Kristy and Eric, Dans's husband. They threw a kids-themed party with princesses and dinosaurs, complete with a giant, inflatable slip-n-slide. Boy was that fun!! We were acting like a bunch of kids on that thing! What was really pathetic was waking up sore the next day....FROM A SLIP-N-SLIDE!! LOL We ARE getting old!! LOL


All right peeps! Go check out my Facebook page for many more photos of family fun. We have another big event coming up at the end of the month- the Johnson family reunion!
