Weekend in Lake Jackson and a SLEEPOVER!!!













This weekend we went to Lake Jackson to visit the Schwertners and watch Meghan and Kate play basketball! We had such a fun time that Cooper wasn't ready to come home. After tears and begging from all three kids, it was decided that Cooper would get to stay for another night while mommy and daddy went home. (sniff, sniff) We are so happy that his 2nd ever sleepover was a success, and that he loves his cousins so much! In fact, he has been asking to go back every since. This mommy is having a very hard time with his new found independence!


On Friday, we got there in time to celebrate Meghan making the reading team at her school! Cooper was more than happy to join in the celebration with a trip to Cherry Berry for some ice cream!


Then we headed to watch a little of Mehan's basketball practice. Kate and Cooper also got to spend some time playing at the local park.


After eating Scott's famous pork fajitas, we made smores! Cooper loved the fire, but chose to eat his smores in sections. (marshmallows, then crackers, no chocolate) What a fun evening!


Roasting marshmallows!

The next day we headed to the girl's basketball games. We were so impressed with their hard work! Great job girls!

Next, we headed over to the Lake Jackson Sea Center! Cooper loved seeing all the fish.

Fun at the touch tank


Checking out the big fish (Cooper asked if that's the one Jonah was in. HA!)

Getting a little biology lesson... there was a racoon having babies on the island. Let's just say things didn't end well. :(



Meghan and Kate did such a great job taking care of Cooper during his sleepover. They even made this chart so that they remembered to take him to the potty! :) Thanks girls!


Thanks for a great weekend Schwertners!
