Happy birthday Justin

Justin joined Club 35 over the weekend.  We started the birthday weekend off with a Rucker family dinner at one of his favorite BBQ places.  It was wonderful and a fun celebration!

Lukie and Daddy
 Pops entertaining Charlie with his drawings- Charlie loved it!
 Aunt Chrissy, baby Brooklyn, and Uncle Chase
 Gran Jan, Gigi, and Lukie
 Charlie was so proud! When I asked him what he wanted to get Daddy for his birthday he said a new water bottle for his bike rides.  We went to Target and he picked this out all by himself. He was so excited to give it to Daddy!
 He was also proud of the card he picked out too....he loved signing his name.  Such a big boy!


Singing happy birthday and blowing out the candles...happy birthday Daddy!

The next day the boys went to Nana and Papa's while we had a date night.  It was such a relaxing 24 hours and much needed! I don't have any pictures to share but THANK YOU Nana and Papa!! The boys had a blast!!

On Memorial Day, we went to Nana and Papa's to have Daddy's 2nd birthday party! Charlie was excited for celebration #2 and to see his cousin Miles!
Papa grilled ribs and chicken and Nana made some wonderful sides! It was yummy!
Lukie, Maw-Maw, and Erin
Cousins!
Nana and Papa and their grandkids...
 After dinner, it was time to open gifts.  Charlie loved to help!
 Happy birthday Daddy! We love you!

Main Street Days

Over the weekend, we headed out to Grapevine for Main Street Days.  This was our third year to go and it is one of my favorite things we do as a family! The boys are both at great ages this year and we had a blast!! 
Charlie was SO excited!! Cheese! 
Our sweet boys!!!
Once we got there, the first thing Charlie wanted to see was the train!
He even rang the bell!!

After the train, we explored for a bit.  The street was lined with vendors selling lots of crafts and good food!  I had to stop and get this cute pic of the boys!
We then headed to the Carnival and Midway section- the boys favorite part of Main Street Days!

Lukie wasn't quite sure about riding the rides....
...then we found something just his size! He was so proud of riding the choo choo train all by himself.  Yay Lukie!

Daddy and the boys then rode the helicopter together!


Time for something fast! Charlie and I rode the dragon roller coaster.  Can't believe we have such a big boy now. Charlie was really brave to ride it.


Charlie quickly found the red a tractor for his second to last ride...

...and Lukie opted for one more spin on the trains.

And finally the last ride was the carousel....


Time to stop and grab a bite to eat.

Next up was the KidCave....
Charlie loved running through the shark a million times!!
Lukie found Thomas and was set for the afternoon. :)

It was almost time to head home, but we had to get Mommy and Charlie's favorite- funnel cake!!
Lukie even enjoyed a few bites!
Such a fun afternoon with our family! Can't wait to head back next year!!
