Beach baby!

Well, a lot has been going on around the Paschal household lately! A few weeks ago we took Jayda to Galveston for the first time. She loved the beach and especially liked when the water would come up over her feet. She also liked walking on the beach and the feel of the sand. We went to eat at the Rainforest Cafe in Galveston and that was really nice. The food was great and Jayda loved when the monkeys came on and sang and danced. We'll definitely be going back there! Last week we also went and visited some of my aunts and cousins at my Aunt Cheryl's house. We took all the babies swimming and they had a ton of fun. It was so fun getting to hang out with them and for Jayda to be able to play with her cousins. Then, this past Monday Jayda and I got in a car accident. It was just a fender bender type thing, but it really freaked me out especially since Jayda was in the car with me. Thankfully her car seat worked really well and we were both fine besides me having some whiplash. Now I realize just how important those car seats are! On Tuesday night Jacob started off his softball season. Our neighborhood has a softball league and him, 2 of his brothers Justin and Klint, and our neighbor are all playing on the same team. They had a double header their first night out on Tuesday and then they played another game on Wednesday night. It was really funny watching Jacob and his brothers play together. They seem to be having a lot of fun and I think it's really good for them. I think that's about all for now, I'll try to post again soon!

Great Father's Day!

So, Jacob had his first Father's Day this weekend. It was so cute telling him Happy Father's Day for the first time yesterday and seeing him smile from ear to ear. He had that twinkle in his eyes that just showed how proud he was to be miss Jayda's daddy. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful and caring husband who is also an amazing daddy. I don't think anything in the world could make him happier than that little girl.

Our little family on Father's Day. No, Jayda is not picking her nose, she just thinks it's funny to do that and say ma-ma at the same time! How is that fair?!)

Big smile!

Now, for the rest of our Father's Day weekend. Sunday afternoon we headed over to Jacob's parents house for his dad's Father's Day celebration. All of Jacob's brothers and thier wives/ girlfriends came over (minus Karen and the kids since their on a Disney cruise (and I'm so jealous because I reallllly want to go on a Disney cruise), we missed you guys!) Suzie made some delicious king ranch chicken and then we played rock band the rest of the day. Everyone just seems to love that game. One of my nephews brought some of his friends so they were really getting into it. Even Papa Paschal sang for one of the songs! After we finished rock band we played some mexican train and by the time we finished that it was almost midnight! Needless to say we had a great weekend. I hope you all had a wonderful Father's Day as well!

The usual suspects.


Jayda dancing to rock band and Pawpaw laughing at her. She was really dancing and she would even sing a long. It was hilarious!

Pics of the house!

Here are some quick pictures I took of the house today. It is all starting to come together and look really nice. We still have some boxes to unpack and small things to do around here, but for the most part everything is going really well. Enjoy the pics!

We're all moved in!

Well, we finally got all moved in to our new house. We've already unpacked most of our things and just have a couple of rooms left. Thankfully my mom was able to stay with us for the first several days and helped us unpack a ton of stuff! We are all loving our new house and can't wait for everyone to come and visit us. Last night we had Jacob's brothers and our neighbors over for fajitas and played rockband. That game is so much fun! I'll be taking some pictures soon of the house and posting them. Take care!
