"Watts" of Fun!

Last week, Kevin's cousin's 13-year-old daughter, Brittany stayed with us to help take care of Jake. I met Brittany for the first time when she was 7 and the flower girl at our wedding. That day I thought, "this is exactly the type of daughter I hope to raise one day." My thoughts remain the same over five years later. Brittany is a sweet, helpful, caring young lady, and it was great to spend the week with her. She helped out a lot with Jake. Here she's feeding him green beans.Showing off green bean face...

Tuesday we went to the Rock'n River Aquatic Center in Round Rock. It's a great place for young kids; even Jake's age. Plus, there have a couple of slides and a small lazy river for bigger kids to enjoy. Here's Brittany and Jake...

Our family....

They have fountains all around. Jake loved playing in the water.

On Wednesday, Brittany, Jake and I went to South Congress to walk around. We ate at Home Slice Pizza, then enjoyed some sweet treats at a candy shop. Here are Brittany and Jake amazed by all the types of candy.Thursday, my mom and kids play group met at Brushy Creek Lake Park. The park has a water spray area, so it's a great place in the summer especially because it's FREE! Here are Jake and Brittany playing with the fountains.

Friday afternoon, we headed to San Antonio to spend the weekend with the entire Watts family. We had a great time playing games, hanging out, and enjoying their pool. Here are Ryan and Brittany with Jake...

Jake was living life like a king. He's chillin' on a float, soaking up the rays.

All the activity must have been a little too much for Jake because he woke up Saturday morning with a cold. Unfortunately, we ended our weekend a few hours early to get Jake back home, but it was still a great visit. Thanks, Rodney, Kelly, Ryan and Brittany. We had a great time!
