Weekend with the Madsen's in Tyler, Texas!

Some of our favorite friends left Dallas a couple months ago and moved out to Tyler, Texas. We took advantage of the long weekend and went for a visit! We had 5 kids age 5 months to 5 years under one roof. Justin practiced his swimming skills, Dave and Shad golfed, and Shannon and I managed to escape for a few beers.  Oh - AND we went to the circus. How could I forget the circus. It was a small little circus..they did have Tigers. Shannon thought the tiger-dude was also the motorcycle daredevil...it's likely everybody had two jobs at this circus ;)  Justin liked the tigers...and then proceeded to ask where they were the rest of the time. We left at intermission -the kiddos had their fill by then.

We're looking forward to visiting Tyler again! (And Shannon and I are really looking forward to October when we sneak away for a weekend to visit Connie in Iowa! - NO KIDS!)

At the circus!
The grocery store had a bar..and live music so our trip took a little while.

Molly and Justin - out looking for fish.




Swim practice...wearing him out before the drive home!

Two minutes down the road...
we had said we were going to get ice cream...he couldn't make it!
