The Month of Jude

So it seems that 90% of the pictures from the month of May include Jude, so he will get his own post.

We invited the Heisinger's to Charlotte one weekend to go to Carowinds for Jude's birthday.

I think he was nervous about the rides at first, but he couldn't let Avery out do him and they both had a lot of fun on all the rides.

Carter was along for the ride as well...

 The whole gang!

Then the next weekend, Laura took the kids to Vass for Jude's other birthday party at the farm.  They rented a big waterslide that the kids (and adults) loved.  Carter ended up being the first one to climb it and go down it even before he had his bathing suit on.  The smile on his face in this picture says it all.

 Best cousins!

Laura said she had to drag them off of this thing because they kept running up and sliding down.

Avery was the only girl that Jude invited and was able to hang with the older boys the entire time.

Happy 9th birthday to Jude!

The next day it was time for some horsing around, so they headed over to see Vega and Bucky.  Carter checking out the bigger horses with Uncle Joe, then deciding that he wanted a closer look.

Of course Carter had to do all the stuff the big kids did like climb the hill and play in the dirt.
