Summer "Adventures" - Part 3

In continuation of the posts about our Summer "adventures" around Houston, here are pictures of our visit to a unique park in the Heights area - Donovan park. We have never been here before. This park is unique in that the playscape is made of wood. The detail in the wood was different and unique - it was pretty neat. The girls enjoyed their visit to this park.

After leaving the park on our way home, we came across a neat mural and I just had to get a picture of my girls in front of it. I LOVE this!

I have been following your blog and your girls are getting prettier and prettier. I pray that they will have a great life and know that they will. I love the pic you took in front of the graffiti. Where is that? I would like to take my kids.

About Us

Thomas and I were married in January 2007 in Houston, Texas. About 8 months later, we were excited to start a family. After a diagnosis of infertility due to PCOS and endometriosis, we were devastated. With the help of infertility treatments we were blessed with twin boys (Brian and Brendan), but unfortunately lost them at 18 weeks due to an incompetent cervix. Unwilling to give up on our dream to have a family, we tried again, but our second try resulted in an ectopic pregnancy. On our third try we were surprisingly expecting sextuplets. On August 4, 2009 at 22 weeks 6 days, we welcomed 4 girls and 2 boys - Haley, Braden, Dallin, Ashlyn, Rachel and Kaitlyn. Our sweet angels Braden, Dallin, Ashlyn and Kaitlyn passed away and returned to our loving Heavenly Father. We have been so blessed to have Haley and Rachel at home with us. They have been home from the NICU since February 2010. They are doing well and growing. They are miracles! We love them and have been so blessed!

We have been so blessed to have added another miracle baby to our family. Kayla was born December 9, 2011. She was born at 36 weeks, 5 days. She is a precious miracle and we are so glad she joined our family.

Our last little miracle, Brandon Thomas joined our family on December 14, 2015. He was born at 36 weeks, 5 days. He was 9 pounds, 7 oz (big boy)! He has spina bifida, but he is doing well. He is such a happy boy!! We love our little boy and are so blessed to have him in our family.
