Texas

Here a few pictures from our weekend in Texas. We flew out on Thursday the 7th. It started out a little stressful. I did not know how difficult it could be to travel with two little kids. I am sure that was the last plan trip for quite a while, especially now that we will have to start paying for Jack. Anyway, we arrived at the same time as my sister and her family. We were going to be spending the weekend with them in a guest house. It was so much fun because we got to spend some quality time together. The kids got to play a lot and there was a great big yard for Jack to run around in. He loved it.

The first night we met up with the family and went over to Erin's parents house for Texas BBQ. It was so good. I really enjoyed meeting Erin's family. They are super sweet and I know they are perfect for Alan.

Jack was very intrigued by Moriah. What a cutie.

At the house we were staying at we got to see horses, play on a playground, and even play shuffleboard in the barn. Friday and Saturday morning we just hung out at the house and let the kids play, sleep and relax.

Friday, Kristen and I were able to go to the bridesmaid luncheon. It was fun to get to know Erin's friends and to feel honored that Erin wanted us to be a part of her weekend. I am so excited to have a new sister. However Friday night we ended up with a crazy adventure. So, a little background. Before we left we discovered that both kids had an ear infection. Jack also had Brionciolitis (have no idea how to spell that). HE was on a breathing treatment the day before we left. We were really worried about traveling with the kids, but with much prayer, the flight was perfect and by the time we got to Texas Jack was doing great. The problem was by Friday afternoon Chloe had barely eaten and she was weezing. We were concerned because she is so young, so the only place to take her was the ER. They ran a few tests because they were concerned about RSV. Luckily that was ruled out and they determined that she was only congested. Now she is doing fabulously and she had healed completely. It was a little scary and Charlie missed the rehearsal, but by Saturday we had nothing to worry about.

Here is how we looked pretty much all weekend. Packed in, but truly thankful that we had a suburban to borrow.

Saturday was wonderful, the wedding was beautiful. I have pictures to come. We enjoyed a great weekend with Chris and Kristen. The times we have with them are few and far between but it makes those times much more special. There were many funny adventures and we will always be able to look back with laughter on our weekend together. Sunday morning we said our goodbyes till next time. Love you guys.
