Texas!

In May we went to TEXAS!!! We went on a WHIRLWIND trip. We left Thursday night drove ALL night, got there Friday morning and only stayed until early Monday morning when we had to leave again. We did however make the best of the time there! It was a while ago that we went that I can't even remember all that we got to do. There was lots of playing with cousins and staying up late talking. I did manage to remember to take some pictures. All of two. Why do I never remember while we're down there? Must be having too much fun! One of the fun things we got to do while we were down there is go ice skating!! None of our kids had been before. Emily was the first to try it, and she was very excited about it. Poor girl though, she just couldn't keep her feet under her, so Ryan had to hold all her wait and try to get her to keep her feet under her. They went around a few times, but she tired out pretty quickly and I think Ryan was pretty glad about that! We FINALLY convinced Kaitlyn to give it a try. She didn't even make it a 1/4 of the way around before she absolutely REFUSED to go any further and we turned around and took her back. Both girls happily played with grandma in the bleachers! I really wanted to get a picture of the girls ice skating, but I was too worried about helping them to pull out a camera. I did manage to get a picture of Ryan and he took one of me. I wanted proof that I ice skated 7 months pregnant! It was fun, but I took it supper careful to make sure I didn't fall and hurt the baby!




We had such a blast with both families. It was so hard to leave when it was time to go. But the best news, when we got home there were no catastrophes!! Our house was just as we left it. No flooding!!
