Lots of LoveWe all enjoyed all the time we got to spend with Honey and Big Daddy. They were so good to us! They loved on the girls so much. We enjoyed relaxing and just having fun. We got to eat at every restaurant we'd been missing...Pappasitos-twice, Luby's, On the Border, Outback, Chuy's, BJ's, Gringo's, Spring Creek Barbeque, Kolache Factory, Whataburger, Willie's... Plus some great crawfish, gumbo, and meatloaf!
It was all so yummy!!!
We also enjoyed every moment we spent with Taylor, Hollie, Justin, and their kiddos. Riley and Macy had a ball together. So did Brooks and Harper. It was cute!

















As I said, the girls loved to jump. Harper thought it was hilarious to take off running for the opposite side and then watch us start yelling and running. After my dad almost had a few heart attacks, he had a good idea...
Harper wasn't crazy about it.
However, we all enjoyed my dad's creative way to keep the girls swinging while sitting! This idea worked!


We spent a lot of time in the pool. Macy picked up right where she left off last summer-jumping in with no fear!

Last Christmas Macy loved to play with my parent's nativity scene. My mom got Macy a Baby Jesus, Mary, and Joseph of her own. She loved it!! Baby Jesus is rather small and Harper nearly choked on it. That just doesn't seem right.

The flight home with me & the girls was a success. I let them walk/run around the airport in hopes of getting some energy out (and warning people to not sit by us if they had a choice). The flight was completely full. I apologized before we took off to the man sitting next to us, but he claimed that nothing they would do would bother him. He was right. He took a nap and drank a cup of coffee. He had no idea how I had to wrestle Harper not to take off his glasses during his snooze. We were all happy to see Philip when we landed!!

I love the pics. Looks like a fun trip! I wish I could get a leash from my kitchen to Megan's swing. It is her new thing and big sister is going to high to want to get off and push her. Maybe I could run it through the window. ha.

You're so lucky that all the kids are right around the same age. Lots of fun times ahead for you all.

Looks like you all had a wonderful time. With a pool, a trampoline, a swingset, a sandbox/volleyball court, a ferret, and a music studio the Chitty house is like Disneyworld in Houston!
