Memorial Day Weekend


This weekend we decided to be adventurous and take a road trip to see friends in Dallas. The last time with drove to San Antonio with Addison it was a nightmare...lots of screaming and crying! So I wasn't sure how 3+ hours in the car would go, but Addison was awesome. She watched videos, played with toys and kept us thoroughly entertained :) She was such a little trooper all weekend! We stayed with our friends Sarah and Nick Carlson in McKinney. We had never seen their new house and it was fun getting to hang out. We spent Saturday in downtown McKinney exploring the shops and eating some great food, then Sunday I got to see two of my old roommates Katrina and Meredith and their families. It was great getting together and catching up (as much as you can with kids running everywhere!) Thanks Sarah and Nick for hosting! 

  Ready for the Pool!


     Playing with Cousin Brynn

On Monday, Joey and I were back in Austin and had a great time as a family. We didn't do anything terribly exciting, but I think sometimes just being together and having quality time is what makes the day special. Late in the afternoon/early evening we went to Joey's sister and brother in law's house. The kids played in the pool in the backyard. It was the first time Addison had busted out the swimsuit and I think they all had a good time in the water...it was HOT! We grilled hamburgers and relaxed. We love having family so close! All in all a great weekend...but I am exhausted!
