Vacation in Texas

We spent our vacation this year with my brother and sister-in-law in Texas. This is the first time since they moved there 6 years ago that we all made it down here as a family. The flight went well even though we were bumped at the last minute. Even though we were running around the airport trying to make it to our new plane in time, it was a blessing. We got a better flight with a direct flight into Dallas. The girls did great on the plane. Emma was so fascinated with everything being so small and flying through the clouds. Lily was more interested in the ice cubes in her drink. And Maggie just ate her cereal. All-in-all, they did so well. We were so proud of them. We had a really good time. Here are a few pictures showing you just that.


Lily loved being in the pool while we were there. It took her a few days to get used to the water, but after that, there was no stopping her. It was really nice because the pool was right across the street from my brother and sister-in-law's house. Only their specific subdivision can use that pool. So it wasn't crowded and it was very clean. We loved it and were in the pool every day that we were there.



Maggie was very fascinated with the pool. She could never make up her mind if she wanted to stay in or get out and play on the side. She had so much fun!












This is my nephew, Alex. He's 2 1/2 now and is such a boy. The girls had so much fun with him. He and Emma would play in his room for quite awhile playing with his train set. We will miss him so much when we leave.






















Marc with Emma and Lily!













These next few pictures were taken at a cement water park with a regular park attached. The kids had so much fun.


































My brother, Dan, and Alex. Don't they look so much alike?













This is my sister-in-law, Melissa and my niece, Kate. Isn't she so cute?!?!?!!!!!

























The Winters Family. Thank you so much for letting us stay with you. We had a great time. We love you all!!!
