Summer Fun - Part 1 TX Trip

We had a crazy busy summer this year! (maybe that's why I never have time to blog...) It all started off with a trip to Texas in June. We travelled to Houston then went Nana and Paca's house in Corpus, where we explored the activities and spents HOURS and HOURS in the pool. Then, it was back to Houston where we stayed with Renee, my grandmother Helen, my parent's at the lake, and my cousin Stephanie. Brian was able to join us for about a week and a half of the trip... Here's some of the highlights!

We had a fun time at the aquarium taking in all the shows and checking out all the fishies!



While we were in Corpus, we took the kids onboard the USS Lexington. Maybe we have a future fightor pilot in our family?? Brian and I are looking forward to going back again when we can spend a little more time exploring the ship. Ryan loved the planes on deck but tired out pretty quickly.




Nana give Ry his first ice cream cone... yummy!
Ryan was so fun to watch on his 1st trip to the beach!

The kids and I got to stay with Aunt Renee for a few days. Emily enjoyed playing with her cousin Lydia, and Ryan enjoyed feeding his cousin Henry! ;)



We had the pleasure of attending Cheryl and Greg's wedding... somehow, all I have pictures of is the kids dancing... no bride or groom! It was a pretty ceremony at the RP gazebo and reception at the country club. Here's some of my favorites of the kids getting down on the dance floor.






Emily had a great time fishing with Poppy and we had a nice time hanging out at their lakehouse relaxing with the alligator (wish I had picture of that!)


We had lots of fun at Cousin Steph's house playing with all of Beth and Luke's fun toys! Hopefully we didn't do too much damage, there was some dry cleaning that had to be done after we left!
