Road Trip

We set out July 3rd on a big road trip!  We had a blast visiting friends and family.  Our first stop was Aggieland.  We had Freebirds for lunch and checked out the progress on Kyle Field.
It is looking good!  Whoop!
 The next stop was Montgomery!  We hadn't seen the Smith's new house.
 The girls were excited to see Anna and Jeanie.
 After a couple of hours with the Smith family, we were on to Spring.
 GiGi got out her washboard and played Little House on the Prairie with Caroline.
 She also had lots of little prairie figurines.  The girls enjoyed looking through them.

 Caroline was in heaven with a jar of cherries just for her!
 Abby got her game on with PawPaw.

 July 4th we headed to our final destination, Seabrook.  But first, we stopped to see Aunt Haley's new house in Katy.


 A Kiss Goodbye
 At last, we arrived at the DeLeon's house in Seabrook!  Brent was in the corps with Stevan and we always enjoy getting together with his family.
 Their house and pool are gorgeous!

 
The girls adore Paige.



Milam's family was there also.  We were excited to meet baby Margaret.

Relaxing in the Shade

Ben is Milam's little boy on the left and Paige and Parker are Stevan's kids.  They all get along really well.
One day, we went to a fish market with Stevan to get shrimp.
 
Abby was not crazy about the smell, but finally went in to see the crabs.
We learned how to play Rummikub and it is our new favorite game.
It rained Friday, so we didn't go on the boat to see fireworks as planned, but we saw them from their balcony.  I forgot to get a picture, but it was easy and we had a perfect view.  Stevan took us on a boat ride Saturday morning.




 




The girls were excited to drive the boat.





These Aggie buddies had a great time looking at old pictures the last night.  It was a great trip!
