Texas #1: Thank God for Family!
In case you hadn't heard, Jessica, Maranatha, and Silas were able to travel back to Texas for a 15-day visit. We had a great time... and though the food was great and it was so nice to be under that wide open sky, the sweetness of spending time with family trumped every other part of our trip! Here are some highlights:
Maranatha and Nana shopping together:
Dance party with Papa (watching an ELO video-- talk about old school!)
Silas and Maranatha after dinner with Uncle Mike & Jennifer:
Maranatha and Silas with cousins Max, Beaux, and Jaxon
(Beaux was so very enamored with Silas-- it was so cute to see!)
Maranatha and I got to go out to see the horses with Granpere:
Silas was so fascinated by the waterfall in Nana & Papa's pool:
And Silas is the first of our kids to not crack up at Papa Taylor... he just stared, trying to figure out this funny man making all kinds of silly faces:
We had a good time at out GrandBren & GranPere's "Flying Hat" Ranch:
Aunt Doc taught Maranatha how to do a Jack-in-the-Box:
Dad & I at dinner at Razzoo's (our favorite!)
Dinner with Aaron, Jill, Max, Beaux, Jaxon, Nana, Papa, and Grandpa Sweeney:
Silas learned pretty quick to clutch Nana's necklace to help him feel better!
We all had a great time with family and are glad we were able to make the trip!

Wow! What great pictures! We loved every moment of it! It was so neat to get to play with Mei Mei & Silas. It was incredible getting to swim together too! Getting to shop with my daughter and granddaughter and just "hang out" with them was so special! What fun!
Oh yeah, and I might add that Jessica and I were treated to the Cheesecake Factory for our birthdays, and Mei Mei learned real quick about "cheesecake"! She started saying "teatake" during their visit. It was very cute!
