The Last Half

Sorry I didn't get around to posting more while we were still in Houston. We were so busy! The second half of our trip was as eventful if not more than the first half.

Thursday we took it easy in order to give the boys a little time to rest. We went to the mall and had lunch with Aunt Pammy. Later that night, the boys stayed with Nana so Mommy and Daddy could go out to dinner with Tasha and Aunt Pammy.

Friday we had a little more excitement. We had lunch with some friends and then went to Tasha's for a swim. It was Cade's first time to swim.

That's Cody's face in the Basketball Goal


Cade's first time in the pool


On Friday, we met up with Grandma Kathie (who had been out of town all week) and Uncle Clay for lunch. Later that night, the boys stayed with Nana again so Daddy and I could go out for a little bit. We made the trip downtown to hang out with Pam and Jason. It was really fun but the drive back at 2:00 in the morning was not.

Saturday was another day of hanging out and just enjoying everyone. We were getting ready for our fishing trip to Texas City on Sunday. We got up early on Sunday and headed over to Grandpa Buck, Grandma Kathie and Uncle Clay's house. We got a late start but we eventually made it there.

Just like Daddy! T.J. and Cody before we left

We didn't catch much. I caught a fish so small it shouldn't even be considered a fish and T.J. caught a crab. We were the only ones who caught anything but we had such a great time. At the end of the day, we went home with nothing but we got some great memories.

Cody eating ice cream covered in dirt and mud! He loved it.


Aunt Chandler wasn't so smart and didn't put any sunscreen on while we were fishing so she ended up a little red. Cade stayed with Tasha all day and had a blast! They went to the dog park, swimming and got to take naps together.

Monday was our last day there. T.J. picked Ty up from the airport and we got to hear all about his exciting trip to Disney World (pictures to follow when I get them from Grandma Sandy). We ended up going to Market Street that afternoon with Aunt Pammy and the triplets. (Aunt Pammy's sister was sick so we helped her by entertaining the babies). The boys had so much fun with them playing in the water.

Ty helping by pulling the train. Notice Cody helping them cross the street.

Cody, Lauren, and Lathan. Logan wasn't feeling well so he wasn't up much for playing.


That night, we celebrated Ty's birthday at Grandpa Buck's and Grandma Kathie's house. Ty never thought he would get so many birthday parties!

That was the end of our great trip. We woke up Tuesday morning and headed back to Oklahoma. When we woke up on Wednesday morning, both the boys were sick with their allergies again and both ended up coming down with a stomach virus that afternoon. Welcome back to reality! I wish we were still in Texas!
