ROADTRIP!

After the Luig's came to visit us, Brandi and I set a date to go visit them in Ft. Worth. We were so excited when that weekend finally came! We left on Thursday afternoon, thinking that the boys could nap while we drove... WRONG!! Bowen slept about 1 hour and did ok for a while, but he SCREAMED the last 2 hours. It was not an enjoyable car ride. He did, however, fall asleep about 2 minutes before we arrived at their house. Of course. Once we got there, we all happily piled out of the car. Crockett was SO HAPPY to see Cade! They immediately started playing. You would have thought it was 10 in the morning, not at night, because they had SO much energy! The next morning, we had planned on getting ready for the zoo, but Brynn was running a fever. Brandi took Brynn to the dr and the rest of us went to eat at Fuzzy's and then headed to the zoo. Crockett had been waiting to go to the zoo for a long time! He was so very excited! We had a great time, even though it was so hot and humid. We saw ALL the animals, fed the birds and turtles, rode the merry-go-round, ate sno-cones, played on the playground, Bowen took a nap, and we rode the train. I would say it was a very successful trip to the zoo! It was SO much fun! That night we had a babysitter come stay with the kiddos and all the mommies and daddies went out. We all had a great time, but definitely can't stay out like we used to! :) 

On Saturday, Chris went with Josh to work. They had to leave at 5 a.m. Yuck! We all got ready and went to watch Cade play t-ball. He did such a great job! Crockett was excited to watch him, since his t-ball was starting the next Monday. After t-ball, we went home to rest/nap, eat lunch and wait for the daddies to get home. We went to the Locknane's house that evening for dinner. We had not seen them or the kids in way too long! It had seemed rainy all day, but that evening the weather was perfect. The kids played on the slip n slide, in the playhouse, sandbox and rode around on the Barbie gator. They dressed up and put shows on for us. It was so funny! They all played so well together. We had such a great time! I don't know why we don't all get together more often!?!
