Trip to TX - yeehaw!

Josh signed up for a coaches clinic in Katy, TX (where his sister Jenni lives) and was originally going to go by himself.  Then his mom decided to go, then his dad...wait a sec!!  SO, after some (lots of) convincing we decided to go AND take the kids.  Glad we did.

Here are the kids on the way to the Panama City airport.  Colt is playing with Addie's toys and poor little Addie is just watching him in amazement:)

Addie waiting patiently in the lobby of the airport.  Our flight was delayed an hour.

Finally on the plane...Addie's first flight!  I think she is enjoying it.

Colt playing with the iPad...he's getting pretty good at the games we have.

Addie getting some attention from Nana and Pops.  A man behind us told me how "absolutely gorgeous" Addie was and it looks like I got her straight from the shelf...thanks:)!!

Colt loves looking out the plane window.  Both kids were SO good!!

Houston!

Colt's favorite thing to do at Jenni's.  There's Jenni herself (she'll probably be mad at me for putting this picture on here).  I got on the trampoline too....so weird!  Pops got on there also, the things you will do for a toddler.

On the way to the Rockets game!  Uh oh! - both kids knocked out!

Ok, this picture really doesn't go...haha.  This was earlier in the day.

First NBA game...she looks ready!

Colt was interested in the game for a few minutes.

And so was Addie:)

Then the next day we went to the Houston Zoo!  This was Colt at the first sighting on an animal (a monkey).

Addie was interested too...not really.  But she was an angel as usual.

Akunamatata

Yikes!!!  What's that!!??

A LION!  His face was hilarious!

Look how beautiful the trees are!

This monkey actually came up to us and wanted to touch/play.  He kissed the glass a couple of times at some of the on-lookers.  It was really neat.

This ostrich actually laid an egg before our very eyes.  When she was in the process, the ostrich was on the ground for quite some time, so Nana said "well get up ostrich!"  And when she did, wahh-la!  Egg!  Then she apologized:)

Haha - this is the first time I've noticed Colt's face...what is he doing??

OMG...melt my heart!

Oh...hello.

Family photo...COLT!

Just "monkeying around"

Friday we visited the Houston Children's Museum.  It was so cute and full of education and learning!  There was a face painting station, Colt refused, so I painted Addie's face:)

Telephone robot...completely made a old telephones.

We had a wonderful time, much more relaxing than I thought it would be with both kids.  Colt and Addie did great on the plane trip home.  We can't wait to go again.  Thanks Jenni for having all of us!!
