Our "BIG" Texas Trip

We know we've been missing out on blogging lately, but here's a Texas sized post from our Texas trip to satisfy your blogger cravings. ;-)

Recently Julie's job blessed us with a kinda sorta vacation. Mommy was able to visit baby stores in the great nation of Texas, so Daddy and Katherine decided to tag a long and visit Oma and Opa! Hooray! We had a very productive and fun trip! Some of the highlights were creating a winter wonderland and floating space shuttles, what??

We certainly couldn't go to Texas without having some steak...

This is us all helping to make snowmen signs for Aunt Mary Beth and Casey's big day (they're getting married on December 1st)!

Aren't they cute??

This certainly was a sight to see... At least if it isn't going into space, it is going for a fancy boat ride! We happened to be driving by the shuttle whenever it was being transported to one of its new museum homes.

Katherine especially liked being spoiled by Opa! Of all the toys in the souvenir shop, Katherine went straight for her very own purse. 

She loved seeing all of the fish at the aquarium too!

She had kind of mixed feelings about the water fountain, but we certainly enjoyed being cooled off

The Texas Gals :-)

We went to the park at Kemah as well and as per usual, the slide was quite the hit!

Mommy and Daddy were especially thankful for some great babysitting from Oma and Opa. We got to enjoy several dinners together and sleep in almost every day! It was a fantastic trip, and it was certainly hard to leave.
