THE ROAD GOES ON FOREVER....

Well, we have had a fun week in Texas but we are leaving for California today.  Alex and I spent 2 nights with Grammy and Papa and Aunt Morgan and had lots of fun walking to the creek, petting the horses, and watching the fuddafoes (buffalo).  We spent our last three days with Paw-Paw and Grandma Susie.  We took Alex to the zoo on Thursday which was awesome and this morning he got to go flying with Paw-Paw.  We are so blessed to have lots of loving family to stay with and have fun with.  We are excited to get the next chapter going, though, and we miss daddy/Marc!  We will be in our new house on 1 June and our stuff will be delivered on 2 June.  We are looking forward to our first visitor too...Grammy is coming out on 2 June to help unpack and get everything situated.  We'll BLOG the move-in and new house next week! 

Alex swam almost everday.  By yesterday afternoon he could swim the length of the pool with his arms over a noodle, with no help from us!!  Quite impressive...video at the bottom, password is alex.

swim safety break...a quick snack!
I wanted to go to the farm to see the new road and we couldn't escape without Alex getting to ride in the Ranger and on the four wheelers.  Afterwards we headed over the Bryan to see big Paw-Paw Jim and Great Grandma Jo for lunch.
Zoo trip!!!
This baby elephant was my favorite...it was so cute.
Yummy pancake breakfast this morning!

Carrie,

We received your sweet note today!! Thank you so much. We think of you guys often and are glad to keep up with you on this blog. I started my own a couple of weeks ago just so I remember what the kids are doing at this sweet stage of life. Your family looks wonderful. And,oh my, Alex is ADORABLE. I bet he and Cuatro would have so much fun together. PLEASE let us know if you all are in Texas. We would love to see you. AND Joe's business partner is in Houston so he is there all the time. Thanks again for the note. Hope you are settled in California!!
