We left Kentucky and drove two days to Houston. Whew! That is a LONG drive. And knowing we'd have to do it again in a week didn't make it any easier!
 |
| Enjoying the Kentucky "traffic." Something tells me we're not in Northern Virginia any more! |
 |
| I also liked this random castle in the middle of Kentucky-- wha? |
But we got there without any major problems and were able to see Maya's baptism, so that was exciting! She looked like a beautiful princess in the dress her mom had made for her and we were excited for Bentley to see a baptism, since he'll be turning eight next week (!!!).
 |
| All ready for the big event! |
Most of the rest of the time the cousins all played together while the men tiled Jason and Jeni's kitchen and dining room (which will be its own post, mostly a bunch of pictures of the floor). So here are what the kids got up to, in no particular order, because I'm pulling pictures off both my phone and Craig's:
 |
| Jumping before it got too hot |
 |
| Ryder and Eli playing together, in the only way 3-year-olds can! |
 |
| Snuggle time. But man, selfies do bad things to my chin(s) |
 |
| This is how we eat when Grandma's getting the groceries! |
 |
| Going to see Rio 2, and enjoying the air conditioning. I LOVE that Bentley was willing to hold Eli's hand! |
 |
| Grandpa holding a very worn out Colton at the water park |
 |
| Choosing cupcakes to celebrate Jason's birthday |
|
 |
| Grandma keeps Ryder and Eli entertained |
 |
| Grandpa takes a break from tiling to play with his grandsons |
 |
| Playing a little Rock Band |
 |
| Colton gets into the whole rock band thing... |
 |
| My sons are all sitting on me! |
 |
| We hit Five Guys for dinner one night, and Kendra and Maya got their own table-- it made me laugh |
The time flew by, and before we knew it, it was time to hit the road again. We had a lovely time and I sure enjoyed pigging out on all the wonderful food and hanging out with all the grown-ups in the evening once the tiling was done for the day. But I will admit that I was starting to miss my bed. (Although much thanks are owed to Kamryn for giving up her bedroom for us-- if I'd had to sleep on an air mattress the entire trip, I might not have enjoyed myself nearly as much!) Time to face another two days of driving...!

Colton seems to really like those cheese puffs! You make a good "couch" for the boys!
What a fun week! My MIL buys those cheese puffs too!
I can't believe Bentley is almost 8. Where has that time flown by too?!
So fun!! I'm glad that everything went so well while they were with their TX cousins!!
