Weekend in Houston

The girls and I took a roadtrip to Houston for the weekend.  Lonnie, Parker, and Robby were all at the Masters and Carter was out of town so we had a girls weekend plus kids and dogs!

As soon as we got there we had a gender reveal for Ginny's baby...

The kids were Team Blue (Kate, Quinn, Reid and Vonn) vs Team Pink/Purple (Brynlee and Camryn)

 It's a GIRL!!!!

Kate and I went to Quinn's 8 am soccer game!

These 2 are a MESS!  Camryn is still in her PJ's and her crocs are on the wrong feet...always....

Who Knows???

We swam most of the day on Saturday...

 Camryn...

Nothing increases your prayer life like your kids doing tricks!!!

Quinn

 Reid!

Brynlee...

Popsicle break!

Brynlee and Kate with Vonn

CC and the grandkids

I took a few pictures of Vonn...

Breakfast!!!  All squeezed in at the bar!

Sunday swimming!

When we went to leave my tire light was on.  I had a nail in my back tire.  SOOOOOOO off to goodyear we went.  Csmryn fell in the parking lot and scraped her knee.  So she wasn't happy.

Kate was tired and sad we were leaving CC's and annoyed we had to stop to fix the tire...

Brynlee was also annoyed about the stop....

Nothing like having to fix a tire with 3 kids and a dog.  But we made it!

Bluebonnets

The Texas Bluebonnets are blooming!  So we went to check them out.  

In the midst of all the bluebonnets, they found a huge bunch of pink flowers!  

And a red poppy.  I love how the different colors really stand out to them.

 Kate...so pretty and getting so big!

Kate caught a butterfly/moth and let Camryn hold it!

 Brynlee found a pink flower of course!

Camryn has not been in the mood for pictures lately.  She is a 3 year old mess!

The best smile I could get out of her!

Kate found a butterfly and they chased it all over the field...

The bluebonnets were so pretty this year!!!

 Another butterfly!

Twirling!

Love spring in Texas!!!

The "L" word

This has been my nightmare since our kids were old enough to be in school. I never had it as a child but know so many families that have. Well, it finally hit us. Kate started complaining that her head itched last week. After 2-3 days I got a kit and checked her.  And I didn't find anything. Well on Thursday I saw one on her brush. Oh. My. Word. My stomach dropped. I checked the other girls and found some in Camryn's hair but none in Brynlee's. We spent the day getting checked and treated. Brynlee was the only one Lice free. Well, Parker is out of town...lucky guy!

So it happened. And we are dealing with it. And cleaning all the things. We are going to make it. Although at times today I wasn't sure. Nothing brings panic like bugs in your hair. And kids who like to tell everyone they see that they had bugs. 

Hopefully we are one and done for the "L" word. 

And maybe one day we will look back at this and laugh. But for now...bike helmets are in the freezer and tea tree oil is in our hair.
