What can I say? Everything is bigger in Texas (even blog posts). Here's what we did the rest of the time we spent in Texas.
It was hot! We went to the pool.
We took down and set up a couple playscapes.
Watched the fireworks from the baseball game at the Walmart parking lot.
Played games.
Made a late night run to McDonald's for ice cream cones.
In our pajamas.
Played toys (this was the Littlest Pet Shop Epic Battle.) Hazel practiced some babysitting skills. Funny thing is that the mom of this baby was a 13 year old young woman when we first moved to Taylor. Now she's married and has a baby. Makes me feel a bit old.
Played more games. Hazel loved having her cousins around to play with 24/7.
And the kitties. No matter how hot it was outside, the kids were outside playing with the kitties. Almost makes me willing to agree to Hazel's pleas to allow her to get one. Almost.
More swimming. Because it was hot!
But I think that Kansas was hotter while we were gone (and now too.)
Jacob helped me power wash the side of my truck. While I was at the beach, a gallon of paint fell off a truck that was only a couple cars in front of us. I drove through a puddle of paint and ended up with white splatter all on the side. Ugh. Such a pain.
The kids were tired every day.
We spent a lot of time driving too. Made more than a couple stops at this truck stop. (60 gas pumps! and there were lines of cars waiting to use them too. But who can blame wanting to fill up where they sell gas 50 cents cheaper than everywhere else ($2.99/gall!)
We had a lot of fun in Texas with our friends and family.
