Lots to Share

Reagan and I went on a whirlwind tour of the great state of Texas over the last 2 weeks. David was in Japan of all places for 13 days, and I decided that I would rather spend 15 hours total in the car... with an infant... by myself... than stay and home and miss Daddy. So we spent a few days with the fam in the HEB area and had some much needed time with friends and family. Unfortunately, I do not have those pics to show you. They are all on my mom's camera and I haven't gotten them from her. (David took our camera across the Pacific.) Actually, due to SOMEONE'S goof, I don't have several pics from my big trip because they were left in the card reader at SOMEONE'S house in Paris. But hey... that is a whole other blog. Literally. I'll have to split up my trip into multiple posts.

Trip Part One: Hurst.

Trip Part Two: Paris.
We left the HEB and drove to Paris to stay with Rachel, Clint and Roselyn. Kendra and Cassidee made the trip as well, so we had all the BFFs together.


Rachel posted a ginormous amount of pictures on her blog, so I will just have you head on over to her link on the right and check them out. Here are some of my favorites, but we took so many and they are SO CUTE! I'll let her do the work on this portion of the trip with the 30ish pics she posted. (Come right back here though to see more of our trip!) OK, Welcome back! I have to give a shout out to Dr. Clint for his work on my teeth! I kept telling him that I can't believe that I was letting a guy who once duct taped me to a tree work on my teeth, but y'all, he really is a real dentist! :) They are squeaky clean! For the record, no cavities. Kendra wasn't so lucky...

Trip Part Three: Longview.
Reagan and I made a pit stop in Longview to see Jaymie and Kory. Didn't get to make it to the hospital to see Kanyon, but I don't think I could go in anyways. We had a GREAT but short visit. I just was glad to get to hug her neck! These pics are on Gay's camera... and she says she doesn't know how to get them to me! Don't worry, I have Rachel on that. So those pics will be coming soon.

Trip Part Four: Caddo.

Our annual spring trip. The weather was gorgeous, and we had so much fun just doing lots of nothing. It was so entertaining to just watch the kids have such fun together. Hopefully one of these upcoming years we will have everyone there at once. But here are a few pictures from the weekend.

Addison wearing her moss wig. Isn't it beautiful? If you have never been to Caddo lake, this stuff is everywhere! Corbin, Katie, and Elizabeth doing a little fishing. I know it is hard to believe from this picture, but Katie is quite a character! :) Some of my favorite kids on the planet...
Amie and Brady. He is such a cutie!! Oh, and Amie, you are too! :)

Elizabeth, Katie, and Adley putting on their makeup. Elizabeth, Katie, and Adley putting on MY makeup. Actually, Elizabeth did my lips, Katie did my eyes, and Adley did my nails. Fabulous. Reagan just took it all in.
This was how Corbin spent the weekend.... being the chauffer for all the "ladies" on the 4-wheeler.
Sweet picture of Daddy with Adley.
Another sweet Granddaddy pic, this time with Reagan. She was getting a bite of something yummy...
It was SO fun for me to see all the kids and how sweet they were to Reagan. Elizabeth probably told me a hundred times that she "really liked my baby."

This was pretty much Reagan's entire weekend. She loved the playpen, and loved standing and looking out of it. The girls even got in there with her some! Wait... I thought I put that picture in here. Oh well...
LOVE this picture. This is MY Granddaddy, Reagan's GreatGranddaddy. This was their first time to meet each other, and it was love at first site. He is 89, and he is IN LOVE with his great grandkids.
Here are 4 generations. My GrannyJo's health isn't that great, so she stays in the RV. But Reagan went to visit her alot. They love each other!
This look on Reagan's face pretty much sums up how she felt after our long trip. She adjusted back to normal schedule pretty easily though. I was SO proud of how well she traveled!

Girl, do you realize how close we are to Caddo Lake? I wish we could have met Miss Reagan in person (no hard feelings, though), but the pictures sure turned out sweet. She has the sweetest little face. Hey, y'all take care!
