Road Trip!

For Jackson's last tournament of the season, we had to hit the road.  There were three smiling faces as we loaded in the car and headed South on 45. 

League City, here we come!

 

About an hour into the trip, the newness had worn off, and this little girl was asking quite loudly to get, "OUT!"  She kept grabbing at the harness and trying to get the job done herself.  Thank goodness it was almost lunch time and there was a Dairy Queen in sight.  Nothing a few French fries and ice cream couldn't fix!

We dodged rush hour Houston traffic and finally arrived at out hotel that afternoon. 
These kids were so happy to be free!

Cami loved everything about the hotel--the elevators, waving to random people, our rooms and was especially happy to see that she could fit into this little nook.

 

 

A few hours later, we arrived at our friends' home on Galveston Bay.  It was awesome!!

It was two stories, with this amazing back porch.  We could see all the way across the bay. 
What a view!

It was so wonderful seeing Carol again.  She and I were college roommates at UT, but hadn't seen each other for a few years.  It was as if time hadn't passed at all...then we looked around and there were four children running around...so some things had definitely changed!

While Rob grilled fresh shrimp for us, the kids dined alfresco.  Not too shabby:)

Cameron took them to see the boat house...

and then he and my Cameron shared the sweetest hug.  Aww!!

Everyone was enjoying the greatness of this back porch. 
Could you not take the best nap in one of these?

After dinner it was time to head downstairs for some fun pool time.

I know three silly gooses who had a ball.

What a great way to end our day. 
Baseball mania started the next day.  Get your game face on!
