A wonderful week in Texas

Nate and I spent the 13-20 of May in Texas and it was so much fun! We stayed with Nate's grandma in Elgin, just outside of Austin. Nate's grandma and brother Ken both got to meet Joey. Joey and I also got to meet Nate's Uncle Mike and Aunt Elise and his cousins, and his Uncle Steve and Aunt Karilee and cousin Nicki. They all loved Joey, of course and Joey loved all the attention. We visited Georgtown and Round Rock where Nate lived as a kid and meet some of Nate's friends: Tommy Garcia and Sal Bertucci. We also spent an evening with my Cousin Alisha and her family. They had never met Nate and it's really been a long time since I've seen them. She has three Girls: Brinkley, Adyson, and Briley and Joey loved playing with them.

We Spent a day and Sea World. Nates brother came with us and we took turns going on rides and watching Joey. Joey was so good the whole time. We had to get use to the humidity and I got a little sunburned. We had a lot of fun. Our favorite was this turtle eating watermelon. It was really funny to watch him hack at it like he was attacking something.

We also spent sometime in San Antonio and loved it. We only had time to go to the Alamo and the River walk and would love to go back.


On Sunday, Nate and I were headed to Georgetown for church, but Nate's grandma's car tire was flat! So Nate changed it for the spare and then after church Nate's friend, Tommy, helped Nate patch the tire so we could drive to Alisha's house (near San Antonio).
