We wanted to do something fun for spring break and Lori had just the solution... come camping with them in Houston! She made it easy since she packed all our camping gear and food, all we had to do was fly from phx (which ended up that we landed at 2 am and a broken stroller and slow rental car process later, we crashed at her house at 4 am!! I felt so young again!) We headed up after a slow morning letting the kids play in their amazing toy room. I just loved being outdoors! It wasn't too rugged, but still plenty dirty with a crawler around.
We played card games together.
The girls hiked around the lake.
Mariah was drawn to the chairs that tipped over, buckets of water, the fire and dirt. It was quite a feat to keep her alive and safe... I gave up on the clean part.
Megan had a birthday and we had the most amazing cake I have EVER had! Then the kids blew bubbles to their hearts content.
This cousin, Cameron is SO sweet to Mariah. She laughs SO much at him. She really loved him!
There was even a park with the old-school long slide and tall swings.
The laughs from this baby are SO fun. Her brother and cousins really know how to get her giggling! Almost to the point of not being able to breathe!
Mariah fell asleep in the open air at night and we moved her into the tent later, she fell right back asleep and only woke up once.

Hallie was up really early begging to wear her pretty pink dress (which I had not packed) We promised she could and she went back to sleep! Then in the morning she was devastated she had to wear pants again, but she had already worn pants yesterday!! camping was a huge sacrifice for that little girl!
Saying goodbye to cousins. SO happy we get to have family love! Thank you Lori and Jim for all you do to make our get-togethers fun and possible! We love our family!
