....aint no place like Texas......

.......They say that all things are bigger and better in Texas......so it's no surprise that me and my girls showed up with a BANG.....car sickness, cleaning car seats more than once, 104.3 fevers, semi potty training at Mimi's house, we are making ourselves at home in a hurry....we are officially here and enjoying our family time.....the good Lord has blessed all of the cousins with health and happiness and it has been a sweet reunion.....


......we have colored......played with bowls, balls, & babies.....



........played with our pretend jewelry, rocked in chairs, read books......


.....and of course we have dressed up like the princesses that all of the girls are......


......and our prince of the bunch too.....


.......we have played on indoor playgrounds, determined to not let the grey sky and rain deter our quest for fun....... 



........it's been a time for catching up, telling stories and relishing in togetherness.......


.......a time for first time introductions of new cousins......



.......and it's just beginning.....the weekend hasn't even arrived yet....

........more rain in the forecast, but there isn't anything stopping this group from smiling, shining.....staying in our happy, chaotic place of togetherness.....

....our family....
