The days are flying by! We had a whirlwind weekend which included Steven and the girls taking an overnight trip to Houston to do a few errands (like pick up an SUV and half a beehive) and bring his dad back with us for a few days! So we have BopBop visiting and also had a different overnight guest last night. I'm exhausted but enjoying these gorgeous Texas days. The weather is beautiful.
I have loads of photos to upload and hopefully I'll get to that tomorrow or Wednesday before we head up for a long weekend in Houston. It's going to be like a half Spring Break, so I'm going to keep it simple!
