Hats

When I went into Nathan's room today, he was wearing this hat. Anna thought it was cool, so she went and put her hat on too. Funny kids! :)

Texas Trip

The Texas Flag - The only state flag that can fly as high as the U.S. flag because Texas was once it's own republic.

Houston Temple

Blue Bell, the best ice cream in the country!

C&J Barbecue - YUM!!!

Um, I'm not sure what to say about this one...

Fun group

What the...???

My awesome Texas flag birthday cake!

I'm turning 29, right? ;)

Frog Eye Salad, a birthday tradition

Last weekend my parents took all of us down to Texas for a visit. We had so much fun!! Since we grew up in Texas, we all have a special connection to the state. We toured downtown Houston, went to our old childhood neighborhood, ate real Texas barbecue and Blue Bell ice cream, and went to a Texas Aggie football game (see post below). When we got home on Monday we were completely exhausted, and it was totally worth it!!! :)

Texas Aggie Football

Fightin' Texas Aggie Band

The Group (It's a little dark, and I will repost when I fix it.)

On Saturday we went to a Texas A&M game against Texas Tech. Aggie Football games are fun because they have so many traditions! The Fightin' Texas Aggie Band is a military band, and they are unlike any marching band I have ever seen. They are awesome!! Oh, and we won the game 45-27! Whoop!!!

Halloween 2010

Over Halloween weekend we went to Texas to visit my sister and to go to a Texas A&M football game. On Friday night we took the kids to the Trunk or Treat at my sister's church. They ate pizza, played games, went on a hayride, and got tons of candy!
