4th of July Week
After returning from OKC Dean and I headed to Houston for a week with the fam. We spent our first night in Huntsville with Granny and Pop. Layne, Amanda, Morgan and Logan decided to drive up for dinner that same night. It was fun to be with them and Morgan even decided to have a sleepover at G & Ps with Dean and I. We had a great time keeping her up late working on puzzles.
On Tuesday we met up with my Mom and Emma Claire at the Woodlands mall. The kids enjoyed riding the merry-go-round, I on the other hand did not – man that thing makes you dizzy! I guess my equilibrium isn’t what it used to be. I was also fortunate enough to spend some quality time over dinner with my friend Jana. It was nice to get together and catch up on a few months of conversation.
We spent the rest of our week in Livingston at the lake spending time with family and enjoying the crazy chaos of it all. The weather was great, lots of sun and wonderful water. We also participated in the fantastic 4th activities in Texas Landing. It began with a poker run boat ride to the 190 marina. Amy and Jason decided to brave the waters with us in hopes of winning big money! Unfortunately our hands weren’t good enough to win the pot but we did enjoy the boat ride and conversation. The boat parade, car parade and fireworks were also tons of fun. I always look forward to the fun of the 4th at the lake. Hopefully this won’t be our last trip to the lake this summer but if so it was a great week! Until then!

What fun! That’s great that Jana could join you. I love that Dean was wearing his bib like a cape! Too funny!
