Road Trip

It's an interesting thing - blogging. I was talking to my sister Abby about my lack of blogging lately and I told her that I had a theory. My blogging patterns are indicative of how my life is going at the time. No blogging - no muy bueno. Lots of blogging - livin' like a rock star. Not to say that anything serious has been going on. It just means that laundry has piled up, the sink is clogged with rice (oops) and I am wearing nothing but a robe as we speak (it's 2:30 in the afternoon). Don't worry though, I am blogging! Hence the theory.  Anyway... Me and Ab took a crazy long road trip with our five kids to San Antone awhile back and I have yet to post pics. I don't know if you read my blog Ash, but I thought this picture was worth taking. So much that I made Abby find my camera, unbuckle, roll the window down and stick her head out while I slowed down so she could take it. Now that I see it on here, it's pretty small and unimpressive.

The weird huge dinosaur in the middle of nowhere.

We spent the night at a hotel in El Paso. The kids were like WILD animals that had been caged for days. While they were jumping back and forth between my bed and Ab's we bathed the babies and pinched their bottoms.

Abby made matching skirts for the girls. They were so surprised and loved sporting them at church.

We took a trip to Sea World (1st time for my kids). It was hot and humid but we had a great time.

Time to refuel!

Jaycie and Kennedi checkin' out the sharks

Lucas took his naps on the stroller's shade. Or in Kyle's arms. Worked out great!

They had the best Peter Piper I've ever seen. The big kids played on the bumper cars while the babies snacked on something green.

This was at the River Walk. I love how close they're sitting!

Thanks Kyle and Danielle for an amazing time! We love you!!!
