Home Again




We had a great trip to Houston. Grant was SO excited to see Uncle Keith! I don't know what was more exciting...seeing Uncle Keith or getting to watch movies in the car. :) Grant had no problems with riding in the car. I think he could have driven for days if we kept the movies coming. Trent had a little harder time. He doesn't know how to sit still for very long.

We had a very exciting arrival b/c it started pouring down rain about 15 min. before we got there. Keith got held up at work, so he had to find a way to get us into his apartment. Long story short...we were all pretty soaked by the time we got inside. Looking back, it was pretty funny, but at the time, it was crazy. Grant thought it was so funny that we were getting wet. He wanted to wear his hat so his head didn't get wet.

On Friday, we got to go to Keith's office and meet all of the kind people that gave blood and contributed to getting Grant his playground. Everyone was so friendly and made us feel very welcome. Although, I'm not sure how much work gets done in that office. ;) Thank you InsurMark!

One of Keith's friends came over with his little girl on Friday night. She turned 3 today, so she and Grant played well together. Grant really enjoyed his playdate and was sure to tell Daddy about it when he got home.

This morning we went to Brazos Bend State Park and hiked with the alligators. Some of the alligators were pretty close to us. I was a little jumpy, especially when Grant was walking on his own and not riding in the stroller. We actually tried to scare him and told him the alligators would eat him for a snack so that he would be careful. It was a lot of fun.

Then, we headed back home. The trip home was very successful and uneventful. It was a really fun trip away for a few days and Grant did great.
