TEXAS!!!

This year we made the trek to Texas for Spring Break...it only took us 2 days o driving to make it! :) We had a great time and did surprisingly well in the car for a total of about 40 hours round trip! We had some wonderful weather and got to check out the local beaches, an aquarium, a science museum and much more.

Aiden loved playing on the beach, we drove down to South Padre Island for one day and he did not want to leave! He could sit there all day playing with his shovel and bucket in the sand. It was a little windy but super sunny and hot!!!

We got to go fishing in the Gulf of Mexico on a big charter boat. Travis caught 3 sheephead fish and I caught two. It was super fun to catch the fish- we got them cleaned on the boat and took them to a local cafe to have them cooked up. They were delicious! We had some fried and some blackened, sooo good!

This is our day at Mustang Island beach, it was beautiful as well. All in all, we did a lot of relaxing and enjoying our time together. We came back very refreshed and are glad that the weather in Minnesota has been so wonderful!

Catch Up Blogger

Aiden turned 6 on January 5th- he got so many amazing things for Christmas and his birthday, I think he will have a new toy to play with every day for the next 6 months! Well- not exactly but it seems that way sometimes. :)



Family Christmas Pic- we did our best to get a shot of all of us together. Mom made an amazing dinner as usual, it was a great time!


All of the kids got new pj's for Christmas- they are growing up way too fast! Can't we slow that down a bit???
