San Antonio

After leaving the Houston snow storm we traveled to San Antonio. On Saturday morning Lonnie stayed at the hotel with the kids so I could go to the temple with our friends Hannah and Jill. The temple was beautiful and we had a wonderful time. I was so glad to be in a sacred place with wonderful friends.

After we meet up with Lonnie and the kids and went out for some Texas BBQ at Rudy's. The food was great and the company even better.

When Maya was given a taste test of the smoked turkey she kept saying "yumm, yumm, yumm". She didn't want to leave.


Thanks Hannah for letting us share your special day and for letting us steal your photos too. :)

snow

The day of our move Houston had a record snow storm. We had heard warnings about the storm but didn't think any of the snow would really stick. The snow started in the morning and by noon started sticking to the grass and trees. All over the neighborhood kids were building snowmen and throwing snowballs.

Our good friends Sam, Heather and Anna came over to help us finish off the last details of the move and bid us farewell. We were grateful for the help and the empanadas. Heather and I became first time mothers within two weeks of each other. We have enjoyed watching our babies turn into toddlers.


moving

In the last few weeks our house has gone from this to almost empty. We've sold most of our furniture, gotten rid of a lot of "stuff" and packed up the things we have decided we want to keep in storage.

The babies weren't too sure about having to eat breakfast on the floor.


All of our worldly possessions now fit into our truck and a U-haul trailer. We are off on our next adventures.
