Trip to Conroe

A few weeks ago, we visited Conroe to see my family since we haven't seen them since....I don't know when!  Troy was already in Houston, so he took the van and I flew to Houston with the boys.  It was fine, an adventure, but fine.  Security on my own was the worst part, with the removal of all shoes and jackets and the folding of the stroller that no one wanted to ride in anyway.  We were actually a little worried we wouldn't make it all since the weather was horrible and all other flights that day, before and after, were cancelled!
We stayed at my grandparents house, which the boys always love.  Friday morning Troy got a surprise day off since the roads were icy.  It snowed at our house in San Antonio but none in Conroe; the boys were bummed but recovered with the promise of watching the Bubble Guppies on TV with Grandma.  Troy and I even got a mini "date" to Target all by ourselves.  Staying with the grandparents always lends itself to lots of time to visit with all the fam, including Mom and Don, Taylor and Jacob, and Aunt Cathy.  This visit, we even got to see Charlie and Jennifer, a rare treat!  We were also able to have breakfast with my dad; I'm glad the weather didn't prevent us getting to see him.
On Saturday, Gigi and Mr. Don planned a day for us at the Woodlands Children Museum. It was crazy crowded but the boys didn't seem to mind.  Jacob got to join us too.  Only 2 pictures since keeping up with all 4 of them was hard in the crowd.

We cut our trip a little short and travelled back to SA on Saturday night.  The boys just weren't sleeping well, and we realized we had a lot to do to prepare for our Super Bowl party (and the flu week that followed.)
