Houston, We Have Landed!

Today I loaded up the kids and headed to Houston. Well, Sugar Land if you want to be exact. I braved the open road with the 3 kids and I must say, we did pretty well. Jack was a huge trooper as he had to constantly find binkies and sippy cups for Luke and Emma but he was great! Luke and Emma did awesome as well. I just kept saying it would take ALL day. Finally, about 5pm we pulled into their driveway after listening to the Moo Moo song for about the 100th time. I don't know who was more excited, the kids or me and Mandi! Our kids all were in the pool within about 5 minutes of being here and never looked back for me again. So much so, that Daniel even let Mandi and I sneak out for a little girl time. She drove me around and showed me the area (fabulous!) and we had some drinks and appetizers. It was nice to have a little break from the kids after the long journey.

We have missed the Herrolds in Tulsa but my kids are so excited to see them. Right now, there is a giant slumber party upstairs (except for poor Emma who was all too happy to climb into her pack and play). Who knows what tomorrow holds but I am sure it will be fun. A long drive yes, but I am confident this weekend will hold many memories for our kids.

More Later from Texas!

PS - This music will make many Sooner fans cringe, but it was fitting for our day! Boomer Sooner!
