Texas Trip

We missed the spring bluebonnets this year but we had some family fun in College Station this weekend. We saw Grandma Carol, Nicole and the 2 Uncle Brians. A big thank you to Nicole and Brian for hosting us at their place on Sunday night!



Brian made a visit and got lots of time playing EJ's favorite game, "pillow in the face." Thankfully, he was a willing participant.

Even though College Station is a small town, we found fun wherever we went. Here's EJ at his Nascar time trial (aka the mall).


The town of Bryan had a great Children's Museum with this darling train out front. EJ met some boys during his time there and had a great time playing.





Time with Eric was limited but they did catch some cuddle time on the porch in front of the hotel.

Spring in Lincoln

The Lincoln Zoo has a new exhibit: Penguins! EJ and I had a fun outing to the zoo seeing all of our old friends (the goats) and making new friends (the penguins). I noticed how much EJ has grown as his observations have really advanced since last year.







We had another fun train ride. EJ wanted to sit in the caboose this year!



I saw these "Husker" tulips and had to get some pictures. They were so beautiful.
We happened to be on our way to a baseball game so EJ matched the lovely colors.





EJ isn't as fearful of the players this year as he has been in past years. He likes playing catch with them and they like entertaining him. It's a nice combination.

Tux Time!

I took the guys to get fitted for their tuxes tonight for Andy & Kellie's wedding.
EJ was adorable as he did exactly what the fitter asked him to do. Anyone who knows a preschooler can appreciate how rarely that happens! Here's how it went down:







EJ was very excited when he heard he was going to match Uncle Andy.



Poor Daddy...



The shoe fits!
