Seriously, all this stuff for one night? (Minus the food storage starter kits, of course)
In the car. We took my parents' mini van so Trey watched Baby Einstein, ate and slept the entire way. It was great. However, sleeping wasn't great at the hotel that night though. I don't know how many times Trey woke up that night. We tried everything we could think of to lull him back to sleep. Finally, at around 3:30am he made it to our bed (something we had tried earlier while he was awake) and he slept until around 8:30am....finally.
On Saturday night we met up with Del's cousin Bill Ginos and family, Erin, Adam, and Logan. We left around 5:30pm to meet for dinner at Chuy's and there was a 1 hour wait and so we went next door to Salt Grass and there was a 1 1/2 hour wait! Sooo, Billy and Erin suggested Chili's because it's never crowded there. So, that's where we ended up! It's funny that we drive all the way to Austin (N. Austin) and end up at Chili's because you always hear about the great food in Austin...at least that's what my mom says. But I guess North of Austin there is a shortage of restaurants and Billy says they have to go around 4pm to get in to eat sometimes! Crazy! We had a lot of fun though! Afterwards we went to Billy and Erin's house and saw their garden and visited. The kids had fun playing. It was a lot of fun and so good to see them!!!
The 2nd cousins outside of Chili's. I just love their faces! Left to right: Trey, Logan and Adam.
On Sunday we attended Mary-Jo and Michael's ward (Mary-Jo is my 2nd cousin on my mom's side) for their baby Mae's baby blessing. Here is my mom with her cousin Shannon Ator holding baby Mae. She is the best baby and so pretty! Loves to be held by anybody! Afterwards we went to Mary Jo and Michael's and had burgers on the grill. It was so good to be there with family and visit. Del and I enjoyed petting their dogs out back too, Daisy and Morgan and their bunny.
This is the picture I tried taking of the cousins (mom and Shannon) each with their grandbabies...This is how it turned out...Trey just wanted to roll around on the floor, I think! :) Could you blame him after such a rough night's sleep?
Mary-Jo and Michael with Mary Jo's parents, Shannon and Fannie Mae, Fannie Mae's brother (to the left) and Fannie Mae's mother holding Mae. It's funny, they call Fannie Mae, Granny Fannie...
We stopped at the Hillsboro outlet mall and got some clothes for Trey at Carter's. Here he's wearing his Silly Monkey shirt. My dad got some socks (he likes to get them in Hillsboro) and Del and Trey got me a mother's day gift at Perfumania which was Lauren perfume!! :) Thanks Trey and Del! My mom bought some cooking pans too.
