Random pictures from the last month

Our friends Dave and Amy babysat Hannah while we looked for houses in the Mid-Cities on Saturday.
Our last picture with Daddy for 2 whole weeks!


Yep- random pictures.  But my life is feeling very random and very chaotic. I am headed home to Mississippi to pack up our house!  We have a contract on our house and plan (!) to be all packed in 2 weeks.  Then we will be officially homeless, but homeless in Texas.  I actually had to surrender my MS driver's license to get my Texas license last week. Very weird. Enjoy the pics!

P.S.  We have a new niece!  Piper Jane Gentry was born this morning in Denver.  We are so happy to have you in our family!

Our trip to Texas

Here was our first stop in Texas: Tyler. Mimi took us to my favorite place- Mercado's. Then we had some banana pudding- Mimi sure does love her grandson! We had a good sleep, went to WalMart, then ate at Taco Bueno (yum!).
We then drove to San Antonio. We checked-in to our hotel, then met our friends Jennie and Steve for dinner. We went to La Fogata and had a great meal. They had great outdoor seating and fun fountains. We then went on a tour of San Antonio and ate ice cream. Then off to the theater to see Star Trek.

Aaron went to his conference on Thursday, then we went out to Boerne, TX, to see the Smith and Cairn families. Here is a fun picture of them all together. We had a great dinner and wonderful fellowship together.

On Friday, Aaron was again at his conference and I went to Sea World with Jennie, Ana and Bennett. The above picture when we were waiting for the Shamu show- we even got splashed at the end! The water park was very fun and I only got a little sunburned on one shoulder.

That evening we (Aaron's conference group) were given a private tour of the Alamo. It was quite impressive, even if a little warm.
After our tour, we met the San Antonio Gentrys for dinner. We walked down to the river and had some great bar-b-que. Here we are: Sally, Leslie Marshall "Marsh" Gentry, Leslie Nicole Gentry, and Aaron. I had only met them a few times, but it was a great chance to fellowship and learn about each other.
On Saturday, Aaron wasn't feeling too good but went onto the final conference meetings. We were then off to Houston to the Brack's. We were happy to see, not only Collin and Amanda and the kids, but also David and Betty! There was a great Italian meal and pictures of the Brack's trip to Europe. Aaron felt terrible on Sunday morning and had a fever of 102. Amanda thought he might have the flu- swine flu! But the test turned out negative and so we were off for home.
I had to drive all the way home from Houston. This was not an easy task because I usually go to sleep as soon as I get in the car! But we made is home safe and sound after lots of stops to keep me awake. We had a great trip but are glad to be home. I will update you on our July 4th celebration later.

Visiting far away friends

Here are a few pictures from our spring break trip to Houston, Texas. We were able to visit some friends we haven't seen in four years! It was great to catch up with them and meet their children. We laughed a lot and even had time to relax. Thanks Collin and Amanda!
