...in Texas! We had our trip planned for 6 months. One of Clay's high school buddies was getting married so we decided to make a family trip out of it. Our original plan was to stay tuesday through Tuesday, but Sandy had other plans for us. Since Sandy was in the way during our scheduled flight home, we decided to extend our trip a couple of days. I must say, we have AWESOME neighbors! Our neighbor next door, Margi, is our 'Virginia Mom'. She always takes care of our dogs while we are away. This time, she stocked our freezer full of ice in preparation of our power going out. Since we've lived here, we've had major storms and power outages that have lasted up to a week. As it goes, Sandy headed north and our area was skipped by her wrath. What a blessing! Her devastation wreaked havoc on the northeast coast, but our area was unscathed. Wow.
Below are pictures from our Texas trip. Perhaps someone would like to add to these pictures (hint hint ;) ) because I didn't carry my camera with me everyday. Here are a few things we did while away...

| Feeding the cows |
 |
| Hannah thought the kitty would like the cow food |
 |
| Carter is trying to get the kitty from the corner |
 |
| Taking a walk down the driveway |
 |
| I swear, she really did like the 4 wheeler once we got going ;) |
 |
| The fire ashes looks like snow! |
 |
| Deep thoughts... |
 |
| How do you do bonfires in Texas? |
 |
| BIG! |
 |
| Carter is hiding...again! |
 |
| I wish I had a video of this one. CJ kept bringing the kitty to the dog. The kitty would hiss and contort and jump out of CJ's arms. CJ would get the look of horror on his face and would finally burst out laughing. We were cracking up! |
 |
| On a mission |
 |
| There he goes again. Too funny! |
 |
| Ahhhh, she found something |
 |
| A very upset girl |
 |
| Ahhhh, Mau makes it all better :) |
