TEXAS 2009
May 5th we left for a two-week trip to Texas. It's a two day drive, so we broke it up with a stop to Nashville, TN to visit the Parthenon. We just finished studying it in History, so it was neat to see it close-up.
While we were in Texas we visited 3 of Ryan's siblings...two in Dallas and one just outside of Houston. It was so nice to visit and get to know all of our nieces and nephews that we rarely get to see. We also drove to Galveston to play in the Gulf, toured NASA, drove to Austin to see the State Capital Building and take a boat tour to see about a half-million bats fly out of the Congress Ave. Bridge. We visited two Houston museums and enjoyed the Dallas Zoo. On the way home, we went to Mammoth Cave. The kids were not exactly looking forward to it, but after the tour they decided it was in the top 3 greatest parts of our trip.
Ryan and I loved spending so much time "playing" with the kids. We weren't in a hurry and made our schedule day-by-day. We did a lot of swimming, putt-putt golfing, archery, & board games at the condo we stayed in. It was a great trip.

 The ocean water was as warm as bath water. FANTASTIC!
