Houston Trip

We took a trip to Houston in early April for Brian and Jessica's second engagement shower. The trip there was our best trip with the kids so far! Sofia drove with the kids and me early since daddy had some meetings in Dallas.

Marek loves when Brock is in the car - he thinks it's silly . . .

Upon arrival, Brock jumped into the pool immediately. He loves Mimi's and Dziadek's pool!

Madelyn showing Marek how to use the adding machine . . .

Madelyn, Mimi and I got pedicures . . .


It sprinkled on Friday but it didn't phase my kids at all. They would have played in the rain all day if I let them!

We went to the Butterfly Exhibit at the Houston Natural Museum of Science and History . . .

The kids were enthralled with the frogs at the beginning of the tour - it was the very first exhibit!


"Let's take a picture on the giant caterpillar" . . . Marek loved it, I swear . . .
So many bugs to see, so little time . . .
The butterfly exhibit was amazing! They were everywhere . . .

If you look closely, there was a butterfly that I caught on camera that was fluttering all around Marek (circled in red below). His response was to scream! Oh wait, that's his response to EVERYTHING!
On Saturday, despite the pool being subzero - the kids wanted to take a little dip . . .
Even the dogs joined it - Brock fetched the ball before the Retriever did!!
ALL my kids . . .
The engagement shower was at Tony's in Houston - it was beautifully done. Great food and great people!
Djan and Marek . . .

Thanks, Mimi and Dziadek for ANOTHER great weekend!
