Daddy had to go to Florida for a week for work, so I decided to pack the kids up for a mini vacation of our own. The first part of our trip was to Plano to see Aunt Cheryl, Uncle Mike, Drew and Matthew. I thought I was going to be really smart and travel there at night so the kids would sleep. Well, at 12:30 am, Emily finally fell asleep...just in time for us to pull in the driveway! She woke up screaming and took a while to calm down. However, after a good nights rest, she woke up in a better mood and was ready to be social. We had so much fun swimming, shopping and playing with everyone...especially Matthew. Both kids really took to Matt and he was so good with them! He looked for bugs with Emmy, read books to her, and was even seen carrying Aiden around. He is such a great cousin! Emily swam 3 times on our first day there! She was in heaven!!! Aunt Cheryl also treated us to the Dallas Aquarium one day and Emily and Aiden had a ball! They loved watching the fish and sharks swim through the tunnels around them. At one point, Emily tried getting through the glass by laying on her tummy and inching herself backwards so she could swim with them!
After spending a few days with in Plano, I loaded the car back up and headed south to Georgetown to visit Mimi and Poppi, the kids' great grandparents. The kids were nice and spoiled here! Aiden loved cuddling with his Mimi and Poppi while Emmy loved exploring the house and Poppi's office. We tried to take the kids swimming one day, but at that pool the kids had to be 4 years old so we had to turn around and come back home. Even though we were kind of bummed about it, when we got back to the house, Emily took a long nap, so it ended up working out. Mimi and I also drove to a mall to let Emily play at the indoor playground. She had so much fun running around and interacting with the other kids while Aiden enjoyed watching from his seat in Mimi's lap. :)
We had such a fun time visting our family! Thank you so much for having us! We can't wait to come visit again!!!

We enjoyed your visit very much also. I know that we have the best looking great-grandchildren anyone could ask for. We only wish Kelli & Abi could have been here also so that we could watch the three of them interact. Hopefully next time. Loved all the pictures.
