Texas Part 1

Jack, Moses, and I just got back from Texas.  We had so much fun!  We went to visit my grandparents, my Daddy, and sisters.  Matt and I really believe in spending one on one time with our kiddos and we both got some quality time to build into our children this past weekend.  Matt and Boston went to the park, a long drive through the forest, a playdate with his cousin, church, the car shop, watched movies together, ate lots of fun food from boxes, did homework, and he even got a huge red balloon out of the deal. 
Jack got to spend A LOT of time with his Pops which is a relationship that is very, very dear to him.  It was incredible to see their bond.  We lived with him for awhile after Jack was born in the same house he is in now and so this trip brought back a lot of those memories.  I can't even begin to explain how incredible it was to see what God did in each of their hearts back then in those first months of Jack's life and how that bond continues today. 
We also got some special time with my grandparents.  I am SO thankful that my boys have 3 great-grandparents still alive who they know.  I loved getting to see them hold and meet Moses.  It was precious. 
Here are some pics from our adventure...
