Brenham...

Did you know that Brenham is the half way point between Houston and Austin? Or at least close to it and a super cute little town. One of my mom's sisters and my grandparents have lived in Austin for as long as I can remember so growing up, we'd meet in Brenham from time to time. Sometimes we took pictures in the bluebonnets with all the cousins, sometimes we went to the blue bell factory, and sometimes we just met for lunch. Now that I am home with the kids, I still get to go meet my aunt and grandparents in Brenham every now and then for lunch and a visit. They love getting to see the kids and we love getting to see them! Last week when we went, we had an extra special visit because my mom's other sister, my Aunt Mary, was in town from Alaska! Micah had a blast seeing and playing with everyone but after this trip, he has a big time fave... Daddy Jack. I knew it was only a matter of time before he realized how awesome and fun Daddy Jack is and after this trip he is hooked! He talks about him all the time and makes me pull up pictures from the day. Speaking of which, here they are:



Eating with Aunt Kathy


Aunt Mary and Greg getting some Laurel cuddles


Me and Grand Joyce


The game of the day was horsey

HUGS


Just hanging out


Micah even shared his pretzels with Daddy Jack... you know that is love

Ok getting a pic of these 3 crazy ladies is almost impossible... I think I took about 50 and this was the best... edited :)


The whole fam!


Lovin on his great grandparents

Can't wait until our next Brenham visit... we are so blessed to have so much family so close!
