Mini-Reunion in Houston

At the end of February, Tyler and Rachel's family moved from Alabama to El Paso, Texas. On their way, they stopped in Houston for a few days to visit with the Stinsons and the Lees.

Kent and I couldn't pass up the chance to see three of our children's family at the same time, so we flew down to Texas for a long weekend.

 Adrianne picked us up from the airport on Thursday morning, and then we drove to Grace's preschool to pick her up. It was rodeo day, which is why Grace is wearing her cowgirl outfit.

 The first picture is a better one of Grace, but I couldn't resist putting in this one of her smiling up at me!

We also met Sophia's bus after she got home from school. She's always so excited to see us!

 The rest of the pictures are just random ones taken throughout our time in Texas.

 Kent and I took as many turns as we could holding various grandchildren!

We also went to the park with the older grandchildren to have fun with them.

 Christian and Melody had changed even since we'd seen them in December.

 The three oldest girl cousins eating dinner together.

 Andrew and Sylvia took a spin in Kiera and Savannah's carriage.  Driving the motorized carriage is always a hit!

 Granddad playing legos with Andrew, Sophia and Grace.

I think this is a pretty awesome picture of the nine grandchildren who were there. No one is even crying or making a face!!

More pictures of the darling twins with their beautiful mommy!

 I love this picture of Christian and Melody because they're both smiling so adorably.

Of course, this picture of the Stinson girls cuddling their twin cousins is very sweet, too. 

 Here's a picture of Tyler with the moving van they were driving from Alabama to Texas.

 Here are all the Carson kids loaded up in the van and ready to start the drive to El Paso.

 Tyler drove the truck and Rachel drove the van with all the kids. They were going to stop over night in San Antonio.

 A fun picture of Granddad reading a bedtime story to Sophia and Grace.

Before Kent and I flew back to Virginia on Monday we stopped in at Sophia's school and ate lunch with her. She was excited to have us there. It was a whirlwind five days, but we're so glad we were able to spend time with our wonderful children and grandchildren!
