Some of Zach's family (7 of them!) came to stay with us last week and we had such a great time visiting and letting Bear and his cousin, Kamdon, get to know each other. They come in town every year for the Houston Rodeo and it's always a blast...this year was no exception!
Grammy took Bear and Kam for a walk around the lake while Bear snoozed

Zach's parents always buy the grandsons their first cowboy hat...Bear sported his like a champ
"like a rhinestone cowBear"
cowboy cousins :)
sweet sister-in-laws
lunch at Smashburger (our favorite!)
picking strawberries at Atkinson Farms
Bear looks thrilled about the strawberry farm (maybe it was the sun in his eyes? Mommy was unprepared and didn't bring a hat!)
It was a fun, fast five days! Can't wait for Easter when we can go home and see family again; it'll be Bear's first egg hunt, too :).
Happy Tuesday, friends!
How fun! We have some church members on the board for the rodeo and they always invite us to pick a night to come, but the favorite acts that we want to see are always during the school week: this Kindergarten teacher cannot rock a late school night! Love the pictures of Bear and his first cowboy hat, what a sweet boy! It looks like you all had a great time!
ReplyDeletethat cowboy hat is adorable on him! seriously...isn't it impossible to just not snap pictures all the time at the cuteness?
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice visit. There is always a crazy wait at Cheesecake Factory but it's always worth it! Family visits always go so fast.

ReplyDeletebear is so adorable! I love your shorts in the last shots -- details on where to find them?!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Josie!!! The shorts are from J.Crew Factory...they were on sale (for super cheap!) about two months ago. They're really comfy!

Take me to your closet! Sounds like a blast with family, I still can't believe we missed you guys. xoxo
