Fun in Texas

The whole Teson clan (minus Chris, Caitlin, and Daniel, who couldn't make it) drove our way down to Texas to hang out with Scott and his family.
The kids did a great job in the car - 8.5 hours each way.  No complaints, other than the occasional "i'm hungry" or "i have to go to the bathroom".  It was fantastic!

Texas was a super balmy 94 degrees while we were there, so we spent a lot of time at the pool, water park, or splash park.  The boys foolishly went golfing (right around noon one day), and were sunburned and tired that night.  They also hit up a brewery and a Top Golf one morning.  The girls went to some awesome outlet shops and had Gelato and got pedicures.  It was so much fun, but not so much fun when we got a flat tire on the way back from shopping!  Thanks for coming to our rescue Michael and Scott to help change the tire.  We had dinner every night at the Teson house (thanks Suzanne and Kathy!) and spent many nights playing some really fun board games.

If you can imagine 17 people in one house - it was crowded but amazing!
The kids are already asking to go back to Texas (literally the next morning after returning back to KC), and we are so blessed to have such a fun and loving family!


Before Olivia and Johnny arrived, the kids hit up a splash park - so much fun!


Waiting for Hawaiian Falls to open up - an ENTIRE day spent at the water park - the slides and wave pool were a hit with Colin, and Maggie loved the lazy river and kiddie area.  Tons of fun for everyone!



The girls were being stinkers and refused to get in the picture, so here's one of the Teson boys!



Silly smiles



Almost time to go into the water park



The boys also spent some time perfecting their technique for building card towers.
Moments later - this house of cards came tumbling down!


Olivia and Mags got matching lockets



We did some shopping with Grammie



Maggie was told to not get wet... (I didn't have a change of clothes for her...)



And it quickly turned into this...


Two super soaked and happy kids



And a Teson kids (minus Daniel) picture before we all hit the road to return to KC.

Can't believe there will be 2 more in this pic soon (baby girl Wells, and baby boy Teson)

It was a short, but really fun trip!  Thanks for the great vacation!
