Rockwall or Bust

It's Summer...a perfect time for road trips right?

That's what Julie and I thought when we decided it would be a great idea to load up all three kids......in one car....just the two of us....and head to Rockwall to see Nana and Grandanny. The day started a little rocky b/c Brady (and Jeff) were up all night the night before throwing up. But, since they'd shared a meal the night before, I wasn't sick, Brady hadn't thrown up in 3 hours and was acting FINE, we assumed it was food poisoning and decided what the heck..... let's go! The kids actually did great, we pumped Brady full of pedialite and after a stop at Julie's office in Conroe, a lunch stop in Huntsville, 2 bathroom stops (for me!), a rain storm with 60 mph winds, and an hour "lay-over" at Grannys, we made it to Rockwall in a mere 7 hours!! Just in time to help Grandanny blow out the candles on his birthday cake!

The kiddo's conked out!

Happy Birthday Grandanny!

We're having a great time.....kinda! We've had a great time swimming, and playing, we took the kids to chuck e cheese's, and went to the Bass Pro Shop to look at the fish and play on the boats!

Brady the Builder!

Smile for the camera Mr. Chuck e

Mom, can I have a token, this game looks fun

Here Brady, you have to be buckled in for this ride

High Ho Silver...Away!

Grandanny, can we have this boat.....puh-leeeeze

Daddy actually joined us in Rockwall on Thursday. Wednesday night/Thursday morning....this is where the "kinda" comes in. Remember Monday night when I thought Brady and Jeff were up all night b/c they had food poisoning.....W-R-O-N-G! Wednesday night I was up all night, Thursday morning Jacob had yucky tummy, Thursday night Nana had it, and Friday as the Cole's were headed back to Houston, Hannah had yucky tummy all in her carseat!!! So either it is a HUGE coincidence that our entire family had food poisoning all within 72 hours of each other, or the Brewers, along with their luggage, brought a stomach virus to Rockwall! The good news is it only lasts a couple of hours, and we all seem to be feeling MUCH better!

We are still in Rockwall and will be heading back to Houston Sunday...so I'll post the weekend adventures then!
