Summer Travels

In May, Lainey Bug and I hopped on a flight to spend two long weeks at home!  We were so excited!

L is a very seasoned traveler and with this trip complete she has been on 13 flights.  She did awesome and was so excited to see Grandpa, Grandma and Auntie J waiting for us!

Flight #10

We always text pictures of us getting ready to take off to Lainey's daddy.  Not while we are taking off of course...before they tell you to shut off your phones...we don't break the rules! ;) 

 We were both super excited to see all the GREEN GRASS!  Living in the desert really makes you appreciate a nice lawn.  She loved running around in the country!

 When did my baby get so big??  She has no fear and just jumps in playing with the big kids!

Lainey was loving all the animals we got to see!  She even got to feed a bunch of them!

The main purpose of this trip home was so my mom and I could run our first 5K together.  It was definitely not something we ever thought we would do, but thanks to a little push from my brother in law, we signed up for this run that raised money for Wounded Warrior Project. We were a little nervous, especially since the course was very hilly.  We did awesome, both finished with great times, and conquered those hills! It was a great experience and I'm so glad we got to do it together!  We are already talking about running another one!

Our trip home also coincided with a family reunion and Lainey loved getting to play on the beach!

I love getting to go to all the restaurants we don't have and Lainey learned how awesome Monical's Pizza is dipped in their french dressing.  So very good!  She loved it!




Our Dairy Queen is attached to a gas station, so it was a nice change to get to go for a walk and get ice cream.  Her first baby cone with sprinkles!

You can take the girl out of Texas, but you can't take Texas out of the girl.

We had such a great trip and now we are getting ready for a family trip in July!  
Where are you going this summer?
