Road Trip: Katy, TX

 For Spring Break, the older kids and I decided to go visit Carrie and family.  With plane tickets costing about $535 each, I wasn't thrilled about spending that much dough to get there.  So the kids agreed to help me with a 23 hour road trip!  By help me, I mean eat enormous amounts of food from gas stations and play on their phones while I sang along to the radio.  We left Monday after Easter at 5 AM.  For our first day of driving, we made it through VA, NC, SC, GA, AL, and finally stopped in Biloxi, MS for the night.  Then the next day, we did the last 8 hours through MS, LA, and finally, TX.  
What about Tim, Emily, and Jason?  They basically moved in with Peggy and Joe and hung out for the week  :)  Tim did help his dad clean out a few sheds and Peggy got all the grandma time she could handle!

Our first taste of real Mexican food!  Jen found Ninfa's on Navigation which Pinteresting Houston hot spots.

Houston has all kinds of awesome photo ops, so we had some fun playing tourist for the afternoon after lunch.  

These giant Beatles statues are inside a brewery.  So we stopped for a couple beers and hung out on the patio.  The weather was amazing!

Blue bonnets are the state flower and they are EVERYWHERE!  We randomly stopped on the side of the highway and found the perfect field!

Double trouble in action!  :)  And that's just part of the visit!  The rest of our week needs its own post!
