We headed down to Grapevine, Texas last week. We left Thursday night to stay at my parents house and then got up the next day and continued our journey. These were some of our most blissful moments in the car..........
The kids could not have been better. The hotel was AMAZING! It was like a Vegas hotel in the middle of Texas. We got to swim, shop, and spend time with my brother and his family, along with catching up with some of our dear friends. And who can forget the grubbin' chicken place we found on the way down............Chicken Express.............mmmm......finger lickin' good!!
The wedding was Saturday night at the hotel, and Brian and I enjoyed some grown up time, while the kids stayed with Brooke and Tyler at their house.
Alicia was a beautiful bride, of course, and we really enjoyed ourselves at her and Steve's wedding.
Sunday morning we got up and were on the road by 8:30 AM. We made really good time and were pulling into Wichita by 3:00. Again, the kids were great, but unfortunately, our trip hit a snag. Brenley was burning up with fever by the time we got home. Ah man! Not again.
The next day I stayed home with her and we got her and myself into the doctor. She had an ear infection and I got more antibiotics for my sinus infection. And then my blessed mother came up to stay with her for the next few days, as I headed back to Texas for a day trip for work.
Finally by Wednesday of this week she was better. Grandma went back home and we resumed some normalcy in our house until the snow and sleet hit Friday! Ugh! Are you kidding me? It's March 28th for pete's sake. As of Saturday at 11:00 AM, we are looking at several inches of sleet underneath probably 6 inches of snow. I would take a picture to post it, but I am being too lazy and avoiding the outside as much as possible.
Whew! That was our week. A lot of ups and downs, but we made it. Here is hoping March goes out like a lamb.........
