This is all I got folks...

I went to TX bare bones and no camera. Here is Al at the lake holding his very first lizard. Taken from aunt Shelia's Blackberry bc, of course, Nana left her camera with Kristi at the Olympics! What luck.

And how's this for luck:

Went to the airport... forgot to load the stroller, one strike. (this means toddler on the loose) Called ahead to make sure Beau could get a pass to come to the gate with me since I was traveling for the first time with both kids and they said sure!... ticket counter lady obviously has never had two children 17 months apart, no way Beau is getting through security...two strikes. Hope gets sick in TX, stops eating, sleeps all day, starts running a fever on Wednesday and is in the ER by Thursday morning...three strikes! (she is fine, just a cold, apparently babies her age dont usually run fevers so the dr's office was very concerned and told me to get her to the ER "now")

The trip was super fun, but probably the most stressful trip to TX ever. We are hoping for a less eventful weekend when we go back in May!
