Family Vacation

I love family vacations! I have so many wonderful memories with my family, especially when we go on vacation together. Some of my favorite memories are "calm down" on our cruise, when Parker threw a water balloon inside our Kiawah Island condo, Toronto during the gay parade, playing scrabble in Utah, the Hot Springs in Colorado, walking around Arizona and I bought three tiny pig figurines, Atlantis the comedian John Joseph, Hilton Head fireworks on the beach... and so many more.
Really what makes vacation so much fun is just being together. Jeremy and I were blessed to be able to take our kids to Texas for ten days to visit Jeremy's family and my sister. My parents were also in town and my brother has a summer internship in Tyler so I was excited to be able to spend time with all of Jeremy's family and my own. It was hard to come back to Kentucky!

Here our a few of my favorite memories from our Texas vacation...

Thirteen Hour Car Trip to Texas and Sixteen Hour Car Trip Home

Unplanned Adventures

Cousins

The Coates Men

Evelyn baking with Oma

Laughing with Landry

The Fulton Five

Sushi with my new family

Spending time with my Ginger Man

Seeing Texas Longhorns at the Stockyards with my dad

And washing all our clothes when we came home.
I just wish Landry was there to help me. :)

Vacations never seem to last long enough. If only family vacations could last forever...
