Family Visit

I'm going to post about my family's visit over the next few posts... I have way to many pictures for just one post! I love blogging about stuff like this because it makes me feel like I'm actually doing something with all the pictures I take. I'm sure you all know by now that I'm a little obsessed with pictures =) Unfortunately, printing all my favorites would cost to much money and storing them in albums takes up too much space in the house..so I blog. Plus, I love to reminisce.. whether it was last week or last year. And I love going back and reading old posts.
So anyways, my parents and little brother flew out to stay with us for 9 days over Christmas. It sounds like a long time, but it flew by way to fast. I am glad they stayed as long as they did! We had such an awesome time. They got here Saturday afternoon. That night after dinner we went to our church's live drive-thru christmas nativity. I didn't take any pictures but we really enjoyed it.

Sunday was, of course, Wyatt's birthday party.
Monday was spent "out on the town"... my mom needed to do some Christmas shopping so we all went out to Target, Toys R Us, ect. We ate lunch at Panera Bread, it was SO good.. we hadn't eaten there since we moved here so it had been much to long =)
 Mom couldn't believe Wyatt can stack blocks all by himself, haha

Tuesday morning we went out to a trail that we really like...

 Mom had to get her crunches in!

That afternoon was Wyatt's 1 year Dr. appointment. It's a pretty good drive away so we all went to the appt. and after that we went to Garden Ridge (one of our all-time favorite stores thanks to the Mr.'s mom!). Here's Wyatt testing out some furniture ;)

For dinner we went out to eat Mexican at Chuy's. yummmm. Wyatt ate ice cream for the first time, it came with his kid's meal. Can you imagine, ice cream for the first time?! He loved it =)

So the first few days were a little bit of everything. 
Up next - The Alamo/Riverwalk and the Zoo!
