Weekend in Houston...

We were in Houston this past weekend for a quick trip to visit Josh's extended family! We had such a great time and it was so nice to get away for a bit and spend some quality time with the Houston crew!

On Saturday morning, we took Lucy to The Houston Zoo! It was Lucy's first time to the zoo and she absolutely loved it!

She pretty much ran around for a solid 2 1/2 hours...

Pink flamingos...

The children's zoo...

Lucy had so much fun petting the lambs and goats (poor animals)!

Lucy and Maci watching the prairie dogs!

Nasty snake...yuck!

Aunt Leisa, MacKenzie and Maci pushing Lucy through the zoo during a little snack break...a girl has got to eat!

Checking out the giraffes with Aunt Janet (aka: Squeezie!)

Squeezie, Josh, Lucy and Granny...

The elephants were so close!

She was a little timid with the elephants...I think they were a little too big and close for her liking!

A very large iguana...

The seals were a huge hit!

After the zoo, we had lunch at Jason's Deli and then headed back to Granny's for nap time! I thought Lucy would CRASH...but nope, she only napped for maybe 1 1/2 hours. She was just having too much fun...can't waste her time sleeping in Houston!

So after nap time, we headed out to Katy to see Janet and Greg's new house! Lucy had a ball blowing bubbles in their backyard...

Granny and Grandad (Lucy's great-grandparents)...

While Uncle Greg and Grandad grilled steaks, we ran to the park to play and watch MacKenzie take pictures with her friends for the Sadie Hawkins Dance!

Beautiful MacK and her date, Collin...for Sadie they dress alike in matching t-shirts!

Lucy and dad had fun playing on the playground during pictures!

After the park, we came back to Janet and Greg's for an amazing dinner outside on the back porch...it was the perfect night! Lucy was great even though she stayed up way past her bedtime!

Happy girls with full tummies!

What a fun weekend!! We are truly blessed with amazing family...and they sure do love our Lucy Kate!!
