It was like bath water

Swimmin' machine!

The water wings stayed on for the first day for swimming for Karlie (understandable since it was her first swim in a long time!), they came off the next day and she swam like a fish! Practicing for swim lessons in a few months!

I cannot beleive that this is the 6th year that we have been making it to Texas! We first went when Karlie was 14 months and I was just pregnant with Claire and now we have 3 beautiful girls to travel with us! It was exciting to finally see Nama and Pas addition they added onto the house! They now have 3 bedrooms instead of 2, a formal dinning area, a large family room, a golf cart garage and new accessories (granite counters, tile floors throughout, etc.) Its beautiful! We are so happy for them! We kept busy swimming, going to the Zoo, South Padre, Mexico and just relaxing with our family! We are excited to have Nama and Pa back come the end of April! We love you and miss you, thanks for the wonderful vacation and all you do for us!
