Traveling with Eric

Maddix and I had were lucky enough to get to go and travel with Eric for a couple weeks.

We are now back home and looking forward to what July has to bring!

Eclipse party and 4^th of July both coming up next week!

Maddix had his own seat on the plane..he loved it!

HOUSTON, TX

We first went to Houston. It was HOT!! We had such a great time with everyone there.

They had this great play ground that we went to almost every night, way late becaue it was too hot any other time!

We also went to the Children’s museum...

They have the coolest pool at their apartment complex. We spent everyday here!

Maddix became quite the little dare devil. He is now obsessed with the pool and has NO FEAR! He runs and jumps in and I was left trying to keep up with him and jumping in after him. Let’s just say it was a workout for me!

He now loves to splash, thinks he can swim by himself and loves to jump off the edge of the pool. It was such a blast!

They have this place where kids get free ice cream

We also went to the park and saw ducks, turtles, and beavers.

Went shopping at the biggest mall ever, and had tons of fun just hanging out!!

Thanks so much Jess, Kelty, and Walker for hanging out with us and keeping us entertained and also for all the yummy dinners!

KANSAS CITY, MO

Next we headed to KC.

We had a little trouble with our flights getting there because of bad weather so by the time we got there it was too late for Eric to go knock so we decided it would be fun to celebrate my birthday early since he would be working on the actual day. So we went to this really cool outdoor mall and shopped. He got me new bedding for our bed, which I love, and also a new wallet, which I was in desperate need of! Then we went to dinner and were just able to hang out, it was such a great day and so nice to be able to spend it together!

I didn’t take a ton of pictures in KC, I think it’s because almost everyone out there was either pregnant or had a tiny baby, but everyday we did something fun.

On Fathers day we loved spending the day with Dad. We got these cute pictures taken (Maddix did not want to do this!) Staci made us the best dinner we’ve had in a long time and then the guys had an intense volleyball game.

We love our daddy!

The next day all the wives that could went to lunch at this great Itialian rest called Bravo (Staci can you send me some of that bread J)

We spent lots of time at the pool and lots of time with all the wives there.

On Tuesday a few of the wives threw a baby shower for the 4 girls that are having babies out there…Staci and Chelsea included me in on that shower. And although it was so not necessary, it was so fun! Thanks girls for a great time!

The next day was my birthday. We went to the pool that morning with Eric before he went to work and then for lunch a few of the wives all went out to lunch! We went to Chili’s, basically so I could have a molten! And it was delicious! Thanks Staci for lunch!

Maddix didn't want to share the Molten...

That night we had craft night at one of the girls houses. We made jewelry…I made a few baby braclets for our little girl. Can’t wait for her to wear them.

Maddix trying on his craft idea!

Later that night Staci bought cupcakes for my “cake.”--- Thanks everyone for making my birthday so great!

Thanks to all the wives for being so nice and letting Maddix and I play with you!

Thanks so much Staci for feeding Eric and I and letting Maddix play with Rocco!
