Fun in Texas

So we went to Texas the end of last year/beginning of this year and had a really good time, despite the cold weather. At least it wasn't as cold as Utah. Here are some pictures of what we did:
Did you say 24 hours in the car? Bring it on!
Houston Zoo:
Ema loved the aquarium. She would chase the fish along the glass when they swam by her. Aneti would scream and run away. Hee, hee.
Mom.... Mom.... MOM!!! She's falling...
I found 4 monkeys in a tree/Sydnie: "Ema, stop stealing my fuit snacks." Ema: "Hey, what's that over there?"

Um, is he looking for lunch?/Dad, can we bring this one home?


These one's escaped from their cages.


Emalia's favorite part of the zoo trip, chasing the birds/Analei, "Don't worry, I got the lunch."
Me and my girlies/Analei found her "Mix-up" (It's actually an Ochapi, but she calls it the mix-up)

Japanese Garden:
Grandpa and his girls/Grandma and Sarah attempting to stay dry.

Museum:
Look Dad, we found lunch/I managed to get one of them to look at the camera.

Dinosaur lunch!?!

NASA Space Center:
Sydnie really wanted a picture with the space shuttle/Ema, well, she apparently had some issues in her nose.

Future austronauts (Levi, don't look so excited)/What's for lunch?/Mom look, I see the North Star.

Yeah, buttons..... More buttons...... I love buttons!

Whitnie seemed to enjoy the spinny ride, she didn't throw up at least.
Galveston Island Beach:
It was cold, but I don't think the girls noticed.

Aneti, Maddie and Analei collected bags of seashells/Ema: "Faster Gama, faster!"/Emalia enjoyed digging sand and dumping it on her pants.
Did Kellie dig them out, or leave them to the ocean?
Happy New Year:
All the girls enjoyed watching fireworks from the window.... well, almost all the girls.
On the way home:
We have how many more hours of driving to go?

Nice job! There's a fungus, I mean comedian, among us! I really enjoyed the trip and think everybody else did also. We will have to do it again after Mark and Kristie recover from this trip. How about Ruby's Inn next year?

It was fun to relive the memories, except the car drive. Glad I didn't have to do that. Come back again soon. We didn't get to do all of the fun outdoor activities.
