A wonderful Family Reunion

We just arrived home a on Wednesday from Houston where we attended our 1st Family Reunion! We had such a wonderful time with everyone but only wish we lived closer. The boys did great on the trip over and back. The DVD player in the car is a life saver! I'm hoping to make this trip several times a year to visit them.

We shared a condo with my Mom and Step-Dad. It was on a golf course and had a full kitchen to keep the boys drinks and snacks that are a necessity. For the reunion, we had a BBQ on Sunday and on Monday, we took the kids to the zoo. The kids had such a great time! They all got along great ... not one fight! That's saying something with my two! Ha! Jon went golfing with my Step-Dad on Tuesday and played a terrific game! Here are some pictures from the zoo.
