Trip to Texas - Part Plano


We traveled to Texas for my friend Jenny's wedding in Austin. We flew into Dallas on Wednesday and stayed with my parents for a few days before Carson, Mike & I drove to Austin while Collin enjoyed a special weekend visit with his Nana & PaPa. It was a great trip except for my mom’s back injury, and mine hurting a bit as well. While in Plano we didn’t do a whole lot since we needed to rest our backs, but we did get to the Rec Center pool, a few favorite stores, visit with good friends, plenty of pool time in the back yard, and a Mary Kay training meeting. Collin's swimming really improved the week we were in Texas. His confidence increased having pool area all "3 year old section", as he calls the areas that are 3 FT deep.

Mike DROVE a NEW CAR home on Sunday, while the boys and I stayed until Wednesday. I flew home with both boys by myself and despite my back troubles, things went pretty smoothly. Dad got a gate pass to help me on which was a big help. Dad did so much all week helping mom & me. He even gave Carson two baths while we were there. Either mom or dad tried to give Carson a bottle each day, but no luck so he pretty much came with me everywhere.

Carson enjoyed seeing his girlfriend Addison again, as Laura came over to help with lunch Monday. Collin’s FAVORITE part of the whole week was playing golf at the golf course that Nana & PaPa live on. When he tells people about his trip he says “Playing golf” was his favorite part “…but we only got to play one hole because it was getting dark”. He so wants to be a golf player.
