Making Memories (part 3)

Its hard to believe we will be back in Jordan 2 weeks from today...

We have had a wonderful time in The States, spending time with family, friends and sharing with various fellowships. During the last month, we have been privileged to visit Howard Payne University..the college where Randall and I met, spend time with old college friends, vacation at the beach with Randall's family and everything else in between!

Where it all began... 12 years ago!

Happy Birthday America!!! Fun times watching the fireworks at Sea World!

Terry Family.. Thank you for opening your home to us and serving as a meeting place for us to get together. I love that our kids play so well together! We will wear our Summer Moon shirts proudly in Jordan! Love ya'll!

Burrows Family, thank you for making the trip both to Austin and Brownwood to visit with us! It was so fun catching up and watching our kids play! We love you guys!

 Allison, thank you for making the time to hang out with us and our crazies! I love how our group has grown over the years! Love ya Girl!

Bullion Family.. Thank you for spending the day with us! It meant so much to see you guys and love on ya'll! Until next time... hopefully on our side of the ocean... Love you guys!

We went on vacation to Port Aransas with Randall's Family and had a great time! Morgan and Micah especially loved going on the Pirate Ship!

Love this sweet niece of ours!

Catching up on some Cousin Time!

Selfie with my main squeeze :)

Its a tradition to take Family Pics with The McQueen/McDaniel Family...I say it turned out pretty good! :)

As we cross the ocean in 2 weeks, please pray for sweet goodbyes with our loved ones, safe travel and a quick recovery from jet-lag as jump back into our busy lives! 

Until next time... across the ocean...

Making Memories (part 2)

Disney World (Magic Kingdom)... Yep! in the past 4.5 weeks, we have also been to Florida and back (via car)... What a great time we had with my family as the kids experienced Disney World for the 1st time! For those of you with kids, I would definitely recommend waiting to take your kids to Disney World when they are 5-10 years old, as it was so magical for Morgan and Micah!

Once and a life time opportunity to meet Elsa and Anna... And so we did... at 11pm at night!!! (and it was WORTH it!) Especially seeing my sweet girl light up like she did!!

I have to say that meeting Jessie and Woody were some of our favorites! They interacted with the kids so well!!!

Universal Studios... What a fun day riding rides and seeing shows! Our kids loved meeting some of the characters, but especially loved the rides! I'm pretty sure the adults loved Universal Studios just as much as the kiddos! :)

I have so many pictures to choose from our trip to Florida, but these are the highlights and some of our favorites! 

Please come back for more pictures as we continue going new places and seeing loved ones during this summer!

Making Memories.. (Part 1)

We are in The States.. going on 4.5 weeks now! 

We have done so many fun things, vacationed with family and spent wonderful time with dear friends! Needless to say, we have "not stopped"since we landed but our hearts continue to be filled up and we are blessed to be surrounded by so much love!

A First for EVERYTHING..

SeaWorld... We have already gone to Sea World with Randall's side of the family and our kids loved it! The water park was awesome and the kids were so brave, riding the roller-coasters. 

 Making memories with G.Pa and Grammy!

Morgan has "decided" (for now) that she wants to be a sea animal trainer just like the Shamu Trainers! (We'll see how long that lasts!) :)

The Beluga Whales were Amazing!

Cousin Time... We have enjoyed spending time with our sweet Reese! I love that Morgan and Micah love playing and entertaining their little cousin! 

Definitely a FAVORITE Pic of mine!!! (Sweet cousins!)

Friends... We have loved spending time with our friends since being back... It is so fun seeing how our families have grown since last being together!!

McGough's... Thank you so much for coming to visit us! We loved seeing your girls and meeting Chloe!! I love that we can always "pick up" where we left off! 

Prestwood's... You guys will always have a special place in our hearts! Thank you so much for making time to see us on your vacation!!!

Hayne's... We started this journey together and it has been so fun watching our kids grow up together across the ocean! Thank you for making time on your STAS and seeing us! 

Billups... It only took 3 years for us to finally all get together and I would definitely say it was a "match-made in heaven"! I love that it feels like we've known each other for years!! Thank you for spending time with us, hearing our hearts and sharing yours too! 

Phillips... Your family is precious and we loved spending time with you! Thank you so much for opening your home to us and loving us so well!

Making Memories... to be continued...
