Time Fly's when you are having FUN!

My Sister and her family came to visit us this past week. She and her son Noah 1st visit was 5 years ago. Imagine our excitement to have her family visit us again. However, I don't think when she purchased her airline tickets she and her husband knew they were going to have to help me with seminary graduation. I did as much food prep before she arrived, but quickly put Camille and Bid right to work on Sunday helping me finish up all the food. Then they went to the church house to help put chairs away and set up tables. While we were at the graduation we had a terrible thunder and lightening storm with pouring rain, which knocked out the power leaving Joshua home with 4 other scared children in the dark. Camille and Bid went home to their rescue. Thank you Bid and Camille for ALL your work helping me pull off Graduation. Their stay was not all work, we played the entire week.

Enjoying a beautiful day at the beach. The kids had so much fun building sand castles , jumping waves , digging in the sand, and just playing in the ocean.


The children enjoyed running around the park while we got some fun adult conversation in.


Everyone enjoyed the Children's Museum in Downtown Houston. Isabella and Shelby enjoying a little taste of Vietnam.


Noah and Nathaniel learning about the importance of circles.


Alexander trying his luck on the spinning wheel.


Joshua doing his " Night at the Museum" move.


We ate at some yummy restaurants, some with children, some without. Here we are at our favorite pizza place, Star Pizza.


And of course, many, many trips to the pool.


We had such a good time, it sure fly's by when you are having fun.
