More Texas trip pictures

I have so many pictures from my trip. I will post one more set of pictures after this and then move on to August. These are all pictures with my mom and dad in them. Boy did we have a great time with them and do we ever miss them so very much!!!
This is my mom and dad before church on the Sunday before we left to come home.


This is mom and I after church. I had already changed my clothes.

This is Julianne and her 'Ampa sitting outside enjoying some time together.

This was an evening we decided to make s'mores in the fire pit outside. We had a great time!

Fort Worth Museum of Science and History

We arrived in Plano, Texas on July 14th and were able to go the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History on the following Tuesday with my mom and dad. They were having a special exhibit on Star Wars . Most of my family is crazy about Star Wars, Jacob and Charles in particular; Julianne and Nate are also getting to that point. Victoria and I are not as into the Star Wars craze, but we had a great time at the museum. In Victoria's words..."We love exhibits."

It amazes me the size difference between Julianne and Nate and the Wookies!

It has been way too long...we'll start in Georgia


So I know that I have not updated in awhile. I have been very busy this summer. We were planning a trip to Plano, Texas to visit my parents as a family, but Charles did not get leave so I decided to drive by myself with the kids. It was a long drive... 1400 miles. To break up the trip I made a stop just outside of Atlanta, Georgia to see my sister, Alex, and her family. The Fosters moved from Carson City, NV. in 2005 and we moved from Elk Grove, Ca. in 2005. We have not been able to see them since that time. It was great to see them, but the visit was too short. The kids had a great time together! My three youngest children and Alex's kids are the same age.
