Madison here – and, yes that’s right we are BACK and ready to share our adventure with ya’ll! We had a fun time and loved seeing my cousins!

IMG_0360On the road with sunshine pouring in the windows!

IMG_0361Pretty neat, right? Boy, Emilie looks like an angel!

IMG_0365We’re now on the highway…zoom!

IMG_0366

My brother, Russell, brought a neat little LEGO sticker book. Look at the one on my nose! XD

IMG_0367

 Ooh, this LEGO lady is cute.

IMG_0368I also gave Emilie a sticker. It looks just like her! It’s a princess. Emilie wanted to sit down on the ground so I let her. :)

IMG_0369ZOOM….

IMG_0372We’re now at Granddad’s house! We switched cars. We all rode with Granddad in his car and left our car at his house.

IMG_0373Then we stopped at McDonalds after a while when it was lunchtime.

IMG_0374Neat stickers. I let Emilie wear some, but I didn’t let her where anything with the skulls/crossbones/freakish stuff on it.

IMG_0375Oh! What a cutie!

IMG_0377

Me wearing some more stickers on my face XD :p :P Along with a “JEDI KNIGHT” sticker Russell gave me from his ANGRY BIRDS STARWARS Happy Meal stickers.

:p

IMG_0521(we took this with the iPad mini) wow, look at Emilie. (did you know this took over 5 shots to get this picture? The car kept bumping, jostling the focus. LOL!)

IMG_0381After something like four hours, with music, school, stories to listen to, and games on the ipads, WE WERE GETTING NEAR. See this beautifulness? I mean, really, you’d never see this back at home. Look at those hills! Yes, hills. They look like MOUNTAINS!

IMG_0382A cross…. <3 (but not the same cross we saw at Our Grand Adventure.)

IMG_0386Aw, do you want some attention Emmi? You’re so cute, laying down like that, your eyes half shut. :)

IMG_0391WOW! Pretty!!!

IMG_0392I rolled down my window ’cause I wanted to feel the wind.

Aww, poor Emilie XD

IMG_0395

IMG_0396Emilie: *COUGH COUGH COUGH* *Pffffft**sputters* Heyyyy!!!!

IMG_0394WE’RE SO CLOSE!

IMG_0398*GASP* now THIS. THIS is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

IMG_0399WE’RE HEEEERRRREEEEE!!!!!

IMG_0401Emilie: Oooh! Look where I get to stay!

We had so much fun playing pool, petting their cat Sapphire, walking their dogs, Max and Lucky, and eating dinner.

IMG_0403

I’m going to my cousin, Connor’s, football game now. Go Bandera Bulldogs!

IMG_0404

We come back and change into our PJ’s. Don’t I look great? XD :) :) (BTW, Connor’s team didn’t win. :( )

IMG_0404

We wake up bright ‘n early! Well, OK, maybe not that early, we had a long trip yesterday. But it was still morning outside, that counts right? XD

IMG_0407I got to sleep on a mattress on the ground, and my brother Russell in a bunk bed, and then my mom on the bed under the top bunk. I know, confusing.

IMG_0408Look at Emilie’s outfit! SWEET!

IMG_0409

We then watched Ice Age 2. Ehh, it was OK, definitely not the best in my opinion, but OK.

IMG_0410Now we’re going to walk Max and Lucky, Uncle Steve, Connor, Aunt Judi, and Stevie’s dogs. :)

IMG_0411But first my crazy brother and cousin have to create a crazy game of pool. You can’t hurry that.

IMG_0415 IMG_0416 IMG_0435 IMG_0434 IMG_0433 IMG_0426 IMG_0421 IMG_0419….Interesting. Now can we go on that walk?

IMG_0460We come back from the walk. Awww! Sapphire is so cute! She’s looking at you with the evil eye….. 0.o just kidding. She’s just a huge cute furball!

IMG_0462Now we watch Evan Almighty. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than Ice Age 2, if you ask me. Well, no one asked me, but hey, it’s my site! *dances*

IMG_0463

We go on another REALLY LONG walk. I’M POOPED! Must get water!

IMG_0464

Then we have yummy fondue!

IMG_0467

Then we watch Secretariat!

IMG_0468Of course gorgeous Sapphire needed some attention too :P

IMG_0470Then I put Emilie to bed. :)

And that’s the end…

of Part One!

Stay tuned for Part Two! :D

Do you like to visit your cousins and relatives?
