Texas in July

We had a 12 day trip back to Texas.  In case you don't know, we are being re-patriated back to Texas, leaving Ireland Aug 15th.  That is a whole other story and mixture of emotions, BUT for this post it's about this wee trip to Texas!


We got to see Grandma and Grandpa, our family, our friends, buy a mini van, find a house to rent, register the boys in a school, Doctors appointments for Madelynne (she continues to be all good, yay!)... what we didn't get to do was enjoy the sun in a pool!  It basically rained, yes, RAINED the whole time we were there!  Crazy!  And Texas sized thunder storms!  I'm sooooo glad we don't get those in Ireland!
Justin and Sara let us stay in their home since they were away while we were there, and that was sooo nice!  (A zillion thanks again!)

Travel and our new ride
Time indoors out of the heat and rain and of course, a Whole Foods stop!
  
Play time at the Clarke's

Rudy's supper entertainment and parents could visit :)

Sorry it's blurry but they had fun with these!

Doctors appointments at Dell... who rules the roost eh?!

Cousin Marisa was very tolerant and these kids had a blast :)

Love all the pictures. Your kids are amazing travelers! I'm sure you will miss your home and friends in Ireland but will be good to have you back on this side of the world! :)

Sounds like an emotional roller-coaster!! Hope we cross paths when we are on the same continent!
