...and everything in between.
This month I was happy about: Rob’s job offer (post coming soon).
This month I was sad about: this continued anxiety/depression that Alex is going through.
Something I accomplished this month was: finally getting the rest of our Wild, Wild West Trip posts done!
The end of our long trip culminated with visiting of 2 more families. Saturday we enjoyed a visit from Rob’s sister, Jill and her husband and their new baby girl. So exciting to get to meet our newest niece.
Alex had fun playing with his new cousin.
Day 8 of our trip began with kolaches at Mornings Kolaches. Yummy! Then we headed to Johnson Space Center aka NASA for a busy, fun-filled day.
On Day 7 we got up bright and early and told Granny goodbye. The boys had decided the night before that they wanted to go see the baseball stadium at Texas A&M, which would add some time to the trip. Hence the reason we got up super early.
We first stopped on our way out of town to do a quick exploration of TCU‘s campus. I can’t remember if I mentioned it earlier, but Drew has a goal to go to all major college football stadiums in the south (or something like that.)
Here he stands inside Amon G. Carter Stadium.
Day 6 started by us taking Drew over to my Dad’s house. Drew had told us that he wanted to go cycling with my Dad while we were in town.
This past weekend we were able to take advantage of Labor Day weekend as Rob’s cousin threw a “non-funeral” birthday celebration for her Dad, Rob’s Uncle Frank. Since Drew was marching during halftime Friday night and didn’t want to leave after halftime we elected to get up at before the Rooster’s Call and get on the road early Saturday morning.
Monday we said our goodbyes to Maria and fam. Then it was back on the road headed to my favorite state, Texas!!! We were surprised to see some “mountains” in Southern Oklahoma.
We went to a scenic lot and saw that Oklahoma is the hope of the Reflection seismograph .
Not long after that we saw this just that made my heart sing. **cue the sounds of angels singing**
This month I was happy about: new possibilities in our family’s near future.
This month I was sad about: Alex going through this separation anxiety since school has started and I’m back to my regular schedule. 🙁
Something I accomplished this month was: switching cellphone carriers.
