The Last Day

So, even though WE were on spring break, the Texans were not. My sister was willing to not go to work and keep her kids out of school so we could play one more day. Yay! The result was one really fun, really busy, lots of fun last day. FIRST, we went for pony rides. The big thing was the outfits. Since the cousins lived it Texas, they had appropiate attire, like hats and boots. My kids felt very inferior that they did not. Luckily, the cousins shared.

Unfortuately, (fortuately) it was required to wear helmets.

Now, it was windy. We had 5 kids. It took a long time to get the pony ready. There were lose animals. Parts of pony riding were not all successful, but everyone did get to ride.

And ride Playdough the pony:

We got free bandanas!

After the ride, we were trying to decide if we should picnic or go to chickfila when C says he wants to go to Chuck E Cheese. Well, there wasn't really a reason to NOT go, so we went. Turns out, Tuesday during NOT spring break is the perfect time to go to CEC. I am pretty sure this was my kids favorite thing we did. James couldn't decide what to do:

Andy and AC just rode this bus over and over. They would still be there if we hadn't run out of money:

With all the tickets, all the kids got vampire teeth. Very scary!

Sometime during this day, the kids realized they could wrestle.

Mark and I decided we couldn't stay at the house, cause they would wrestle and get hurt, so we went to another park. (breeders!)

This one was really cool. Had a mix of older and younger kid stuff. Think I remember this one in the mud run:

AC would just hang.

Funny story. While AC was doing this, I was on the phone with her mom discussing dinner when AC let go with her right hand. She swund around and starting going down the pole (and startd crying). I abruptly said, "gotta go!" and hung up. She was ok, when back to hanging, and when I called back, Aunt K just said, "NOT COOL!".

At any rate, the boys went back to wrestling. So we went home.

Had a yummy dinner, bed, then drove back the next day. I love Houston in March, but I think it gives me a misrepresentation to the weather there. It was a great trip!
