A Humbling Visit

Saturday morning, the guys were up early for a trip up to North Houston/Humble. Spencer was invited to play in a golf tournament and it just so happened that the tournament location was minutes away from where my dad has a house. Russ, Michael and Spencer braved the elements (it was 50 degrees and very, VERY windy) and headed up for the tournament. We headed out a few hours later and met up with everyone at my dad's place.

Lexie greeted Grandpa with a big hug and a kiss. She was so excited to go swimming in Grandpa's new pool...

...after tempting fate with the killer dog (not really...but kinda)...

...and some more time on Grandpa's lap, she was ready to get down to business...some splashing in the pool!!!

Originally, the forecast called for sunny skies and warm weather...but I don't think I would have called it "warm". It was very sunny, but the breeze was a bit chilly. That didn't stop us from taking advantage of the new pool and hot tub though!


Looks like a little piece of paradise, just off the fairway...yes, Russ was in heaven!!!


And to think there was a hurricane that passed through just a few months ago!


A view of the water fall...


Luckily, the hot tub heated up in a matter of minutes...Lexie is ready for the water and is sporting her new bikini (that was just a TAD too big)!!!

Water babies having fun!!!! What a pair!

Back from his golf tournament, Spencer is ready to relax and enjoy the warm water with the rest of us!

Lexie, Grandpa, Spencer, Marissa and I were all smiles...and staying warm...until we had to get out of the water that is!


After the mid-morning water adventure, my dad cranked up the heat in the pool and on the grill. While Lexie took a nap, we all chowed down on some burgers and margaritas...well some of us only had burgers! After lunch and nap time, we all gathered outside since it had warmed up a bit more. Lexie was ready for round two in the water...this time it was Russ's turn! Spencer and Josh (Miss Jennifer's son) braved the elements and headed for the pool. We even got a surprise visit from The Halls! It was great to see Rod and Denise!
Lexie enjoying some time in the water with her Daddy...what a view!!!


After drying off and saying our goodbyes, it was time to pack up and head back down to the south side of Houston. We had such a great visit and Lexie really enjoyed her time with Grandpa! We all did! Thanks again dad for a great visit!
