HOUSTON...we have a problem???

The only problem we EVER have when we go to Houston is that the time goes by so quickly...and this visit was no exception! We definitely filled our fun card during our trip down south...even though Grandpa was no where to be seen! Russ and Michael golfed a few times, Debbie and I indulged at the spa, we cheered on Marissa at a few volleyball games, saw Spencer's martial arts class, went to the beach, the pool, the park, and just enjoyed some good old family time! Thanks for the hospitality--can't wait to do it again---and SOON--say New Years?!


Spencer and Olivia playing with cups...kept the little ones entertained for days!
Aunt Debbie and Olivia in the pool--took her a few minutes, but she ended up liking it!
Lexie waiting patiently to get into the pool...she was having a blast just watching the puppies run around!

Marissa, during her volleyball tournament!
Stuff--in your face--NICE BLOCK!
Serve em up sticks!


Looks like Uncle Michael is showing Lexie how to read the waves...or something more prophetic
Marissa's with her friends
Russ and Olivia deep in conversation...


...and looking for 'stuff' on the beach
Marissa goofing off with some of her friends--ahhh to be a teenager again!
Spencer, showing Lexie how to 'surf'


Nothing better than a little sand through your toes and the water under your feet!
Rockin' some pig tails, hanging on the beach with daddy!
Lexie was catching some waves with Uncle Michael
She was L O V I N G it!!!!
HANG ON Lexie!
Olivia wasn't too happy when we had to pack up the next day to head home! Just look at that grump-o-potomus face!
