La Familia

What an action packed Easter weekend. It was quite memorable. We started our road trip with a stop at the Cameron Park Zoo in Waco. (I am fond of you, Waco, I actually miss you)

We packed a picnic lunch after touring the zoo then we were back on the road heading northbound to Arlington. We spent the weekend at Teta's house and even took Carver to his first Rangers game. The weekend was filled with several egg hunts, lots of food, quality time with Carver's cousins, a washer tournament, and even a little time in the country. Heck I even rode a 4 wheeler! It doesn't get much better. Happy belated Easter to all.

First real zoo experience








Mommy loves to be silly with me




Finally with my cousins,
whom I greatly idolize






Impromptu egg hunt..but this egg won't fit in my basket?





First Rangers game (exhibition)
















Easter Festival at Teta's church









Playing ball with cousin Julian at Chavez celebration










Sweet, sweet boy
Mira! What form Popo has tossing washers!











Patiently waiting to start the egg hunt














Wow I found an egg with $5 AND candy!















Now here comes the fun part - cascarones!















Had to get Daddy with the help of Aunt Margaret
















Oh Kelsey girl - Carver's favorite cousin...I don't know if I feel worse for Kelsey or Kelly, her mom, who has to tediously comb all the glitter & confetti out of her curly, curly, thick hair!















He loved when Uncle Robbie would play chase















Now I'll chase you, Kelsey...wait for me...















Whew, that's tiring, better take a rest with Kelsey and Aunt Gloria. Look at this hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!

















Yours truly after getting eliminated from washers tournie
















Ha ha, Omar & Robbie show up in the same shirt. They got alot of hell for it, deservedly so.














Jonathon's not too big to sit on mom's lap, good boy!




















Carver still hanging with Kelsey, he doesn't leave her side too often















Carver with one of his favorite people - Richard















We decided to finally go see Amiee & Robbie's land they will eventually build and live on. For now it houses alot of great "toys" so to speak & their camper. ALOT OF FUN.

If only his legs could reach the pedals...















Don't you just love to look at all this space? You can see Wil riding the 4-wheeler off in the distance if you look closely.















Much to our disbelief, Carver jumped at the opportunity to ride this go-cart with Kelsey. He is very timid, but this just validates how much he loves Kelsey and trusts her. Buckle up, boy!














It was a bumpy ride..

What can I find next? Oh let's see...thanks Uncle Robbie for the kid's club.
I think I'll hit a few balls out here.

Thanks to all for a wonderful trip & the Chavez hospitality. Nothing like family.
