The last day of our vacation this year. Danelle and I were discussing that this vacation feels like it has been a flop. We have done the things we came to do [Leslie’s wedding], but there wasn’t a bang that seemed to make it all worthwhile. Of course, I can look back at almost every… Continue reading Family Vacation Part 10 – 7/12/2012

Family Vacation Part 9 – 7/11/2012
If there was any question about where we went for vacation, we only had to look as far as breakfast. I’m not sure if Texas is full of itself, or proud. With a Texas size blueberry waffle in the shape of the state, we were full and ready for anything the day offered to us.… Continue reading Family Vacation Part 9 – 7/11/2012
Family Vacation Part 8 – 7/10/2012
We woke up and spent this day driving across the plains of Texas. Our destination was Amarillo. I had heard that it has the second largest canyon system in the United States behind the Grand Canyon. Driving from Austin to Amarillo is quite the haul. With kids that don’t want to be locked up on… Continue reading Family Vacation Part 8 – 7/10/2012
Family Vacation Part 7 – 7/9/2012
With the wedding over, it was the day where family started to all go their own way. None of us were anxious to leave as we don’t all get together this often. Several people were going on to Corpus Christi, Texas for the rest of their vacation. I’m not sure what we were thinking, but… Continue reading Family Vacation Part 7 – 7/9/2012

However, we had a whole day to fill before the big event. Austin has a very cool scene near the city center and… Continue reading Family Vacation Part 6 – 7/8/2012
Family Vacation Part 5 – 7/7/2012
Our first morning in Austin Texas. We needed to be in Austin this afternoon for the rehearsal since Sonora is the flower girl. We had plenty of time to spare and liked it that way. The hotel we were all staying in had a large breakfast area and we took full advantage of it. Corvin… Continue reading Family Vacation Part 5 – 7/7/2012
Family Vacation Part 4 – 7/6/2012
We woke up in Hayden’s house refreshed and ready for the day. The beds were great and the hospitality even better! The kids were already up and playing with their cousins. We told them that we had to leave today for our next destination, but they were not too happy about it. After breakfast, we… Continue reading Family Vacation Part 4 – 7/6/2012
Family Vacation Part 2 – 7/4/2012
We got up early in KC at my parents house and packed quickly. We said our goodbyes after breakfast and were on our way. Our destination was south on I-35 to Wichita Kansas to see my sister Holly. Of course the real star is her son “Little Moscow” [David]. Holly wasn’t going to go to… Continue reading Family Vacation Part 2 – 7/4/2012
