Henry, Margaret, and I took advantage of Spring Break here in Texas to take off to Houston with Amy and Brinley. We were so excited to spend some time with the Burkharts.
The drive down was perfect... Kids did great- I didn't even need to pull out the emergency fun snacks.
Once we got there- the kids immediately made themselves at home. 
After getting settled in, we took a trip to one of Bekah's favorite parks.
And then Jenny mentioned that their fire station was close- Henry could hardly contain himself. 
The friendly firemen invited the very nervous Henry to sit in their truck.
We returned to the house for dinner, put the kids to bed, and
Sweet Bekah- so full of personality! She was a great hostess- learned it from her mom.
... in the ambulance...
... at the grocery store...
.... at the vet and pet store....
... and at the Tot Spot. Henry squeaked in being at the 35 month age limit.
after watching the season finale of The Bachelorette, stayed up too late chit chatting.

It was crazy busy, but the kids had a great time...

That afternoon we went to another park.
Its fun to see Henry and Margaret sticking by each other.
Bekah loves to dress up so she loaned MG a tutu skirt and all 3 girls rocked some ruffles and crowns.
That night, after getting the kids to bed, us moms went out to dinner.

That night, after getting the kids to bed, us moms went out to dinner. Great friends. Love that every time we get together, they close down the restaurant around us- we never run out of things to talk about.
The next morning, we packed up our things and headed out.

Oh so fun to relieve such a great 3 days with such special people! We felt the very same way as Brinley when you left and all we could do to cheer ourselves up was play with that silly hamster! Love what you said about closing down the restarants, wonder what the lucky restarant will be in Dallas next month?? : ) Teehee! Your kids are precious and it was such a treat to spend so much time with them!
