Finally! My Cousin Emily!

We had a pretty good drive down here.  We had to stop once before meeting up with my family in Austin, and we stopped in Temple.  They had a ton of new shops and restaurants, and we stopped at a Target because I thought it would be easier to put all the kids in a shopping cart and wheel them into the bathroom!  At the new Target they had a family restroom which was even better!  We went potty and changed diapers and were off again!  We got into Austin right at noon, and met my family for lunch at Kerby Lane.  It was REALLY good.  We got to the hotel in San Antonio just before 3 and set up.  The kids went nuts in the hotel room as usual.  Luckily, we weren't here long before having to leave to go to dinner at Cha Cha's.  Yummy!  We had a great dinner with my Grandma, Uncle Ken, Aunt Becky, Uncle Vaughn, Uncle Gordon, Emily, Noah and Kaelyn!  I was SO VERY HAPPY to see Emily, and got a little choked up when I hugged her.  I have not seen her in FOREVER, and although we email and talk a LOT, it just isn't the same as seeing someone sitting in front of you.  Austin wanted to sit with Noah immediately, and Cody and Kaelyn became buddies QUICK.  They were SO CUTE!  Here are some of my favorite pics of the night!  I am so happy to be here!
