This past weekend we made the trip down to the river. Jason's dad and family were spending some time there so we decided to join them for a few days. We had such a good time and as always, the boys loved hanging out with Hannah and Maya. 
On Saturday we went into Gruene and ate at the Gristmill. Here are Hannah, Hudson, Maya, and Cooper out in front of the restaurant.
We spent a lot of time outside and we were blessed with wonderful weather. It was certainly hot but we had lots of shade and a good breeze.
Most of Sunday was spent outside, on the river. Luckily for us, the river was really low. This was bad for the tubers because it took forever to float down the river but it was good for us because there were lots of shallow areas for the boys to play. These rocks are usually under water and the kids were able to walk across them and splash around.

Hudson and Hannah. She was such a wonderful aunt!! She really helped us out a lot with the boys. 

Our evenings were spent hanging out, letting the kids play, and working this crazy hard puzzle (it was a 1500 piece Coca Cola puzzle that ended up being a 1498 piece puzzle because 2 pieces were never found!)
Kayaking down the river

Our first night there we saw this beautiful sunset.

The kids played so hard during the day! At night, they rested with a little movie and then off to bed. They stayed up much later than normal but they slept later the next day- which was nice!
On Sunday night, Carey and I were hanging out on the back porch and we saw 6 deer.
We packed up and headed back on Monday afternoon. None of us were ready to leave. We can't wait until we get to do it again!
