Texans come to the PNW


These past four days were filled with three Texans coming up to the good old PNW, two of which the girls had never met. Shannon, my mom's niece, had won tickets and decided to bring Damian, her husband and Lauren, their daughter up to meet the girls and let Damian see Washington for the first time.

 Lauren, being almost two, seems to do well on planes. 


Here I am with Lauren for the first time.
After the first day with unpacking and getting settled, we decided to go up to Seattle and let the born and raised in Texas folk experience all the cold Washington has to offer. Visiting of course Pike Place Market, and strolling around at the bottom of the Space Needle. 





Since neither Damian or Lauren had seen snow of our mass proportion, we took them up to Longmire to play around. Lauren just loved all the snow. 


The Pools stayed for New Years, and Damian and I decided it'd be a good idea to coat bacon in chocolate and eat it. We both regretted it.

All in all, it was a pretty good trip. The girls met their cousin in law and second cousin, and Mom got to see her niece again. Now we're planning a San Antonio Christmas for next year.

We found she loves climbing
