Giving thanks in Texas!

This year we headed to Texas for Thanksgiving for some family fun with Landon's sister, Hillary and her family. It was lots of fun! We flew in on Thanksgiving day and Link did pretty good for his first time flying, but there were definitely some struggles...they do not make those planes baby friendly. There is NO place to change a diaper, at least not on the plane we were on. We made it there all in one piece and Heidi had dinner all ready by the time we got there. It was delicious. :) I love Thanksgiving.
Later that night we headed to downtown Houston where Santa appeared and they had a firework show. The word on the street was that Santa was going to parachute off of a building but sadly he didn't, he took the safer route I guess and just waved from a stage. The firework show was great! They went off right in between the buildings. Here is Hil, Jer and Iz awaiting the fireworks.

They had Christmas trees lining the whole road and they lit up when Santa came. There were tons of people there!

Iz and Link were so cute together. Izzy would jump on the bed and Link would try and crawl after her and then they would both scream.

We took a trip down to Galviston and saw some of the damage that had been done when the huricane hit. Jer spent a lot of time there helping clean up right after it hit so he showed us around. It is amazing to me that a storm can do so much damage! After we looked around for a bit we spent some time at the beach. It was fun taking Link to the beach for the first time. He loved putting his little feet in the water. I'll be posting some more pictures of the beach on my photography blog so head over there to check them out.

The rest of the time we saw some movies, did some shopping and got some rest. It was a fun little vacation. We had a great Thanksgiving and I hope all of you did too!
