Marquez and Hilltop for the 4th!

Emily spent almost 2 weeks in Winnie this summer. I think she would have stayed longer if we would have let her :)

When it was time for her to come home, we decided to meet up in Marquez at Dana and Trey's house. We lucked out and Cynthia and the Penry's were at Hilltop (about 20 minutes away) ... so we had a GREAT time visiting with everyone.

Dana and Trey live out in the forest (according to Elliot) about 200 miles from anyone and miles and miles and miles down a dirt road :)

Their home is beautiful!!! The kids (and Lily) keep asking when we can go back for a visit ... hopefully we can sneak down before the summer is over (with Wayne this time!)

Family Reunion in San Antonio

Elliot spent the last week with Nana and Grandfather in San Antonio and before Nancy left I copied the pictures from her camera!

There are some from the weekend he stayed with them (while Emily was in Winnie) but most of them are from this week.

They rode the train, went to the Kiddie Park (looks like lots of FUN rides!), swam in their blow up pool, went to the toy store, went to the movies and just had tons of fun together! I don't think he was ready to come home and sure wasn't ready to hear the word NO yet ... LOL
