Mamaw's Visit

Mamaw and Uncle Tripp made the trek out to Houston from Tallahassee and Monticello this past weekend. Daddy and Uncle Tripp have an annual "Brother's Weekend" every year, and this year they decided to take the new boat to Austin. Austin is just 3 hours from Houston, so Tripp planned to come here and he and John would tow the boat together. Well, much to my delight, Mamaw (also known as Mary Frances; John's mom) decided to tag along and spend the weekend with the kids and I! We had a great visit. We went to the zoo in the sweltering Texas heat, made fish and shrimp tacos, played for hours on end in the backyard, had lots of yummy "Mary Frances" salads, took about 300 pictures, and ended our nights with good wine after the kids were bathed, fed and put to sleep. Daddy and Uncle Tripp got back from their brother's weekend last night sunburned and exhausted, but SO happy to see Ashton and Emory. Mamaw and Uncle Tripp left this morning early, as Uncle Tripp was very anxious to get home to Aunt Angie and cousin Haley. Here are a few (and I mean a SELECT few) of the pics I took of Mamaw and the babies...
