Road Trip Back East

My mother in-law was going back east to stay with Aaron's brother Collin and his wife who just had a new baby so my sister Kammie, Ellisa and I drove out with her in two day's and then flew home. It was such a fun trip, we loved seeing sweet little Adalyn she was a doll. Ellisa traveled great, we spent one day out there, and enjoyed seeing friends, great food, and family. Below are a few OK I mean a lot and lot of pictures of our trip going in backwards order. This all happened over memorial day weekend and Aaron and the boys stayed in town for the Father and sons camp out, they had so much fun, it was a great start to summer for all of us.

Texas, Cadillac Ranch

One great lesson I learned was to stop, My mother in-law had us turn around and go back after passing cadillac ranch so we could go and get pictures. I always find myself just going and going and never stopping to enjoy things as much as I should, this was such a simple thing but it really made me think.

Vega, Texas

This is where we stopped for lunch at DQ it was the only place around, and the town was so small.

The sun set was really cool I don't even remember what state we were in but it was the first time that I have ever felt real humidity, it was almost hard to breath, so weird.
