Moving Day & Family Visit

July 15, 2011 - Moving Day!

We were super fortunate to have my parents and niece drive in from Florida to help us settle in. They met us in Katy as we drove in.


We enjoyed some fun in the sun as we watched the movers unload the trucks.

We were excited to see the moving trucks as they pulled up. They were only 4.5 hours late getting to our house in Austin that morning. So we spent much of the day hanging out in a house without any furniture :-)


Due to movers late arrival, the kids were up WAY past their bedtime. Haley finally tuckered out on Mama's chest.

Papa has been promising Carson a fishing rod for quite some time. And that is what he got! They went to Bass Pro Shops, bought a rod and real, and headed out for their first ever fishing trip. Here Papa is teaching Carson how to put the bobber on.
Instructions on how to use the fishing reel.
How to cast a rod.
Before the fishing trip, Papa had a casting lesson with Carson in the backyard.


I can remember those lessons with my Dad in our yard many years ago :-)
And off they go!

Have we caught one yet?

Too cute!

All of the lakes in our community are catch and release. We choose the one just a few blocks from our house. Unfortunately, none were biting this time.
