Month of July in Texas!!!

We have been spending the month of July in Texas while we are waiting to move into our house in Gig Harbor, Washington. It has been nice to spend some time in Texas for the summer. We have spent A LOT of time in the water, especially in Grammie and Grandpa's pool. We spent the 4th of July at the Lake, playing on the boat and in the water! We have gone to the river a few times, went to Sea World, went to a few rodeos and rode horses, and especially enjoyed a lot of time with family and friends!


We went to Sea World in San Antonio with the Whitaker's one day! Elizabeth loved the Shamu show!!!

Point Defiance Zoo!

Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium is becoming one of my favorite spots!!! It is such a neat place to go visit, and the park surrounding it is so beautiful. You can see in the picture below that is is located on the point right at the water!
