Texas bound

None of the children have been to Texas. The last time Arran met his grandparents, on James’ side, he was a baby, only six months old and the girls have never met them before. It is so hard when family is far away…our poor kids have grandparents they barely know, while friends all around them are surrounded by doting family.

This has been a long overdue trip, on Monday we headed to the airport for a new adventure. We flew into Austin, Texas close to midnight and exhaustedly arrived at our hotel and fell into our beds, finally, at 12:40am. Grandpa Jim and Grandma Betty would be driving to pick us up the next morning and a few hours of sleep were needed before then.
