Took a Little Trip

Last month Madelyn and I joined Conley and Summer on a trip to Grapevine, Tx. This was our first time to meet Conley's dad and step-mom, Bill and Carol. It was a fun-filled trip and I'm looking forward to future trips.

 Madelyn loved their pool and was completely content doing nothing else.

 Dinner out at Joe's Crab Shack

 

The girls learning card tricks from Carol. We also spent one evening playing Gestures. It was so funny and I pretty much suck at it.
 
 We spent one morning at Lake Grapevine which is walking distance from Bill and Carol's house.
 The girls enjoyed the water and Conley and the girls took a little swim to and from an island.

 We had planned to go to LEGOLAND but there was an over two hour wait so we went shopping instead.
 Photo bomber, Summer.
 They may just have a modeling career.
 More pool time.

Geckos were out every night to eat bugs, so each evening we went Gecko hunting. They are fast little boogers and lose their tails when trying to get away. We ended up catching seven. They made the trip home with us. Well two basically were cooked to death in the back window of the car, but five made it home. The remaining lived for less than 48 hours. Obviously we aren't good at gecko raising.
