Spring Break 2012

We had a wonderful Spring Break. We went back to our hometown. I have not been home in almost two years! I cant believe it had been that long.  The kids and I left Amarillo on Friday at noon  and headed to Dallas to meet my dear friend  and her girls. The first thing the kids did was hit the pool!

The next morning Lego Land and the aquarium.

Lunch at The Rain Forest Cafe

We headed to Shreveport that night, where the spoiling began.

Girls Night Out at Painting With A Twist

This game  is called Wah Hoo, James family is playing playing it for generations.

Of course we played tourist. Doesn't he look like a big guy holding that gator?

We had to bribe James Henry to touch it and as you can see, he touched it with one finger!

The Lorax (that's a big group)

We spoiled our nephews by taking them toy shopping!

We went to my Dear Friend Ashley's house and the boys fished.

We enjoyed the view

We loved the family time and memories made

Going home this trip was so different for me. I really wanted it to be about spending time with the people I love. It was very nostalgic. I grew up there, survived there, Fell in love with and married James there, moved away, sought refuge there, and I love so many people there. Louisiana holds many memories for me and it was so good to go back and reflect on what God has done for me. It was nice to set back and see God's beauty, Louisiana is so beautiful. I thank God so much for carrying me through my life and for ultimately being my refuge and my light. I thank him for giving my kids so many people that love them.
