Grandparents came to town!

January has been all sorts of exciting with Bryan's promotion and both sets of grandparents coming to visit.  My parents came at the beginning of the month.  Both girls were out of school for winter break and we were able to have lots of fun checking out the area.

 One of our first stops was Salado, Texas.  It's a cute little city with antique shops and a fun water feature.  

It got a little chilly in our house, so we used our wood fire place for the first time and the girls roasted marshmallows.  

 We played games at night when the girls were asleep.  Dad got really mad at Bryan once over a game called Cover Your Assets.

 We played at Urban Air (grandpa included).

 We traveled to Dallas to go to an indoor water park called Epic Water.  It was really cool and reminded us of a lot of the swimming pools in Europe.

We had to make a stop at Buccee's- the biggest gas stations in Texas.  It is more than just a gas station.  They make amazing fudge, BBQ, and beef jerky.  They also sell clothes, toys, kitchen ware.  It is amazing.  Just don't expect to go there with car trouble, they don't sell anything for that!

 One of our last adventures was a trip to the zoo

 and the Sillos in Waco, Texas.
