I FINALLY get to hug Robyn!

Robyn and I met in a myspace "mom's group" when Olivia & Isannah were just months old. Who would've ever thought you could connect with a complete stranger over the internet? Okay well I guess that happens a lot these days but not to me. But here we are almost 3 years and 2 baby boys later and Robyn is one of my closest and dearest friends! Our family left Houston and flew to Denver to meet The Riggins' over memorial day weekend. We spent the day at The Denver Zoo and ALL had a blast! We can't wait for them to come visit us next summer!

Houston & The Pittman Wedding

In May we set out on our long anticipated journey to Houston to see our dear friends Bryan Pittman and Suzy Knight get married! Both of our kids traveled very well given the long day of connections and layovers we had traveling both there and back. This was Tavian's 1st flight.

We were thrilled to get there Wednesday afternoon and spend the evening with our friends and family BBQing at Bryan's house. Our luggage finally joined us at the hotel at about 11pm that night ;o) Quyen was a groomsmen and was busy busy with the boys most of the trip. We stayed at the most wonderful hotel- Sugar Land Marriott Time Square. Time Square is a darling area with shops and restaurants galore just steps from the hotel so we had a lot of fun hanging, swimming, grabbing cocktails and eating out. Our friend Shannon even watched the kiddos for us Thursday afternoon while we went out to Japanieros Sushi Bar with some family and friends (D'lish! One of my personal highlights of the trip). Most of our clan went to the Astros game that night (Quyen took Tavian to his first MLB game) while Tonia and I took the girls' swimming in the rooftop pool. We all had a blast!

Marcus & Tav

The next day the boys went golfing and then to the dress rehearsal. Tonia, Sara, Shannon & I took the kids to Galvaston, TX. The drive was worth it! We had a lot of fun just being at the beach. Some of us did get a little too much sun that afternoon. ;o) We got back into Houston just in time to get ready for the rehearsal dinner at Suzy's parent's home. What a gorgeous setting to celebrate with everyone! We had an incredible time...

The wedding day...

We had to leave the festivities a little too early with the kiddos but wow! What an amazing ceremony and a fabulous reception! Olivia & Tavian were BOTH tearing up that dance floor :o).We had such a great time the entire week. Thank you Bryan & Suzy for being such gracious hosts. We love you both so much and wish you the very best in life together! The next morning we all met across the street for brunch. It was a great chance to visit and say our goodbyes to friends and family. We can't wait to go back and visit soon!
