Well, we have said all summer that we needed to do a family getaway before school started. As the girls and I were driving back from Shreveport Shawn and I got to talking that we really wanted to leave town either that night or the next morning so we didn't have to deal with continually getting thrown out of our house when realtors came to show it. We didn't want to drive very far, we didn't want to fight crowds, and we wanted to girls to be able to swim. We also knew that to them, staying in just about any hotel was about like going to Disney World! We randomly decided on College Station. Most people would probably say "Why in the world would anyone(who is not an Aggie) go to College Station for a getaway?!" Well it proved to be perfect! We have been dying to get over there to eat at Abuelo's anyway so Saturday morning we got up, ate breakfast at Denny's and hit the road! On the way there I called and got us a hotel room and as soon as we got to town we hit Wal-Mart for snacks and pool toys and then it was SWIMMING TIME!!! The girls had a blast at the pool, we came in for a nap and then it was on to dinner at Abuelo's and dessert at Cold Stone. Can it get any better?! Anything went on the trip...as soon as Braelyn rolled out of bed on Sunday she brought me a bag of Cheetos to open! Never would I let her pig out on Cheetos for breakfast but without a moments hesitation, I opened the bag and she was off and running! It is times like this that I just wanted to freeze time!

| So it wasn't just chips for breakfast...it was before bed too! BEST VACATION EVER!! |
