Easter Fun in College Station

Yes, we drove to College Station this weekend, with me as prego as I am. It wasn't too bad. It isn't too far, but now I am at the point where the swelling (everywhere) will not go down. My feet look like Elephant cankles 24/7 now...so fun. :) My fingers are like large vienna sausages....so you can imagine the fun of being pregnant in the humidity down here. Nonetheless...at least I could complain to my pregnant sister in law who drove 8hrs from Oklahoma...at 30 weeks pregnant! We were both swollen like watermelons! :) Her oldest daughter Emma, just kept staring at us laughing....:) something I will remind her of one day when she is pregnant!

We had such a fun weekend with our family. We stayed at Ben and Pam's (Nelson's parents) for the weekend. My sister in law Emmalee and her family (4 girls with a boy on the way) came down, plus My mom and step dad came down for Easter. (My mom came home with us to stay for a few weeks and help with the kiddos while I have little baby boy!)

The kids had so much fun all weekend. Grandma and Grandpa went way out of the way to make sure....but they sure enjoyed it. They played in the water most of the weekend....a pool, sprinkler toys, and a big blow up water slide they rented. We colored easter eggs, had a big easter egg hunt, played games, had a family home evening, broke a pinata....ate lots of yummy food, went to church to hear Grandma and Grandpa speak....and just had so much fun. It was so fun to spend time with our family since we don't get to do it often, and the girls had so much fun with their cousins....It was a great way for us to celebrate Easter!

Here are a few pics of the fun...and a slide show for the more patient.
