A Texas Sized Adventure!

We have 37 days before Maggie and I move to Seattle.   This thought is a little scary (okay a lot scary) so we are not going to focus on that right now.  

We are making the most of our Texas time and spending every minute we can with our favorite Texans!  

Last weekend, we drove to College Station to see our extended family, Andy, Angela, Owen and Grady, and the rest of the Phillips and Throne families.   Tyler and Andy have been best friends for 22 years!  Since Tyler is an only child, Andy and his not so little brother Matt, are the closest things to brothers that he has!   Needless to say, we love the whole Throne and Phillips families a lot!

We had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed being there for Grady's 1st birthday party.   Grady is such a happy boy!  He loves his Aunt Nicole and thinks she is pretty funny.  



We did not want to leave our family on Sunday so we decided that we would kidnap, Owen Roy, to ensure that his parents visited us again in a few days.   We put sunglasses on Owen in hopes his parents would not recognize him.   And it worked, we borrowed Owen for 4 days.   

This is where our Texas sized adventure began.  




Owen, Maggie and I started out on 5 city adventure in 4 days!  

 First, we toured the Denton Fire Department!



We shook hands with some very high level officials! 



This is Maggie and Owen with Baltic, Denton's 1st K-9 Arson Investigator!

Next, we went to visit Tyler and see how Tyler spends his day at Recaro.  Owen and Maggie soon discovered that working at Recaro is not as hard as Tyler says it is.   

  



The next day we received the best tour ever of a Cedar Hill Fire Station! Owen's Pa Pa Jack is a Italian Chief, I mean Battalion Chief in Cedar Hill. :)  We got to see all the wonderful fire trucks and look around the whole station.   We had a blast!!   We even got to bring along my sister and two more nephews!   It was an amazing day at the fire station.   We love Chief Throne and his whole staff!  







After the station we took a quick run through the sprinklers in Cedar Hill!  



After all that we were exhausted but who wouldn't be with that Texas sized Adventure!  






Now, I am going to take a nap!

Love,
Nicole
