Texas 2014

We are back from our yearly Texas trip!  This year Måns tried a fried Snickers bar, the boys discovered the joys of riding a lawn mower, we finally visited the Beer Can House in Houston, spent a lot of time with crabs and turkeys, had a stormy 4th of July and ate so many hamburgers that we couldn’t stand to look at them the last week.

Weight gained: 5 pounds
Injuries sustained: 5 (1 by Max, 4 by Leo)
Ice cream consumed: 30 scoops

Texas 2012

We are just back from spending a month in Texas visiting friends and family.  Temperatures were between 95-104 F.  We stuffed ourselves with things like fried cookie dough, Peanut Butter paradise ice cream at Amy’s, funnel cake, donuts and many, many hamburgers.

Highlights of the trip – seeing dolphins, circus, swimming, 4th of July.  Low points of the trip – mosquitos , fire ants, paying 5 dollars for a locker at the swim place.

New experiences this year – watching t.v. at the gas pump, fried cookie dough, motor raceway and the unique culture that goes with it.
