Our Visit in Houston April 2011

David had a conference in San Diego in April. He wanted to take Tamara with him so she could visit with her family so they invited us to come and spend the week with Evan and Jared. They took baby Jacen with them so he could get to know his California grandparents. We jumped at the chance and really enjoyed our week with the boys. We had a couple of days with the whole family before Dave and Tamara left. We attended Evan's T-ball game where Dave was helping him learn the finer points of the game. Watching 5 year olds play T-Ball is great entertainment.
Sweet baby Jacen getting loves from his Mommy!
On school days we helped Evan get to the bus stop in the morning and met him there in the afternoon when he came home. We took Jared to preschool on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday and picked him up when he was finished at 11:30.
One of our favorite things to do during our visit was to take walks around the lakes in their neighborhood. We would usually walk in the morning and then after dinner we would go for another walk.
We loved watching and feeding the baby ducks on our walks around the lake.
Kenneth enjoyed walking with Rocky. Here he is actually running with Jared and Rocky!! Rocky would go crazy with excitement whenever we got his leash out to go for a walk.
We enjoyed attending Jared's end of the preschool year graduation and program. Jared will be there another year so he wasn't graduating but he did a very good job singing the cute songs with the other kids.
Jared received a special scrapbook of his preschool year from his bonding buddy teacher. His preschool is at the high school and the program trains the students in early childhood education so each of the children have one of the students as their special buddy. It is a great program.
We ended each day with stories and songs. Sometimes even Rocky joined us.
