And some more Texas stuff

Let's see, where were we? Oh yes, we went to Austin to visit some cousins!



T and Nora adored having so many little people to play with them. Below are Teresa, Declan, and Ciaran, followed by Nora with Maire and Aine.







T loved their play kitchen and all the cool accessories so much, she was crying and complaining when we left. Little did she know we were leaving to go to an awesome bounce house.

As you can see, they all had a blast. The next day we went to Aislinn's neighborhood easter egg 'hunt'. The eggs weren't so much hidden, as they were strewn about the grass to be picked up as quickly as possible. Teresa, Ciaran, and Rowan were all in the same age group, and they all had a great time getting eggs and candy. Uncle Curtis was nice enough to help T out, so I could take some pictures.

After the egg hunt we got to meet the Easter Bunny! Tressa has definitely gotten over her fear of people in bunny/santa/whatever outfits. The bunny was relieved to hear that all those kids weren't from the same family. As if a bunny has much room to talk about stuff like that.







We had a blast in Austin, but we loaded up and went back to Boerne for the rest of our visit. T started getting sick on Sunday, and we ended up taking her to Urgent Care the next day for an ear infection diagnosis, but she still had fun doing an egg hunt in the backyard. She even found two of them with no help!

Before church:



The hunt:



This was cute, after we emptied out all the eggs, T grabbed some of her candy, hopped off the patio chair and started looking around. She held out her arms and said "where meow?". When she couldn't find the cat, she put some of her candy in the cat food bowl, to share.

And then here are some more pictures from the rest of our time at Granny and Grandad's house:

Hahaa! "As if a bunny has room to talk..." I love it. Oh, I wish I coulda been there hanging out with everyone, too! It looked sooo fun. Sweet of lil' T to share her candy with the kitty :) The b4 church pic is adorable. I love their little dresses, and Nora just looks SO perfect... I love the little expression on her face! T's expression is also pretty awesome... ;) You look great, too! Oh, and N smiling at Maire and Aine! What a big grin! Bet it was hard to leave all those fun cousins...
