The Woodlands


A week ago we made the trip to The Woodlands to visit my dad & Ann. It was our first time there since they had made the move so we were all anxious to see their new (temporary) place. It's a condo with 4 levels and many staircases so the kids had lots of fun exploring the new space. Their place is situated kind of right in the heart of the city so we were able to walk wherever we wanted to go which was nice. Matthew was immediately taken with whatever snacks/treats they had and asked for them constantly. Like any good grandparents would do they obliged. :)

We walked to the mall one morning and rode the merry go round and spent some time at the kid's play area. William seemed to like the ride even though he sucked his thumb through most of it.

That afternoon we hit the splash park, and Matthew totally loved it. He jumped right in there and had a grand time. William was not so smitten. He acted just like Matt did at that age--he touched the cold water and screamed like he was hurt and personally offended. Instead, William spent his time crawling around and taking a few tiny steps here and there.
It was a great visit, and we enjoyed getting to catch up with Dad & Ann and hear about their recent adventures and view ALL of their fantastic photos! I can only hope we get to do such amazing travels one day. Thanks for a great time, guys, and get ready because Matthew is already planning his next visit!
