This Easter was great! Friday night Sam and I picked Dan up from work and we headed up to check out the progress on our house. It's really coming along.
After that, we went to visit with Dan's old roommate Adam and his wife, Kacie, since they were in town. It's so fun to see them and their little boy.
Next we started the 3-hour drive from Houston to Austin to stay with Adam and Yinelli (Dan's brother and his wife). Their family always keeps us entertained. They have such sweet kids and their kids absolutely adore Dan. It's really cute. They even had Dan waving around a princess wand and casting spells on them turning them into different animals.
The wildflowers in TX are supposed to be gorgeous so on Saturday we went to the LBJ Wildflower Center in Austin. Waste. Of. Money. I mean, the flowers were pretty but it was basically like going to a nursery. The weather was, however, perfect for picture taking. 
On Easter we went to church and then hid eggs for the kids and watched them go nuts. It was Sam's first Easter, but he didn't get a basket. Maybe next year...
On the drive back from Austin, we came across the most amazing fields of bluebonnets. Tons of people were out taking pictures so we decided to take some, too. Too bad the lighting was awful. Just 30 minutes later and I think it would have been perfect, but we were in a hurry to get home.
In other news, I took Sam to the neurologist today and the dr. said that Sam can stop wearing his helmet!!! YAY! I'm supposed to wean him off of it. So right now he's taking a nap without it on for the first time in like 3 months, I think. Pretty exciting. I won't miss having to wash his hair every night and clean out the nasty smelling helmet with rubbing alcohol.
And lastly, Sam wanted to wish his cousin Carter a happy 1st birthday!
